Low Carb Recipes

Hey ya'll. Here's some recipes that I used for my first day in Low Carb Hell. They were good so the end of the day seemed less like Hell and a little more just like Purgatory.

Tequila Lime Chicken
3 pcs boneless, skinless chicken breast
Kroger Tequila Lime Marinade
1 can Fire Roasted Tomatoes
1 can Black Beans

Poke Holes in the chicken with a fork and let marinate for 30 minutes in the Tequila Lime in a casserole dish.
After it's marinated, mix in the can of tomatoes and can of black beans (both drained).
Bake for 30 minutes at 350 (or until chicken is done.)


Low Carb Spinach Quiche

8 eggs
1 handful cheddar cheese
1 handful of Italian Blend Cheese
1/2 an onion
6 pcs turkey bacon
1 pkg frozen spinach (thawed)
1 tsp mustard pwdr
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/4 c grated parmesean cheese

Saute onion, turkey bacon and spinach together until bacon is cooked and onions are carmelized. Whip everything else together in large bowl and pour in the bacon mixture. Transfer to casserole and bake at 350 for 40 minutes, or until fork comes out clean.
(if you're not being too stringent on the carbs, I would add 1/2 and 1/2 or cream, to improve the texture. but the flavoring is spot on)

SIDE NOTE** DIETING IS HARD. everyone tries to say "oh its not that hard", "oh water makes you full, no problem!", "ohh veggies are delicious". NO THEY AREN'T. they are TERRIBLE and anyone who tries to tell me a salad is better than pasta/pizza/mexican/anything with bacon is a DAMN LIAR. I'm convinced these people have just been eating lettuce so long that they're brainwashed and they forgot what real food tastes like.
Thats all.
