I've been cooking this recipe since I saw it on here last April. It has become a family favourite was even requested for Christmas day...it's so yummy big thank you!!Dave's creamy, parmesan cabbage!!!
Just made this up to go with the slow cooked pork belly I had for tea. I also did courgettes fried in olive oil. It was delicious, you've got to try it!!!!
I used two sweet heart cabbages, just what Aldi had in.
Take out the cores and slice them length ways, heat a large pan then add cabbage. Add a small amount of water (just enough to create some steam), cover and cook on full heat for 4 or 5 minutes, you want the cabbage wilted but with still some bite.
Take off heat, add a decent knob of butter. a glug of cream and some mustard to taste, (I did a teaspoon), mix thoroughly and put back on the heat, grate some fresh Parmesan on, as much as you want, salt and pepper to taste.
Delicious, I could have ate a mountain of it!
Just need to come up with a low carb sauce to cut through the belly pork fat, needed something sweet and acidic. Although the Sauvignon Blanc did a good job at doing that LOL
You could even add some pancetta or streaky bacon to the cabbage for a low carb carbonara!
Hope you give it a go.
Where do you get the meringue pieces from?Re: Low Carb Recipes.
Low carb meringue pudding:
8 pieces miss meringue chocolate pieces (0 g net carbs)
50 g fresh blueberries or strawberries (6/3 g carbs)
1 tbsp of extra thick cream (? carbs)
scattering of chopped nuts and seeds
Just had this and it was so delicious, these meringues are actually nicer than sugary ones, they aren't as sweet. In the ingredients list total carbs are 8 g in 13 pieces but 2 g is fibre and 6 g sugar alcohol from isomalt I think.
Or you could download evernote from the app store, its free, and use that. I cut and paste all my recipes into that, inc the piccys if any are included.Never thought of that, Doh!! Good one
What does everyone know of or think of using stevia?Place for all those delicious recipes.
This link is to Dlife recipes,an American site.Some good recipes but be aware they count their carbs differently to us.

Freezing would stop the juices going rancid. I can't see why not.Can I freeze meat juices? I'd like sauce to add to the slow cooker as that's my preferred cooking method and my fussy kids seem to enjoy it too!!
Thanks for sharing that. I'll start putting that in my morning chia pudding.Read the other day that there was a test in America about people with diabetes. They did a study on Diabetics eating apple pie, when tested they could not understand why blood levels had come down. It was nothing to do with the apples or the pie, the fact was it was the cinnamon they put in it. Now they are saying diabetics should put cinnamon in there food, if it helps I will certainly try it.
I bought guanthan gum powder about 18 months ago, I can't remember what for!..... I really don't know what to use it on, so any info would be great.....do you think it's still good? I seem to remember that it was expensive. I'd appreciate your comments.Hi Debmcgee, i make my own gravy using the meat juices and bits from the bottom of the roast tin,just add 1 pt of boiling water to them , keepit simmering until its reduced by half,add seasoning, then use guanthan gum powder ,mix it as directed and add to your gravy to thicken
