We found this recipe on allrecipes.com. A few changes and tweaks and using low carb tortillas made these great. As Angela explains in the original, there is a lot of work shredding the chicken and, for me, making up the individual portions was a little work. But, the result was yummy. Here is the original […]
This is a delicious soup in a southwestern style. The carb count low — even with corn and a few baked low-carb flour tortilla chips on top. We’ve added more veggies than the original recipe to bulk it up and cut the carbs. We also cheated and bought a rotisserie chicken at Whole Foods, shredded it […]

We didn’t do a great job in this soup — way too many carbs. But, you can see how we setup our soups and calculate the carbs. I still had this soup for lunch — just without crackers. You can top it with a little parmesan cheese. We make the soup and try to equally […]
You know you are eating comfort food when you sit down to meat loaf and mashed potatoes. We like this recipe and make little changes to it. Hope you enjoy this. Here is the original recipe: Meat Loaf disclaimer
