Where can I pick up a copy of your cookbook Elina?????
You have some really good ideas. I would love to know how to make those PB2 pancakes, but, of course, if they have any sort of wheat, rye,barley or oats in them I won't be able to make them because of allergies to those grains.
Your dip also sounds really good and way less calories and fat dense than my homemade ranch. I like artichokes...YUM!!!
The protein crepes sound fabulous too! I could do a lot with something like that.
I ate a bowl of your green chicken soup last night. I swear, it made me feel full for hours. I was still full when I went to bed, 4 hours later!! It's really quite astounding, I am impresses at it's rib sticking properties. It is also very delicious and a keeper recipe. Thank you!
I bought cottage cheese yesterday, I wish I had bought ricotta. Next time I'll buy it. I want to make some of eggfaces recipes. It's been a long time since I've made them......and there are some great recipes on her blog.
I won't do apples till I'm done losing, but I could stuff those crepes with warm strawberries sweetened with splenda. Strawberries are low carb/calorie, and very doable.
Thanks again Elina!

Trish, here is an idea.
Strawberry Protein Pancake (soy, dairy & grain free)Makes 1 large pancake
or try this, you might want to substitute PB2 for the peanut butter:

or try something like this for the crapes, I would not use the butter, I would use spray and maybe one egg and two egg whites.

There are so many options out there. I hope you find the ones that really work for you. Have a fantastic Sunday. Take care.

Oh man.....these are some FANTASTIC ideas!!!!! And I have the ingredients. I have ground flax seeds, almond flour, cream cheese..etc.
This reminds me of the low carb days of cooking, except, nowadays, I also need to make them less fat and calories.
Thank you so much. I'm making the almond one for lunch today.
