Lunch
I picked up take out from Ribs 'N Things in Brentwood, MD.  It's across the street from our storage unit and every time I go over there I think to myself, I really need to try these ribs and things.  The gamble was worth it!  The building looks kind of dingy from the outside and there are bars on the windows, which is weird because it's in an okay part of town.The guy that took my order was chatty, and the food was ready in about five minutes.  I told them to go easy on the sauce and they put it on the side, which I appreciated.  The portion was so generous that I ended up putting half of it away for lunch the next day.  I will definitely be back.

Ribs and chicken combo included 2 ribs, 4 wings, and
choice of side for around $9.00















I always feel compelled to try the collard greens when I
go places, probably because I love them so much!  These
were exceptional.  I didn't even use the hot sauce.  
















Two low carb lunches for 9 bucks?  Not bad.

Roasted Fall Veggies

One of my favorite things about fall is the produce.  I love squash of all varieties, asparagus, and dark greens.  This recipe is incredibly versatile.  I like to make it with butternut squash and mushrooms, but you can sub in whatever veggies make you happy.  Also, I tend to use garlic powder and maybe Italian seasoning for my veggies, but almost anything will add a little flavor.  Play around and find something that makes you happy.


Ingredients
1/4 of 1 butternut squash
1 C mushrooms
1 bunch asparagus
1/4 of 1 green bell pepper
1/4 of 1 yellow onion
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
1/2 Tbsp garlic salt
1 tsp crushed red pepper

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425.  
  2. Peel butternut squash and chop into bite size pieces.  (Instructions for peeling/chopping butternut squash available here.)
  3. Wash mushrooms to remove any dirt and set aside to dry.  
  4. Chop onion and green bell pepper into bite size pieces.  
  5. Prepare asparagus, removing lighter colored, woody parts from the bottom and breaking top of stalk into two bite size pieces.  (Instructions for preparing asparagus available here.)
  6. Add squash, mushrooms, asparagus, bell pepper, and onion to a large bowl.  
  7. Add olive oil, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and crushed red pepper to bowl.  
  8. Toss with rubber spatula or your hands until all veggies are evenly coated.  If powder ingredients aren't sticking to vegetables, add another Tablespoon of olive oil.  
  9. Spread veggies out in an even layer on a baking sheet.  
  10. Place pan in oven for 10 minutes.  
  11. Remove pan from oven and flip veggies with a spatula.  
  12. Place pan in oven to roast for another ten minutes.  
  13. Serve hot.  Top with shredded Parmesan cheese if desired.  
Awesome boyfriend doesn't like squash or mushrooms so I have to put
all of those veggies on one side of the tray.
We are basically large children.  



































I was out of olive oil so I used cooking spray.  Not as delicious, but it
will work in a pinch.  




















































Serve with a burger for a yummy fall meal.

Roasted Butternut Squash

Butternut squash is one of my favorite things to eat in the fall.  It tastes kind of like a pumpkin but, in my opinion, is much easier to work with.  It has around 7 net carbs per half cup, so you have to monitor your intake, but it has a lot of fiber so it's okay to have once in a while.  I like to bulk it up with other veggies like mushrooms or asparagus, or I just like to eat it plain like you see here.


Ingredients
1 whole butternut squash
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  
  2. Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.  
  3. Cut the squash into bite size pieces.  Cut off skin with a sharp knife and discard.  
  4. Add the squash to a large bowl.  
  5. Add olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the squash in the bowl.  
  6. Using your hands or a rubber spatula, toss until all squash pieces are evenly coated.  
  7. Lay squash on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes.  
  8. Check for doneness.  If squash is slightly crispy on the outside but easy to bite into, it's done.  
  9. If needed, return squash to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes.  


The squash is a little bit tough to cut.  Make sure that you have a
sharp knife and a cutting board.  


While delicious, butternut squash can be a pin to prepare.  If you're unsure, here's a video to help you out.  I generally don't peel mine first, but if you have a sharp veggie peeler that is an option.  

Ranch Pork Chops

This is another in the list of recipes that I cook when I am on a budget.  I love pork chops because they are almost always on sale.  Usually they're something like $2.99 a pound at my grocery store.  Plus, they are pretty versatile.  You can season them with whatever you like and throw them in a pan or the oven and you've got a meal.



Ingredients
3 boneless pork chops
1 packet of ranch seasoning
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp butter

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium.  
  2. While oil is heating, remove pork chops from package and pat dry with paper towels.  
  3. Lay pork chops on a plate and sprinkle one side with half the ranch seasoning packet.  Make sure to rub the seasoning in with your fingers or the back of a spoon.  
  4. Flip pork chops over and repeat with the the other half of the seasoning pack.  
  5. Oil should be hot by this time.  Add pork chops to skillet and cook for 4 minutes on each side.  
  6. Check for doneness.  If pork chops are not done, return to skillet for an additional minute on each side.  
  7. Remove pork chops from skillet and lay on a paper towel to drain.  
  8. Serve hot.  Enjoy!
Notes

  • Resist the urge to turn your burner up past 6, or slightly over medium.  The first time I made these I did that because I felt like the chops weren't cooking.  I ended up with chops that were burned on the outside and not quite done in the middle.  
  • This recipe is really versatile because you can sub out the ranch seasoning and use whatever you like.  I've made these with garlic, Italian seasoning, and chili powder.  
You can find this in the salad dressing aisle.  It's an easy way to dress
up almost anything.  


















No flour needed.  The ranch will make that nice crust that you see on
the outside of the chops.

Awesome boyfriend and I picked up a sweet deal on Living Social to Mutiny Pirate Bar and Island Grille in Glen Burnie, Maryland.  The coupon was a great deal, but we will definitely be returning, coupon or not.  Sometimes I am skeptical of theme restaurants because the food can be hit or miss.  Everything that we ordered was truly delicious.  


Beer Steamed Mussels are yum.

The coupon we purchased was for two drinks, appetizers, entrees, and desserts.  I did allow myself to have one fancy cocktail, a watermelon cilantro mojito, that I'm sure had a million carbs and two million sugars.  It was sweet, tangy, refreshing, and worth it.  Everything that we ate exceeded our expectations both in terms of presentation and flavor.  I had the Beer Steamed Mussels, and then the Hanger Steak with green beans and sauteed spinach. For dessert we ordered a banana chocolate cake that was amazing.  I had a couple of spoonfuls before passing the rest over to the awesome boyfriend to finish. This restaurant is absolutely low carb friendly with several appetizer and entree choices that allow you to hold the bread, and lots of side dish choices.

Surf N Turf

Recipes that have multiple parts can be tricky.  If you don't get things started at the right time, the timing will be off and one part will be cold by the time the other is done.  If I'm cooking several dishes for a lot of people, I actually write out a schedule for myself of when things need to go into the oven/pan so that I don't forget anything.  I'm hoping that this recipe will help you get your surf and turf to come out at the perfect time for maximum deliciousness.

I really hate that this picture is blurry.  I need to invest in another camera that is designed for shooting indoors at
close range.  If anyone has suggestions I would appreciate them!
Ingredients
one pound Ribeye steak
two lobster tails, frozen or fresh is fine
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 Tbsp dry minced onion
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 Tbsp garlic salt
1/2 C olive oil
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp minced garlic
2 Tbsp capers
2 Tbsp melted butter for serving with lobster tails

Directions
  1. If your steak or lobster is frozen you'll need to defrost those before getting started.  Lobster tails can be defrosted in cool water.  Steaks should be defroster overnight in the fridge.  
  2. Preheat oven to 350.  
  3. Use a fork to poke holes over one side of the Ribeye.  Flip over and repeat on the other side.  
  4. In a large Ziploc bag combine crushed red pepper, dry minced onion, black pepper, garlic salt, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, ans Worcestershire sauce.  
  5. Add steak to Ziploc bag and massage marinade into steak.  Steak should rest in marinade at room temperature for 20 minutes.  
  6. Coat a glass baking dish with cooking spray.  
  7. Place your lobster tails in the baking dish with the legs down.  
  8. Top each lobster tail with 1 Tbsp minced garlic and spread it around with the back of a spoon.  
  9. Top each lobster tail with 1/2 Tbsp butter.  
  10. Sprinkle capers over the lobster tails in the dish.  
  11. Place lobster tails in the oven to bake for 20 minutes.  
  12. Once lobster tails reach the 10 minute mark, heat a skillet over medium.  
  13. Once skillet is hot (about 1 minute), remove Ribeye from Ziploc bag and place directly into skillet.  
  14. Cook for 2-4 minutes on each side, depending on desired degree of doneness.  
  15. Once Ribeye steak has cooked on both sides, remove from skillet and set on a paper towel to drain.  
  16. While steak is resting, melt butter in microwave for serving with lobster tails.  
  17. Lobster tails should be done by now.  Remove from oven and allow to rest for 2 minutes before serving.   
  18. Cut Ribeye steak in half to make two servings.  
  19. Add one serving Ribeye steak, one lobster tail, and melted butter to plate to serve.  Enjoy!
Notes
  • Lobster tails are one of those items that go on crazy good sales sometimes.  These were marked down from $10 each to $5 each at my grocery store a couple of months ago so I  bought them and tossed them in the freezer.  Keep an eye out and you'll be able to find some that are affordable.  
  • Lobster tails $10 + Ribeye $12 + Brussels sprouts $2 = $24 total for two surf and turfs.  Way cheaper than any restaurant.  
  • A one pound Ribeye is HUGE.  I like to cook it first and then cut it because it's easier to manage, but if you're cooking for one you could easily cut the Ribeye before you cook it and freeze the other half. 
  • Steak can rest in marinade overnight in the fridge if you want to prepare it ahead of time.  
  • To eat the lobster tails flip them over and cut straight down in between the legs with kitchen shears or a sharp knife. The meat will pop right out. 

Don't worry about adding oil to the pan to cook your Ribeye.  This cut
of meat will have fat marbled throughout that will render and
allow the steak to cook in it's own juice.  
























Marinade buddies.  You can play around to find different flavors
that you like.  




















I love Worcestershire sauce.  








































































































When your lobster tails turn this bright pink color they are done.  

















I'm not ashamed to say these came out of a box in the freezer section of my
local grocery store.  They were actually really good!


New Infograph: 14 Facts About Sugar

The more I read about refined sugar the less I want to eat it.  Studies have shown that it is more addictive than crack/cocaine.  It makes you fat, it makes you tired, and it's hard on your teeth.  This is new news to me, but this infographic says that it's better for you to eat NOTHING than to eat sugar.  I could go on and on, but I'll share this with you instead.

Anyone who has tried to quit sugar will tell you how hard it is.  I could fill up the entire surface of your monitor with a list of things that have sugar that I like to eat and have a hard time saying no to.  In the name of keeping it short, I'll tell you that my favorites are Sour Patch Kids, Pumpkin Spice coffee from Dunkin Donuts, Rita's Italian Ice, ketchup, Red Bull, and (my ultimate sugar weakness) margaritas.

I know it's hard.  I know it sucks.  But, you gotta do it.  Refined sugar is poisoning us and it's time to start saying no.  Does this mean that I'll never have a margarita again?  (Are you crazy?!)  Of course I will.  What it does mean is that I limit my sweet treats to a couple of times a month and try to save those times for holidays, birthdays, and other special occasions.

If you're having trouble quitting, you might be able to find some joy in this.  It takes about two weeks to break a habit.  I feel like I should be honest and tell you that it was more like six weeks for me, and it was a long six weeks.  The upside is that I rarely crave sugar now.  I might have a spoon full of peanut butter or a carb control yogurt after dinner sometimes, but that is all I need.  Another benefit to think about is that things will start tasting sweeter once your body adjusts to not having refined sugar all the time. Things like berries, wine, dessert cheeses, diet sodas, and heavy cream all taste much sweeter to me than they did before I cut the carbs.

In today's world of instant information, there are endless sugar free dessert recipes to choose from.  Power pudding, sugar free hot chocolate, and this Low Carb Milkshake are some of my favorites.
