HOT SLOPPY JOE
This savory meat is ever so tasty! I loved it served on my favorite low-carb buns. It has a rich flavor and taste. Fantastic and I am sure you will love it, too! You could even serve it over cauli-rice or alongside cauli-mash and a green vegetable. You won’t be sorry if you try this recipe. This is an adaptation of a chef's recipe.
2 lbs lean ground beef (0.9 kg)
2 green bell peppers, diced
1 tbsp minced garlic (15 mL)
Liquid sweetener to equal 1 tbsp (15 mL)

This cookbook below is a collaborative effort between low-carbing friends and thus the name, "Low-Carbing Among Friends". Those were giddy days as we were a big fish in a small pond and now it is just the other way around. Nowadays we are competing against thousands of low-carb cookbooks and many Kindle cookbooks are being given away for free. However, I believe in our cookbooks and I love using them myself, and I hope others, too, will still get to enjoy them for many years to come! This is a beautiful collection of cookbooks, but I think the Anniversary Edition is the last cookbook I will write. All good things come to an end, as they say. It has been a fun ride and I have loved serving the low-carb community in this way. I will still continue with my blog and Facebook for a number of years into the future. I hope you will join us on this continued journey. It is my preferred way of eating, even although I can have occasional splurges in maintenance, I still return to low-carbing and usually have between 50 and 100 grams of a carbs a day.
This is a very large cookbook with 224 pages. If you even buy 1 cookbook, I would recommend one like this because you have a huge variety to choose from and from different authors as well. The book has been through 3 Editions (revisions). The recipes are sorted by category with each author contributing recipes. The recipes range from very low-carb (below 5 grams of carbs) to below 10 grams of carbs per serving. and it is safe to say most recipes are below 5 grams of carbs per serving. The recipes are also all gluten-free.
Many glossy color pages of photos (of which the greatest number of photos are in the Anniversary Edition; volume 11) are in the center of the cookbooks to inspire you to cook or bake something delicious for your family.

This is the second cookbook in the series, Low-Carbing Among Friends' cookbooks. It went to 3 printings and revisions. Helpful Hints again contains a wonderful guide to how much to use of the liquid sweeteners for 2 tsp all the way up to 1 cup. I also use this chart to refer back to occasionally when I am in the kitchen, although by now I mostly do the math in my head. There is a blurb about a number of different sweeteners and the best whey protein powder to buy. Dr. Steve Parker wrote an article about Low-Carb Weight Management: Tips, Stalls and Long-term Success. Dr. Parker is famous for his Low-Carb Mediterranean Diet for people wanting to do a healthy, low-carb regimen and it is also geared towards people with diabetes. You really want to look him up on the internet and buy his wonderful books. The Mediterranean diet has been proven to be one of the best diets on the planet and he went to the trouble of making a low-carb version. Awesome!!
This is another large cookbook with 224 pages and recipes from several authors, including my own son, who is a rather reluctant cook these days as he is a famous science fiction author (he goes by a pen name, Jasper Scott) and very busy. His cooking leans slightly more towards gourmet-style cooking. At the time Jonathan was taking on several jobs, even modeling, just to get by ... before he became famous. Being a part of our cookbook meant he received royalties, too, all of which helped him to live on his own in the big city. Also, in this cookbook are featured several great recipes from our low-carb friends.
