What's For Dinner?

[Carlawarla 1]

Hey Carla, I got the recipes in my instruction manual. They've got TONS of recipes. I'll post a few recipes for you. This recipe is for a 2 lb loaf. Let me know if you need 1 1/2 though.

Low-Carb Seed Bread

Water, 80-90F 1 cup + 3 tbsps

Heavy Cream, 90F 4 tbsps

Splenda 1 tbsp + 1 tsp

Salt 3/4 tsp

Flaxseed oil 2 1/2 tbsps

Whole wheat flour 1 1/4 cups

Almond flour 1 cup

Oat flour 2/3 cup

Brown rice flour 2/3 cup

Vital wheat gluten 1/4 cup

Flax seeds 2 1/2 tbsps

Sesame seeds 2 1/2 tbsps

Poppy seeds 2 1/2 tsps

Yeast, active dry, instant or bread machine 2 1/4 teaspoons

Place ingredients, in order listed (or whatever order your breadmaker recommends), in the bread pan fitted with the kneading paddle. In my understanding the difference between the low carb cycle on my breadmachine and the regular cycle is that the kneading and rising time is a lot less. For instance, the first knead was only 13 minutes instead of 28. Also the first rise is 15 minutes instead of 80. The second rise is 75 minutes instead of 31. Also, there is no third knead or rise like in regular bread. The baking time is also a lot longer at 85 minutes instead of 55.

This recipe might be difficult in your bread machine without the low carb function, but if you can time the cycles and change them it would probably work. Also, I'd probably play around with the seeds. I love sunflower seeds in my bread! Let me know if it works out. There are an awful lot of different flours in this recipe, but the oat flour can be made from rolled oats, just ground and processed, so you don't have to buy it specially! The vital wheat gluten you may have to go to a health food store for. I'm pretty sure that you can find it at Whole Foods if you have one.

Good luck Carla! These kinds of breads can be super tricky!

Super tricky and wow, the amount of ingredients! Yikes! I don't think I'm going to make this. I'm sorry...after you posted all that info too! You're sweet...but I'd have to go out and buy some things, and my cupboard is already jammed, but not with all those things.

We ate at Vivian's Vineyard on Friday night, and the company was so much fun. I laughed so hard I had tears running down my face, and almost peed myself. It wasn't the stories as much as the guy that was telling them. Gene and I split an appetizer of a crab stuffed portabella mushroom that was 7.5 inches in diameter! YUM!!! Then we split a burger served on focaccia bread. It was VERY good as well. We ate so late, and I hate that. We did however have a late night as well, so my food was digested before beddie.

We had a meat pie for supper last night, was delicious. Tonight before the concert we're going to have a spinach salad and some pasta for supper. At home mind you, so it'll be the best.

we ate here on Fri night.. it was pretty good.. their hummus wasn't amazing but the rest of the food was yummers.. and the bread.. ohhh the bread!!!

We tried the Doner kabab.. and it was super good.. I said to hubby "this reminds me of a donair".. to which he replied "Where do you think donair CAME from"?

The ambiance of the restaurant was the best part.. huge tables full of families, its a byob kind of place... we arrived at 7pm and our waiter said.. i know it's early, but we have a party at 9pm so you can't stay after then. I guess most people go and spend the evening eating there..

I am going to have to go there next time I am in CT. I drive right by it when I go to both my aunt's and my mom's house and have always thought, gee I should stop here, but I end up eating at other places in W. Haven. Have you been to Stowe's? Hubby loves going there for seafood.

I would recommend it.. it's not as cheap as Mamouns but it's pretty good..

Haven't been to Stowe's but I've been to Lenny's in Branford

Don't worry about it Carla. I find that most recipes for low carb or gluten free bread have TONS of specialized ingredients that you wouldn't normally have on hand. It's crazy to me that you need like four or five ingredients just to replace flour! I hope you find an easier, less convoluted low carb bread recipe!

MMMM Mamouns! When I come to CT for Xmas, my high school friends and I all get together and go there. This year though, we are staying in NH for Xmas, so no yummy Mamouns food

I'm on the board of a non-profit organization that currently runs an after-school program for kids in a neglected area of town. We hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for them and their families tonight and on the menu was: smoked turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, green beans, gravy, and dessert. The kids made the bread and butter from scratch -- they did a great job!

[Marilyn. 340]

speaking of Thanksgiving I did my shopping today.. I didn't need a lot of things because the Sister-in-law is taking care of most of it..

I am in charge of the chocolate trifle, I always make and the mashed potatoes...

I am glad I went today instead of waiting til Wednesday.. the store would have been crazy then...

[Cassie 8]

I hear you Marilyn, I am going tomorrow morning for that exact reason!

I decided to make some biscuits with the chili and they turned out to be YUMMEH!

I made that chicken and stuffing casserole, I think it was BH who posted it. Tres yummy. And hubby and I ate raw carrots with it just so I could tell Carla I had a vegetable
