Baked Boneless Chicken Wings with Buffalo Sauce

Much healthier than your usual fried chicken wings, you can choose to smother them in buffalo sauce or omit the sauce for chicken nuggets. About 2 dozen "wings".

Boneless Wings:
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat and cut into bite-size pieces
2 cups crushed pork rinds (for dredging), I use my food processor to pulverize the rinds into a breading consistency
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper

Buffalo Sauce:
2/3 cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce (or similar vinegar-based hot sauce)
3 tbsp. butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

You will need 2 separate bowls for preparing the chicken: 1 with the beaten egg, 1 with the crushed pork rinds and all spices. Dip chicken pieces in egg wash, then coat in pork rinds, coating completely and set on greased (I spray with Pam) cookie sheet. When all chicken pieces are coated, spray Pam on tops of all pieces and place in oven. Bake 15 minutes, then flip all pieces, and bake 10 minutes more, until chicken is cooked through. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine butter and hot sauce. Microwave to melt butter and stir to combine. Place chicken pieces in large mixing bowl and cover with hot sauce mixture, making sure to coat all chicken pieces.

Serve with celery, carrots, cucumber, and lots of ranch or bleu cheese for dipping!
Enjoy!

Vanilla-Almond Creme Brulee

Easier Than You Think Creme Brulee Recipes I have worked on several recipes and Del was nice enough to taste with me. ;-) She finally told me the other night that "I had perfected this", so now I feel like I can share! Extreme creamy custard on the bottom, and a hard, crunchy top layer of "burnt" sugar. "Creme Brulee" literally translates to "burnt creme".  The only "must" for this recipe is the custard cups- make sure you use heat proof cups designed for baking souffles or brulees and this recipe will be a snap!!

Teriyaki steak salad (my keto replacement for my old lettuce wraps)

Before starting keto, one of our favorite meals were Asian lettuce wraps. We would marinate steak in sugary teriyaki sauce and flash fry in a wok. Once the meat cooled, we would spoon rice into a lettuce cup, sp rinkle with  soy sauce and chili oil and pile with steak. Finally, we would add a few slices of cucumber to cool the heat from the chili oil. It was so satisfyingly delicious! I have been craving those lettuce wraps recently, so I decided to try my hand at recreating the marinade, making it Keto of course!  I decided to make it into a salad in order to add more vegetables to bulk it up since we aren't using rice. The final meal tasted better than our old lettuce wraps; I will definitely be using this teriyaki sauce more often! Servings: 4 entree size salads  Sauce ingredients: 1/2 cup tamari or coconut aminos 1/4 cup water 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 4 tablespoons Swerve Confectioners sugar (or sugar substitute of choice) 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1...
