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!!

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.

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...
