    (British Style) Beans in Tomato Sauce Recipe – Make Your Own, Just Like Heinz

    April 20, 2017 /

    This is a knock-off recipe for Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce – British Style.  I have come to learn that the Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce recipe is different in the UK than it is in the US and Canada.  So if you are British, you’ll love this.  If you’re North American, give it a go anyway to taste the difference.  I’m still hunting for a North American copycat Heinz Beans in Tomato Sauce recipe, and will update this post when I find one, but in the meantime, I intend to use this one (I’ll just pretend I’m a Brit) 🙂 The British serve baked beans on toast.…

    Italian Chicken Patties

    February 18, 2017 /

    Clean eating chicken patties.  There’s only so many days in a row you can eat chicken patties when you’re on a clean eating regime – unless you do something to mix it up a bit.  Adding some tomato sauce and Italian spices gives chicken patties an Italian twist. No official recipe – its all very simple:  In a bowl combine 1 pound of ground chicken or you can use ground turkey. Mix in some tomato sauce, but not so much that the meat becomes too soggy to work into patties.  As part of our clean eating program, we low carb it, so that means you can NOT add bread crumbs…

    February 18, 2017 /

    For our clean eating program.  Very simple – combine 1 pound of ground chicken or turkey, chopped onion, a few tablespoons of apple sauce (not so much that) it makes the meat too wet to form into patties). Curry powder to taste – a table spoon or two. Form into patties and cook in non-stick skillet (only if necessary, spray very lightly with coconut oil cooking spray).
