Banting Buttermilk Seed Loaf
Here's another LCHF bread and like the
Low-Carb Flaxseed Bread,

it's also light, but this loaf rises better and seems more like 'real' bread.

I served the pork chops smothered in sauce over Parsnip Mash with a Carrot & Capsicum Salad.
The pork chops also go well with Carrot & Turnip Mash, Cabbage & Onion Stir-Fry, Potato Mash or Cauli Mash.

Pork Chops with Creamy Mustard Sauce
Without thickening agents, LCHF sauces are generally quite runny - reduction is the key!
I developed this one which turned out really well.
You can vary this sauce by substituting the
* Cream with Greek/natural yoghurt, sour cream
   or cream cheese (full fat)
* Spring Onions with red onion, peppercorns
   (black or green) or mushrooms (fry until soft)
* Chicken Stock with any other type of stock
* Mustard with prepared horseradish or any other
   type of mustard
* Parsley with chives, thyme, origanum or any
other herb you prefer.

Baby Savoy Cabbage Cheese
Savoy cabbages are very low in carbs (5.2g) and are deliciously sweet & tender and hold their shape well when cooked whole.
These baby cabbages are smothered with a LCHF Cheese Sauce and sprinkled with cayenne pepper to give them an extra zing.

Low-Carb Bread & Rolls... to help with the LCHF Diet!

Low-Carb Flaxseed Bread

Deliciously light bread which you can also use to make rolls & muffins. Although this bread doesn’t keep for long, sliced bread can be wrapped in plastic, frozen to retain its freshness and then defrosted a slice at a time as needed. It toasts really well, too! Remember to grind the flaxseed just before making this bread as milled flaxseed goes rancid very quickly!

Low-Carb Oopsie Rolls

While not truly bread, Oopsie Rolls are softer and spongier and are more like a thick savoury crepe in texture. Use for sandwiches, hamburgers or hot dogs (without the stevia), or fill with whipped cream & berries for a dessert. Or use the entire mixture to make a pizza base & once cooked, top with your favourite pizza sauce & toppings before returning to the oven to grill.
