Is Jello, Good for You?

Jello is a popular dessert that is made of gelatin, water, sugar, and artificial flavors and colors. Gelatin is a protein product derived from animal collagen, which has some health benefits, such as improving skin and hair health, gut health, joint health, and sleep quality . However, jello is also high in sugar and low in fiber and protein, making it an unhealthy food choice . Artificial sweeteners and colors may also have negative effects on your health . Therefore, jello is not a very good food to eat regularly, especially if you have diabetes or other health conditions. You can make your own jello with natural ingredients, such as fruit juice, honey, and unflavored gelatin, to enjoy a healthier version of this dessert

Fried Green Tomatoes

 

Can you guess what I'm going to be making, tonight for dinner?  You got it.... "fried green tomatoes"!  Just starting getting tomatoes out of my garden and this plant wasn't handling the heat too well, so I saved the tomatoes, before it finally bites the dust.

CAULIFLOWER BREAD BUNS

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 cups finely riced raw cauliflower florets (cauliflower should be riced until they resemble coarse/large crumbs; 3 cups will be about 1/2 of a large head of cauliflower but it's best to actually measure it out)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup shredded parmesan or mozzerella cheese
• 2 tbsp almond flour
• 2 tbsp coconut flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp dry Italian seasoning herb blend or taco seasoning
• 1 tsp white sesame seeds, substitute poppy, chia or hemp optional

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400F. In a large bowl, combine cauliflower, eggs, cheese, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning. Mix with a large spoon until everything is thoroughly mixed. Mixture should be wet but not liquid.
2. Grease the cavities of a muffin top pan. If you don't own a muffin top pan, you can also make free form ones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicon baking mat.
3. Measure out 1/2 cup lightly packed cauliflower mix. Dump onto muffin mold or onto baking sheet and press down on the middle with the palm of your hand. If you are using muffin top pan, evenly spread the cauliflower across the mold and compact it down slightly with your knuckles or fingers so that the crumbs of the bread will be tight. If using baking sheet, press down on mixture with palm of your hand and then spread and shape to form a round disc 4 inches wide and slightly more than 1/2 inch high. Compact down the cauliflower mix gently with your fingers or knuckles so that the crumbs of the cauliflower buns will be tight. Sprinkle tops of bread buns with sesame seeds.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden and cauliflower breads are completely cooked. Use a thin spatula to gently loosen the bottoms of the cauliflower breads (I recommend using a good silicone cookie spatula which usually has a very thin edge that glides easily underneath.) Allow breads to cool slightly before eating.  Borrowed recipe from Kirbie's Cravings.
