Makes about 30 or so meatballs, at a trace carb each.
Ingredients
2 lbs Ground Turkey or Pork or one pound of each
1 ½ cup crushed spicy pork rinds
1 tablespoon Chinese Five Spice Powder
2 tablespoons Dark Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Fish Sauce (optional)
2 tablespoons Sesame oil
½ teaspoon Splenda
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
2 or 3 stalks green onion, finely minced
½ cup Shitake mushrooms, stems removed-- soaked, dried, minced finely.
Mix all ingredients well, place into baggie and refrigerate overnite.
Form into small 1 inch diameter balls.
When ready to cook, you have three options:
Fry them in a skillet with a little peanut oil, till done.
Drop them into hot Asian-style flavored soup, cook and serve with the soup.
Bake them at 350 degrees in oven for about 30 minutes to 45 minutes.
These are WAY YUMMMY. Good snack food, works as a main dish. You could also serve these with Shirataki noodles and a low carb peanut sauce.

Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts
(Raven's Tweak)
Ingredients:
Brussels sprouts
olive oil
salt and pepper
Hungarian Paprika
granulated garlic
nutritional yeast and/or Parmesan Cheese (Kraft Type in the box)
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Slice the sprouts in half lengthwise, removing any loose, outer leaves and trim the bottom stems.
Toss sprouts in a little bit of olive oil and and add spices. Make sure the sprouts are well coated. Spread cut side up in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. (use nonstick foil.)
Bake 400F for 30-40 minutes, or until browned and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Sprinkle with a bit more Parmesan Cheese and serve. Sometimes I also sprinkle these with Mitmita which is Ethiopian Pepper -spice.
Serve these immediately- - these are best hot. (my roommate and I had these as a sub for taters, along with cauliflower popcorn when watching a movie the other night!) This was great the next day for lunch. This is also great finger food for parties, served with a nice dip, like a Tzzikki sauce.
