Broiled Asparagus

If you haven't been using your oven broiler, you should. It's a great way to cook meat and veggies very quickly.

Broiled Asparagus

1 bunch of fresh asparagus
olive oil
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
freshly ground Parmesan cheese

-First snap off the tough woody bottoms of the asparagus (1-2 inches from base)
-Place asparagus on a piece of foil and fold the sides of the foil up (about 1/2 inch). This will prevent any oil from spilling out
-Brush olive oil on asparagus
-Season with a pinch of salt and pepper

Broil for 4 min, then flip each asparagus over.
Broil for another 3 min.

Place asparagus on plate and garnish with fresh Parmesan cheese.

Waffles

Found this recipe on a low carb forum and it's great! I changed a few things for SCD. I know pork rinds in a waffle recipe sounds kinda weird but they are actually really good.

"Wonder" Waffles

8 large eggs
4 Tbls. heavy cream (scd) or yogurt (scd)
4 Tbls. water
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup honey
4 ounces of crushed pork rinds
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
6 Tbls. melted butter

Use a food processor to get the pork rinds down to a fine, almost powdery consistency.

Beat the eggs then add the cream, water, vanilla extract, honey and cinnamon and beat some more. When well blended mix in the ground pork rinds. Let the mixture sit for a couple of minutes until it thickens. Then stir and check the consistency. It should be quite thick, but not to thick to spoon easily. If too thick, add a little water. If too thin, add a little bit more pork rinds. Just before you're ready to put into waffle iron, stir in ~1/3 of the melted butter.

Brush the top and bottom of the waffle baker with some of the remaining melted butter, then spoon about 1/4 cup of batter onto the waffle baker.

I usually taste the first waffle to see if more honey is needed.
This recipe will make eight 4x4 inch waffles.

These waffles will firm up and brown just like "real" waffles.
I eat them with bananas, honey-syrup and sometimes scd whipped cream.
