Sugar Free Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Devil or Angel, Will You Be My Valentine?


Sugar free chocolate dipped strawberries.

Sometimes a recipe looks good on paper and totally bombs during execution. This is the story of a sugar free chocolate dipped strawberry that almost “wasn’t.” There were a few tense moments and curses coming from the SusieT kitchen. And had I been anything other than a cheapskate, tightwad, a nearly failed sugar free chocolate ganache would have ended up in the trash bin. But Denny and a quick google and voila! What happened next was so great; I simply had to share – just in case this ever happens to you!

I don’t cook desserts very often. Not only do we count every carb, but I feel our carb budget

Asparagus In Ghee

Spring Has Sprung - the “asparaguys” arrived!


Ahhh Spring! Asparagus and lamb - does it get better?

Asparagus In Ghee, such a simple recipe. Three ingredients – four if you add black pepper, five minutes, and bam, color you done. In return, your family will give awards and gifts for being such a swell cook. And you will fall in love with asparagus.

Asparagus, those crunchy, green stalks that herald spring, bring comfort. As one of the first vegetables out of the ground and to market in the spring, asparagus brings

Put Biscuits Back On The Menu

That’s right, I said Biscuits! And they’re low carb too!

I split these with a fork to get all the yummy craggy bits!
Yearning for a BIB (Breakfast in a Bun), but think it's impossible with a low carb, gluten free lifestyle? Fluffy Chix Cook is going to make your dreams come true. Enjoy a big, fluffy low carb, keto and gluten-free biscuit without guilt or cheating on your diet!

Diet? Diet? Who does that anymore?

What if I told you that I diet (Shhhhh! Yes I said the D-word, that dreaded four letter curse!), lose weight and chow down on a Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit almost every morning? Would you believe me or would you squeal like a little girl, again?

Home From The War

My new luxurious growth of curly black 'n white hair!
Hi Honey, I’m home! Sorry to be MIA for so very long! I simply can’t believe my last post was in October. Thank you for your patience and hope some of you have remained followers despite my reprehensible lack of upkeep here at Fluffy Chix!


I wanted to title this post, “What’s Black ‘n’ White and Red All Over?” (In honor of my salt & pepper locks and the radiation burns left on Ginger’s remains. Just look at that picture! I have little tiny hairs growin’ out mah head, my eyebrows and eyelashes are growing in again, too! Praise God!)

D Day or Should I say De-B Day Is Upon Me!

A few of you astute readers may have recognized that I have been conspicuous by my absence!?! I thought I could do it all: have breast cancer, go through chemo, work as much as my body lets me, deal with complications from chemo (i.e. infection), run this blog, and have a life. Sheesh! What's a girl to do, I ask you? I apparently dropped more than a few balls

Fat, Dumb, And Bald

Is no way to go through life, or so Dean Wormer says in Animal House


This is as much skin as the WPP (Witless Protection Program)
allows me to show. Funny, even though I have her haircut,
I still don't look like Sinead O'Connor. Wahhh.
 Ok. Enough!!! Let the veil of silence be shattered! Time for an update. And a recipe.

No. Recipes will have to wait till I don't feel like hurling toes or blowing chunks.

Update will have to do for now. Please continue your patience for a day or two longer?

Well, so here's the poop.

Fancy Pants Swiss Chard With Sun Dried Tomatoes, Pine Nuts and Garlic

Swiss Chard – An Anti-Cancer Rock Star

Few people south of the Mason Dixon can claim ignorance about “greens.” No, I don’t mean salad greens either. Salad greens = Iceberg Lettuce back in the day. We might see an occasional curly or red leaf lettuce but that was only after Mama and Daddy got

Breast Cancer

Sorry to everyone to be less than current on posts.

I've had some unexpected test results come in and it looks like I'm going to be battling breast cancer in the future months. I don't mind telling you that fear has me in its nasty grip and I'm up and down faster than a rollercoaster.

Waiting to get into the doctors and see what they have to say and how they want to attack this beast. And I can truthfully tell you its the wait of my life. I'm not feeling very motivated to work or post right now. What little sleep I'm getting leaves me in a state of unrest, anxiety and exhaustion.

So sorry to let you all down and hope you will hang in there for a bit and let me get my sea-legs with all of this news. I believe I will be posting more than ever once I find balance. I believe in the way I'm eating (well maybe "brown" will have to take a bit of a back seat in favor of green, but I believe I will still pursue a low carb way of life and will still pursue fats in favor of carbs and excessive proteins).

I will be back in touch soon to post a new flavor packed, sassy, Texan thread.

Blessings all around!

Food Porn Surfing

Surfs up! Begin surfing food porn NOW!

Sometimes teasing is better than eating.


BBQ Beef Rib, Grilled Italian Sausage, Revolution Roll Focaccia
with Bruschetta, Ugly Green Beans and Chile Lime Slaw
 Go ahead admit it. You like porn. Food porn that is…

Honk If You Love Food Porn!
So do I! Many would call us obsessed or doomed to failure because our life with food appears out of balance.

But I say, “Pish, posh, piffle!”

Surfing food porn doesn’t mean anything of the sort. It means we take pleasure in food and that’s ok. I believe God says, “That’s ok!”

Omelet Mess

Any Omelet This Big Has To Be Called An Omelet Mess

Find Printable Recipe Here

Omelet Mess - the omelet so big it threated to seize
control of the kitchen! So I ate it.
First off, let me get right to it. Omelet should be spelled with 2 “Ts” and 3 “Es”. It should look like Omelette. I’m just sayin’.

Now…second thing I’m gonna say? If more omelets looked like this picture, more people would be dreamin’ about their last big omelet in the same way we dream of other comfort food – oh say, chicken n’ dumplings for instance. But they don’t and we can’t.
