Index:  Don’t eat too much meat ( I eat about 2 oz per meal but generally only have 2 meals) because cancer is fed by 2 primary fuels – glucose (carbs) and glutamine (comes from protein & MSG).

1. BACON mini meatloaf ROLLS – can cook in muffin tins in cupcake liners as small individual meat loafs.

• 1 # hamburger
  
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 c cream
• 1/2 slice of almond bread (or 1 unsweetened low carb muffins) I keep some frozen in freezer and just get one out for meat loaves or meat balls or hamburgers
  
•  1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  
•  1 teaspoon salt
•  1/1 c shredded cheese (1/4 c can be Parmesan)
• 4 teaspoon pepper
• 6 strips bacon

Combine eggs, cream, spices in a large bowl and mush it together.  Then add cheese & meat make a 6″ shape. On a large sheet of wax paper, lay 3 slices of the bacon side by side. Set one of the beef rolls crosswise at one end of the row of bacon strips; roll up, wrapping the meat with the bacon. Very carefully place the first roll in a 9×13″ baking pan, lined with heavy foil,  or parchment with the ends of the bacon under the meat roll. I recommend lifting it with a wide spatula so that it doesn’t break. Bake at 375º 45-50 minutes or until the center of each roll reaches 160º. If the bacon doesn’t look browned enough on top, put the beef rolls under the broiler or in convection oven for few minutes.  Makes 8 servings 

Beef & Vegetable Soup: I make the following in crock pot.

Sauté then add to crock pot:

• 2 T oil
• 1 large green bell pepper
• 3 slices of celery sliced
• 1 T tomato paste
• 1 T Thyme

then put the above in crockpot with following

• 2 c beef broth (Kettle & Fire broth is good)
• 2 c chicken broth
• 1/4 c tamari (gluten free soy sauce)
• 2 pounds beef chuck or blade steak
• 1/2 tsp salt

after the meat is cooked,  sauté the following then add to meat & stock:

• In 2 T oil sauté following
• 1 1/2 c chopped celery
• 12 oz white mushrooms
• 1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme or 1/2 tsp dried
• salt & pepper

3. Bell Peppers – stuffed – I often make this as a casserole with fewer bell peppers and they are cut in slices

• 6 green bell peppers with seeds taken out, boiled for 5 minutes
• 1 pkg of  frozen riced cauliflower.
• Heat 1 T olive or coconut oil in skillet.  cook 1/4 onion chopped, 1/4 c celery chopped, 1 tsp garlic.  Add
• 1# ground beef cooked, crumbled
• 1  c Rao marinara
• 1/2 -1 c heavy cream

put mixture inside bell peppers, top with  shredded cheddar cheese, bake 15 minutes.

4. Brisket Put brisket in a stock pot with onion soup mix that fits in oven.  Or in crock pot.   Cook it all day (8-10 hrs) at 275 degrees.  Cut it across the grain, make some gravy . Thicken with 1/2 tsp Konjac root (Glucomannan) or cream cheese & egg yolks gently added stirring constantly.

5.  Cauliflower & Ham Au Gratin

• 1 head cauliflower – steamed but don’t turn it to mush
• 1/2 c shredded parmesan
• 1 c a good cheddar cheese -shredded by hand
• 2/3 -1 c heavy cream
• 6 -8 oz cream cheese
• 1 # “off the bone ham” from deli that you can buy cut in 3/8″ -1/2″ slabs.  Then cut in cubes (many hams are cured with sugar so do not go for a “honey ham”)

Heat the cream cheese & cream in large skillet and mash the cream cheese adding the parmesan until it thickens.  Add the cheddar cheese. Cook cauliflower, cut in slices about same size as ham, cut up ham, add to skillet with cheese mixture, Put n 8×13 pan.  Top with Parmesan and grate some more cheddar to put on top.  Don’t buy grated cheese because it often has flour in it.  Cook until the casserole is hot and parmesan is slightly browned.  You might need to adjust how much of the cream cheese sauce you need depending on the size of your cauliflower.

6. Chili

• 1# ground beef – cook and crumble
• 1/2# sausage- cook & crumble (optional)
• in 4 T oil (olive or coconut) sauté:

• 1 sm can chopped green chilis
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 -2 T bean dip to thicken – this has some carbs but it thickens chili.
