Shrimp Cocktail Lettuce Cups are a delicious treat for dinner or game-day snacking.

Easy Turkey Chili with Peppers, Mushrooms, and Olives (Low-Carb, Gluten-free)

This Easy Turkey Chili with Peppers, Mushrooms, and Olives is my favorite new chili recipe! I first made this Easy Turkey Chili with Peppers, Mushrooms, and Olives nearly three months ago, and I put a few containers of it in the diet-friendly section of my freezer. Then every single time I pulled one of those containers of chili out of the freezer and heated it up for a quick lunch, I was reminded of just how much I loved this chili with ground turkey, green pepper, mushrooms olives, diced green chiles, and two kinds of beans, especially with a little sour cream and grated cheese, which I think is the best way to eat chili. Of course I already have a bunch of Healthy Chili Recipes that you could make for the big football game that's coming up (including my long-time favorite Black Bean and Beef Chili with Lime, Cilantro, and Avocado Salsa) and any of those chili recipes are good, I promise. But even if you don't make it for Superbowl Sunday, I hope you'll try this new chili recipe soon to see if you like it as much as I do. I still haven't decided what I want to make for the Denny Superbowl Party that's always at my brother Mark's house, but this chili is a serious contender.

Meet Kara, and Things I'm Thinking About on Tuesday (1-13-15)

Introducing my niece Kara, who helps me test the recipes so I know they'll work perfectly for you! I'm not sure why I've been so slow to share a photo of my gorgeous niece Kara, who's been cooking with me for close to a year now. I guess mostly it's that when she comes to cook, we're focused on photographing the food and not taking a picture of her. But a few weeks ago Kara's mom (my sister Pam) retired, and at the party I shot a good photo of Kara to share with you!

Low-Carb Pepperoni Pizza Chicken Bake (Gluten-Free)

When you need some low-carb comfort food, try this Pepperoni Pizza Chicken Bake! This new recipe for Low-Carb Pepperoni Pizza Chicken Bake is my gift to everyone who's been carefully watching what they eat during January and is now craving something that qualifies as comfort food. And although nothing might be quite as comforting as real pepperoni pizza, this dish is completely delicious and definitely scratches that pizza itch with something that's also low in carbs. (And if January is getting a little long, you can find more low-carb comfort food here.) I made this a couple of times with my nephew Jake to get it just right. The first time we didn't reduce the pizza sauce and the dish was too watery. We also tried it first with turkey pepperoni, which was fine if that's what you prefer, but this recipe doesn't take a lot of pepperoni and the full-fat pepperoni definitely crisped up a lot better. (It also adds more fat to the dish, but most of that fat is left in the bottom of the dish; if that's an issue for you I'd go with the turkey pepperoni.) We did use part-skim Mozzarella, which was perfect.

Baked Eggs in Canadian Bacon Cups (Low-Carb, Gluten-Free)

Baked Eggs in Canadian Bacon Cups is a fun idea for a low-carb breakfast! This recipe for Baked Eggs in Canadian Bacon Cups came about when I was hit with of those spontaneous creative cooking urges that pop into my mind, inspired by a package of Canadian bacon I'd purchased from Costco. I thought this was such a fun breakfast idea, and Canadian bacon is low in fat so it makes a healthy breakfast that would be appealing to kids as well as nice to to serve for guests. I ate mine with a piece of whole-wheat toast to dip into the egg yolk, but if you wanted a low-carb or gluten-free breakfast idea this would also be delicious without the toast.
