Additional contact methods: Twitter: twitter.com Here’s a recipe to try for those people outside the first two weeks and can have coconut. This recipe came from Jennifer Eloff recipe that she posted on her blog, and was made courtesy of her. Jennifer is also the author of a number of GREAT low carb cookbooks. Here is a link to Jennifer’s sites: www.low-carb.us www.sweety.com Here’s a link to the original recipe: low-carb-news.blogspot.com I reduced and changed the sweetener amounts slightly to lower the total carbs and reduce the sweetness. Ingredients: 8 oz Cream Cheese 1 1/4 cup coconut milk 1/2 cup Granulated Splenda 1/4 cup Truvia (6 packets) 1 tsp Xanthan Gum 1/3 cup cocoa powder 1/2 oz unsweetened dark chocolate, thinly sliced 1. Beat cream cheese thoroughtly in food processor. 2. Add coconut milk, mix well. 3. Add remaining dry ingredients, pulse until smooth and scrape the sides as needed. 4. Finely slice the dark chocolate, and sprinkle over top. Chill or eat immediately. Makes 5 servings. Nutrition Info with Granulated Splenda: (for 5 servings) 175 Calories; 15g of Fat, 10g Total Carbs (3g Fiber = 7g Net Carbs); 6g Protein.

    @yeshualovesu2 All-fiber bran buds (9g) are pretty low carb per serving. If you are google low carb granola you’ll find a couple recipes as well.

    My wife has me buying coconut milk just to make this dessert every month or so. She really likes it too..

  5. aprildawnbooks says:

    That would be great with some whipped cream on top.

  6. bowulf says:

    Yep, that would be fine replacement…

    Would the ThickenThin/not starch thickener that netrition sells work in place of the xantham gum. Recently I couldnt decide which one to go with and bought the thickenthin which is pretty expensive so I hope it will.

    I just made this. Luckily, I only made one serving because I inhaled it. It is so good. Too good in fact.

  13. bowulf says:

    I hear you there. You might want to check out my 3 minute chocolate cake recipe, which is Induction acceptable.

    i can’t wait til induction is over because i will be making this, just went to the grocery store today and bought the cocoa..lol

  15. bowulf says:

    Most grocery stores with a health department will have it in there. It’s a bit spendy $10 for 3-5 oz, but you use very little each time. I personally bought mine at either Ebay or Netrition internet store.

    Where can I find the Xanthan gum??

  17. bowulf says:

    One of the goals of the Atkins Diet and low carbing is to reduce or eliminate most of the refined sugars, flours, and starches, which would include corn starch. This is due to the impact on your blood glucose levels and insulin release. In a non-low carb lifestyle, corn starch would be fine.

  18. dudeman1109 says:

    This may be a dumb question but would a little bit of cornstarch+water be a good substitute for the xanthan gum?

  19. bowulf says:

    Not on Induction — find yourself a Acceptable Foods List for Induction and memorize it. That way you will absolutely know.

  20. alkiller1992 says:

    hey hum just one question can i eat fresh coconut? or can i have the water from coconut? atm i’m in induction so i don’t know if i can have or not i don’t know if i’m allowed to even eat it thx

  21. Pelonetillo says:

    damn, that probably tastes soooooo good. i can just imagine the creamy, fatty consistency of the coconut meat all ground up. yummy… thanks for these vids, man. you are a hero.

  22. bowulf says:

    Outside of Induction, you can eat as much as your amount allows. During Induction, you are limited, but even at half a lemon how much juice did you actually consume probably not much more than what’s allowed.

  23. SuccessXS says:

    but do not consume lemons or lemon juice after that at all? just had some chicken tonight cooked in lemon juice, about 1/2 a lemon. not a good idea? thanks BO.

  24. bowulf says:

    You are allowed a tablespoon of lemon/lime juice each day, and that is about 3g of carbs on Induction.

  25. SuccessXS says:

    BO, whats the deal with lemons, do they have any carbs in them? thanks much.
