Like the other recipes I’m sharing, this one is low carbohydrate, healthy fat, with

  • no added sugar
  • no industrial bean/seed/vegatable oils
  • no refined grains

(this is probably obvious from the photograph)

Impact on blood glucose

As expected, when part of an overall low-carbohydrate, real-food thanksgiving meal, there was minimal to no glucose excursions, as measured by a continuous glucose monitor

Brussels Sprouts and Bacon

I’m posting recipes here because so many of the recipes I see that are labeled as “healthy” really aren’t, containing massive loads of refined food products, glucose, and fat.

As always, feel free to check my work in the comments.
