Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / February 2005Nut soup?
I need some extra fat for energy. I am glucose intolerant and I don't get any energy from carbs. my foods are not super fatty and I need some zip for my two 10 bike rides a day. I just started simmering ground nuts (almonds and hazel nuts and some coconut) with some salt water and some coconut oil and butter. a few berries in when it is thick. any otter idea's?

Steve, what is your objective in cooking nuts so elaborately? It's not that I am against it, but I do not see what is it that you are trying to accomplish.

I have a recipe for a great peanut soup - it's rich and creamy...great on a cold winter day. Can't really say that about a handful of peanuts, though. Sounds like what's he's trying to accomplish is creating a yummy soup from low carb, high energy foods. Lee How about posting the recipe? I'd like to have it.

TIA I'll try to remember to do it tomorrow. It's a recipe I made often before going LC so I'm not sure it'll fit the bill for folks here. But, it's delish. Probably can be tweaked a bit to at least lower the carb count.

I get pretty tired of nut butters. it's nice and creamy but still a bit too chewy.

I found this recipe for Peanut Butter Soup while searching for something else. I haven't tried it, but it looks interesting. You could substitute 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum for the flour to make it lower carb. If you try it, let us know how it turns out. :-) http://www.therecipebox.com/members/box/soup/sou0212.htm on Thu, 03 Feb 2005 19:32:20 -0800, Steve Knight <stevek@knight-toolworks.com> wrote: >kind of making a cereal to eat something different.

I did make the almonds and hazel nuts into butter and that worked ok. it thickened up ok and a few berries made a good soup.

Welcome to the round-off rules of US labelling laws. Pick a serving size so the carb count is 0.49 or less and you get to call it zero. Same with fat. They probably use little enough honey and berries that they only supply a bit of flavor, and then the probably pick a small serving size. Since pemmican is 50-50 dried meat and rendered fat the stuff has to be extremely fillng anyways so a small serving size makes sense for a change. >Try some pemmican. > >http://www.neanderthin.com/site/Order_pemmican.htm working on it (G) got the beef drying now.
