Tasty Treats!

We try--the emphasis is on TRY! to follow a low carb/sugar free food plan.  We have found many ways to cut out the amount of natural sugar we use in our meals--
this treat popped up on a webpage or a keto page--don't remember, but I thought I need to try that
and we love it!!

We use those carb tortillas for everything!  for tacos, fajitas, enchiladas, burritos, etc.
we can't tell the difference between these and regular tortillas.  Anyway--first you take a tortilla,
score it into fourths--just cutting up to the center--you have four sections
ready for the next step:

I couldn't find sugar free Nutella so settled for chocolate peanut butter (has some sugar but you use so little) and white chocolate squares --have used sugar free white chocolate and or dark chocolate chips 

One each forth smear the peanut butter, whipped cream cheese (in this case, I didn't have
cream cheese so used goat cheese instead--delish!), sliced strawberries in another section, and then the white chocolate square.

Here comes the magic!  fold each section on top of the other--I've worked out that
you need to put the chocolate square on the cream cheese, fold that over on the strawberries and etc. etc.
You have these neat little triangles of goodness!  Place one large square of butter in skillet, melt and
go for it--put those triangles in the hot butter, brown---all that inside will melt 
Hand food for sure!  dripping with chocolate, warm strawberries--awesome!
When I have no strawberries I use blueberries or any other fruit on hand--

Now, this method is not only for dessert but I've seen commercials using sliced meats,
lettuce, tomato, etc all folded into that one triangle.  I've wondered if you could do
this method to make a pizza! In the meantime, we're loving our dessert!
Here s a breakfast one--go have fun with your tortillas--what can you add to make this a truly wonderful stack.

Beginnings of New Year Ideas

I'm already thinking about the new year and new beginnings--2024 was a lost year as far as new quilt starts--there was not a one began. ...
