Whole30 Cauliflower Soup with Sausage

I often experiment with recipes (hello, I’m a food/fitness blogger).

Often those recipes don’t turn out.

They end up dumped in the trash, caked onto my pans, and I’m sent back to the drawing board to create the recipe I have in my head.

But sometimes, those recipes turn out on the first try, and when they do, I share them with you right here.

This Whole30 Cauliflower Soup with Sausage soup was so good on try #1 that my husband even went back for seconds! It’s Whole30, Paleo, THM:S, Keto, Low Carb, and Dairy Free. How’s that for good-for-you soup?

Trim Healthy Mama Pumpkin Cake Roll – Cream Cheese Filling (THM:S, Low Carb, Ketogenic, Grain Free)

Pumpkin Cake Roll – Cream Cheese Filling

Ya’ll! This is my first new pumpkin recipe of the season, which is weird, because it’s 85 outside as I’m writing this, I can’t help but think “Whatever, it’s #pumpkinspice season and I am Here. For. It.”

I’ve done a couple of cute pumpkin recipes in the past because I like working with the ingredient, like my Pumpkin Spice Creamer (THM:S) but I’m getting serious with this Pumpkin Cake roll with Cream Cheese Filling.

Are you ready?

I am so excited to share with you today!

I LOVE pumpkin season, and having a 3-almost-4 year old to share the excitement with makes us almost like giddy schoolgirls together. The hubby doesn’t share my enthusiasm for all things fall, winter, and the holidays, but my little blonde sidekick sure does!

I try not to jump into fall recipes too early, but the leaves around here are turning and it just feels like it’s time. It is after labor day, after all, which means I can’t wear white, but I CAN start putting pumpkin in everything.

Trim Healthy Mama Pumpkin Cake Roll with Cream Cheese Filling

Author: Gretchen

Prep time: 20 mins

Cook time: 40 mins

Total time: 1 hour

Serves: 10 servings

Ingredients

For the Cake:
2 cups Almond Flour
¾ cup Coconut Flour
½ cup Vanilla Protein Powder
1 T Baking Powder
1 tsp Cinnamon
½ tsp Salt
1 tsp Ginger
¼ tsp Cloves
¼ tsp Allspice
1½ cup Pureed Pumpkin
4 Eggs
½ cup Melted Butter
½ cup Milk or Almond Milk
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Filling
16 oz Cream Cheese, Softened
½ cup Truvia

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325 and line your jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Using your largest KitchenAid bowl (or a large bowl if mixing by hand) combine the dry ingredients: Almond Flour, Coconut Flour, Protein Powder, Baking Powder, Cinnamon, Salt, Ginger, Cloves, Allspice. Mix well.
Add the Pureed Pumpkin, Eggs, melted Butter, Milk and Vanilla Extra to the dry ingredients and mix well. The batter should be easy to spread but not runny. It it's runny, add ¼ cup more almond flour and mix well. If it is thick, add ¼ cup milk and mix well.
Spread the batter evenly in the jelly roll pan (lined with parchment paper) and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the cake is set and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let sit for about 7 minutes, or until the cake is still warm but not cooled.
While the cake is cooling, mix up the filling:
Warm the cream cheese up so it spreads very easily, then thoroughly combine it with the truvia.
Using the parchment paper, remove the pumpkin cake from the pan and set it on the counter. Spread the warm filling evenly over it, then start rolling the cake from one end. Pull the parchment paper off of the cake as you roll so that non is trapped inside the roll.
Refrigerate the cake roll (covered) for 3-4 hours, or until it's fully cooled and set up, then slice and enjoy!

xoxo,
Gretchen

Fathead Pizza Crust (Ketogenic, THM:S, Grain Free, Low Carb)

September 14, 2017 Leave a Comment

If you haven’t made my Fathead Bagels yet because you’re intimidated (I was!) I have a MUCH easier Fathead recipe that doesn’t require a lot of rise, and honestly, would be fine even if it came out crunchy:

Fathead Pizza Crust.

Honestly, whoever came up with the idea of melting mozzarella and turning it into dough is a genius! An absolute genius.

After making my Fathead bagels, this recipe is a piece of cake, and great to use for my Keto BBQ Chicken Pizza, or whatever your favorite pizza is.

Because it’s made from Fathead dough, it’s best suited in a Keto, THM:S, or Low Carb setting. [Read More…]

11 Vegetables You Can Spiralize (+ Recipes!)

September 7, 2017 Leave a Comment

Last summer, I discovered spiralizing, this amazing technique where you take vegetables and turn them into noodles.

Seriously.

Noodles made out of vegetables, but still….how amazing!

Even better, there are so many vegetables you can spiralize, it’s super easy to do, and spiralizing vegetables elevates them to a whole ‘nother level that I didn’t even think was possible.

Hate vegetables?

Love pasta?

You need to start spiralizing! [Read More…]

Copycat McGriddles (Ketogenic, THM:S, Low Carb)

Keto Copycat McGriddles

THM:S, Ketogenic, Low Carb, Grain Free

Last week I made these awesome Maple Keto Waffles, but like every recipe I create, I wasn’t ready to stop there.

This is because one of my biggest cravings lately has been a McGriddle.

Healthy?

No.

Delicious?

Ummmm yeah.

The sweet and salty muffin, sweet sausage, and the salt and texture from the egg and cheese are SUCH a GREAT combination that it satisfies all of my taste buds at the same time.

But, a McGriddle isn’t on-plan at all, whether you’re Trim Healthy Mama, Keto, Low Carb, or on another plan. [Read More…]
