The feature ingredient in this is pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seeds are natural pathogen (my PC term for parasite) killers. I've been reading about it and it's best to eat them raw which is why they aren't toasted in this recipe. "They" (the "pathogens") don't like cayenne either. My inspiration for the flavoring in this recipe is from a delicious Mexican hot chocolate drink where cayenne is combined with chocolate. It may sound like an odd combination, but it's really good! I want to warn everyone again though...I got pretty herxy when I hit the pumpkin seeds hard at first...and so...with apologies for being repetitive...don't allow yourself to go crazy or you might go into herx-ville. Based on the above backstory, I think I've named this recipe appropriately... Pathogen Nightmare Add the following two ingredients to a microwave safe bowl and cook on high for one minute...maybe one and a half. 2 ounces (half a box) of Bakers unsweetened cacao- 100%...this isn't the powder...it's the solid kind Two heaping tablespoons of coconut oil (the solid kind) Mix it together after it's out of the microwave and then add liquid stevia to taste. Add a sprinkling of cayenne pepper. Taste it and sprinkle more in (tasting after each sprinkle) until it has a nice kick but not so hot you won't want to eat it. Stir in two cups of raw pumpkin seeds and a half cup of chopped pecans (or other nuts) to give it some crunch Spread it out on a parchment covered baking sheet and refrigerate. This will break off in pieces like a brittle. Keto Count: There are 18 net carbs in the whole recipe, so figure how much you eat accordingly. Yummy for you, but nightmarish for the "pathogens." Love, Karen P.S. I felt pretty bad yesterday (herx-ville) when I went crazy on the pumpkin seeds but it must have done me some good because I woke up feeling better today than I have in a long time. P.S.S. Katherine...remember when you asked me to figure out an alternative to the Lily's chocolate? I've finally had some time in the kitchen and...voila! Here'a how you do it...2 ounces of Baker's Unsweetened (100% cacao) chocolate melted in a microwave safe bowl for one to one and a half minutes...stir...and add liquid stevia to taste. you can add pecans to this and replicate the Pecan Candy recipe without all the bad ingredients. | |||
