Easy Blueberry Cobbler - From Wheat-Free Market Foods

This is my wife's great interpretation of the Wheat-Free Market Food's blueberry cobbler!

Serves 6

Here is a quick and simple way to make a nice hot dessert that you can top with some whipping cream or low-carb ice cream.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups frozen blueberries
• 3-1/2 tablespoons Wheat Free Market Sweetener, divided
• ¾ cup Wheat-Free Market All-Purpose Baking Mix
• 3 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add blueberries to the bottom of a pie pan. In a small bowl, blend the baking mix with 2 tablespoons of sweetener then evenly pour on top of blueberries. Drizzle melted butter over cobbler followed by the remaining 1-1/2 tablespoons of sweetener.

Bake for 30 minutes or until blueberries are bubbly and the cobbler begins to brown. Then turn oven to broil and allow cobbler to brown a bit more. Do not burn.

Let cobbler sit at least 5 minutes to allow crust to set. Serve with low carb ice cream or whipped cream!

The cobbler should have just about 5-6 net carbs per serving!

Pizza For Wheat Bellies!

Wow!  This "Wheat Belly" friendly pizza is fantastic!

I didn't use a cast iron skillet like Wheat-Free Market Foods did in cooking their recipe, but whether you use a skillet and have ticket crust, or you use a flat pizza pan and thin crust, it's going to be delicious!

I followed the directions as outlined on the package of "Wheat Belly Pizza Crust Mix" in making the crust, but I added toppings that were more keeping with the online version, except I used Canadian Bacon instead of sausage.  Mine was a thin-crust, but I didn't have enough mixture to completely spread on the entire pizza pan.  However, what I made was outstanding!  It tasted so good, and filled that part of me that wanted to taste pizza.

Whether you follow the packing directions, or the ones below from the THIS LINK, you, and your "Wheat Belly" will be satisfied.

Serves 4

2 teaspoons olive oil for pan
1 cup Wheat-Free Market Wheat Belly Pizza Crust Mix
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon dried Italian Seasoning
¼ cup salted butter, melted
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
4 oz. mozzarella or sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Toppings

½ lb. Italian bulk sausage (I substituted Canadian Bacon)
½ small onion, chopped
½ bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup favorite sugar-free pizza sauce (optional - the lowest sugar content I could find was 2g, but I'll keep looking for sugar-free)
Other topping suggestions: Pepperoni, bacon crumbles and sliced olives (I added diced jalapeños)
4 oz. mozzarella cheese, shredded

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Oil the bottom and sides of a large cast iron skillet (approximately 10-11 inches) or the bottom of a pizza pan with olive oil.

In a medium bowl combine the pizza mix, parmesan cheese, salt and Italian seasonings. Then stir in the butter, eggs, milk and 4 oz. of cheese until a thick dough forms.

Using a spatula and wet hands, press the dough evenly into the prepared pan, going at least 1 inch up the sides. Note: If using a pizza pan, just press the mixture out into a 12 inch diameter circle. [I put my mixture between two sheets of wax paper and pressed it out for thin crust.]

Bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden brown. While dough is cooking, prepare the toppings.

Brown the sausage in a medium frying pan, being sure to break it into smaller pieces. Approximately halfway through cooking the sausage, add the onion and bell pepper and cook until the sausage is done.

Once the crust and sausage mixture are done, turn oven to broil and top the crust with the sausage mixture followed by the pizza sauce and cheese. Place pizza under the broiler until cheese has melted and slightly browned.

Cheeseburger Pie For Wheat Bellies!

Man!  I tried this recipe from Wheat-Free Market Foods, and I believe it's the best thing I've made and had yet! 

I was also down to 197 (from 225+), and completely off my blood pressure med!  I'm also not taking my metformin, but I'm still monitoring my blood sugar levels periodically.  I don't want to announce that I'm good that until I have my next A1C test.

Here's the recipe just like I found it on the website above.  You can also order all the "wheat-free/grain-free" ingredients from them.

Serves 6

1 lb. ground meat
½ large onion, chopped
½ - 1 tablespoon favorite Cajun Seasoning (optional...or instead use a dash of salt and pepper)
2 tablespoons chicken or beef stock or water
4 oz. cream cheese
¾ cup Wheat-Free Market All-Purpose Baking Mix
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons sour cream
½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Extra shredded cheese (approximately 2 tablespoons)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large pan over medium heat brown the ground meat and onion. As soon as meat has cooked and onions are tender (drain excessive oil if desired) add ½ tablespoon of Cajun seasoning, cream cheese and stock. Lower heat and stir until cream cheese has melted. Taste for seasoning and add more if needed. Pour meat mixture into an 8 or 9 inch pie plate.

In medium bowl blend the baking mix, eggs, sour cream, butter, and cheddar cheese. Pour batter over meat mixture and spread out evenly. Top with additional cheese and bake for 25 minutes or until biscuit layer begins to brown.

Let sit 5 minutes before serving.

Serve with sliced tomatoes or salad.

We also added a few Terra Exotic Potato Chips on the side.  They gluten-free and contain no wheat!

Breakfast Quiche - Mushroom - Bacon - Cheese - Wheat Belly Friendly

Let me say right up front that this "Wheat Belly" friendly breakfast quiche is AWESOME, but time consuming!  So, you may want to prepare the whole thing the night before, or at least get all the mixtures ready.  Or, you could work hungry as I did on this, but the effort, either way is well worth it!

It really helps if you have a helper on this one, there is a lot of mixing and finding ingredients.  However, once you've done it once, you'll be able to do it quicker on those hungry mornings!

This recipe came from Wheat-Free Market Foods, and this is my attempt at preparing.

Divide your activity into preparing the crust and the filling.  The are bought time consuming and are made up of several ingredients.  The ingredients should be on hand, IF, you have been following Dr. Davis' "Wheat Belly" program.  The crust is basically made up of the "Wheat-Free All-Purpose Baking Mix" that I usually keep made up in a canister.  You need his cookbook to get the ingredients of that mixture.  HINT: Breads are made from Almond, coconut, and flaxseed flours/meals. NO WHEAT!

The CRUST is made up of: (turn on oven to 350)

1 -1/2 Cups Wheat-Free Baking Mix

1/4 teaspoon sea-salt

1 teaspoon Virtue or Truvia sweetener (only Stevia extract, no other ingredients are "wheat belly" legal)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons of "real" butter

The FILLING is made up of:

4 slices of thick bacon (chopped)

1/2 small onion (finely chopped)

4 ounces of mushrooms (chopped)

1/2 teaspoon sea-salt

5 large eggs

3/4 cups heavy whipping cream

4 ounces shredded cheese (provolone or Swiss)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Prepare Crust:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl combine baking mix, sweetener, salt, butter and egg. Blend until dough forms. Place dough on a large piece of parchment paper. Place another sheet of parchment paper (or plastic wrap) on top of the dough and roll out until dough is approximately 12 inches in diameter (for a 9 inch pie). Remove top paper and carefully invert crust into pie plate. Remove any excess dough and crimp edges if desired.

Bake crust for 10 minutes then remove from oven.

While crust is baking, prepare filling.

Render fat from bacon in a medium pan. As soon as bacon is crispy, chop bacon and set aside. Leave at least 3 tablespoons of bacon drippings in pan and add onion, mushrooms and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook over medium heat until vegetables are tender. Turn off heat.

In a large bowl add eggs, whipping cream, cheese, remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, pepper, bacon and mushroom mixture. Pour mixture into the pre-baked crust and bake for 35 minutes or until center is set. Check crust around 30 minutes to make sure it is not getting too brown. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Get ready to "slap yo mamma"!  It's awesome with coffee, and maybe a side of fresh fruit!
