I do a lot of sausage and beans type stuff. I'm not sure what "low
carb" for you is, though.


I don't have any recipes, but I tend to do 1:1 meat bean ratio, usually
with an onion thrown in and sometimes spices.

It's kinda bland and it's around a stew consistency. Sometimes i top it
with cottage cheese.

I know it sounds weird, but I like it.

I eat that all the time. Excep I use pork and not breakfast sausage. Pork
and refried beans with a lot of hot sauce and sour ceam is a great meal.
But this is Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage.

Beans are as high carb as it gets, though.

Not really because most are high in fiber and they also contain protein.
For most diabetics they work very well.

Crumble sausage into a skillet and cook til almost completely done. Drain
most of fat (or drain all of fat and add a little olive oil). Add a
sprinkling of crushed red pepper flakes, and chopped garlic if you wish:
cook briefly. Add chopped kale: stuff it into pan and push a cover down. Put
something heavy on top if necessary. Cook over low heat until kale reduces
and is somewhat tender. Remove lid and check liquid, degree of doneness. You
can add a little meat stock if you wish. Cook with top on or off, depending
, until kale is reasonably tender. Have a bowl. Add grated romano if
desired.

That does sound good. I like kale. If I can find some I will try it.

We don't eat a lot of sausage but when we do have it we usually just have it
for dinner. The sausage and a couple of vegetables. Makes for a somewhat
quick dinner.

I was thinking of Toad in the Hole, but he said he was tired of eggs

Classic English Toad-in-the-Hole
http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/cla...d-in-the-hole/

Serves 4-6

Preparation time: 1 hour

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup of plain flour
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup milk
1 Tb olive oil
1 lb of good-quality sausage (chicken, pork, turkey)
salt and pepper
1 apple, sliced (optional)
1 onion, peeled and sliced (optional)

````````````````
This isn't low carb, but it's tasty and people who are not low carbing
might like it. I made it as a galette, used ricotta and ends & pieces
of various cheeses that needed using up.

Apple and Sausage Pie Recipe
www.elise.com

Ingredients

1 basic pie dough recipe, rolled out and lining a 9 or 10-inch pie
dish, or 8x8 baking dish, chilled (or one frozen pie crust)
2 large tart Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 medium onion, chopped (about half a cup)
1 teaspoon sugar
3 Tbsp butter
3/4 lb sweet Italian sausage (bulk, or removed from casings)
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups shredded fontina, provolone, and or asiago cheese
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup feta cheese
2 eggs, slightly beaten

I can't imagine Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage in chili or minestrone. The
spices are all wrong. Meatloaf though is an idea. Trouble is to keep it
light you need bread crumbs. That's not low carb.

No you don't. I've asked about this on the diabetes food newsgroup and
plenty of people there put no starches in at all. I use gluten free oats.
Just a small amount and they are whizzed in the food processor prior. I
also add some ground flax seeds and baby food squash instead of egg. And a
ton of vegetables which have also been processed prior then cooked down very
well to the point where there is very little liquid left. I also add some
tomato juice or V8 or similar. Whatever I have in the house. I season this
with Italian seasoning but I would not use that for a breakfast sausage.
Probably wouldn't add any other seasoning except perhaps for salt and pepper
which I also add to mine. Oh and a lot of ketchup but you could use plain
tomato sauce for less carbs.

I shape into somewhat largish individual loaves. I top these with ketchup
or chili sauce which I would also leave off for that type of sausage. Bake
at 350 for about an hour on foil lined lipped cookie sheets for easier clean
up. Let rest for about 10 minutes before serving.

Now there's an inspiring substitution. I use baby food bananas in banana
nut bread when the ones available are not just right. Baby food packs of
applesauce are handy too but I hadn't heard of squash for an egg substitute.
I wonder how that would work in the recipe for a small skillet cornbread.

They could never be as "not right" as baby food. We fed our son
~12-15 jars of baby food total. You two are the TIAD Sisters.

I don't know. I've made cornbread from a gluten free mix that contains no
eggs and needs nothing but water and oil. Sadly they no longer make the
mix.

I don't use bread crumbs in meatloaf and I'm not diabetic or low
carbing. I hate bread in it because I don't like the taste and I
definitely do not think bread makes it "light", quite the opposite.

Maybe you overmix? I use fresh bread crumbs and mix it with a little milk.
Now if you use those packaged crumbs you get a brick.

I've found meatloaf made without bread tends to be pretty dense and tough.
Spinach helps keep it light as well. You had me going up to the baby food
squash. How does that work when the egg is a binder?

Chili sauce is good on a meatloaf.

The squash works very well. Just to be safe I have done individual ones
because I fear that a large one might not slice through. I am allergic to
eggs which is why I needed a substitute. And my daughter (although she is
getting better) and husband do not like to eat much in the way of veggies.
Daughter knows what all veggies I am putting in there because she has helped
me to make them. But my husband does not and if he knew, he just might not
eat them. He sees a big piece of meat and he loves his meat!

The loaves are very tender. I have a tendency to put too much veggies in
them and while those loaves are good, they do not taste as meaty as they
should. So I have to either wait until I have some small quantities of
veggies in the house or buy things from the salad bar.

The trick to getting them to work is to cook down the veggies until most of
the liquid is gone. If you don't they will give off a lot of liquid while
cooking. It might burn on the pan and they will not necessarily hold
together as they should. They will taste fine and the texture will be fine.
But you'll worry that your oven will get all dirty because they'll give off
that much liquid.

I should add that I only use good quality, grass fed beef to make this. I
don't grind my own because my daughter and I are not big meat eaters and I
don't need to store another tool.

Your imagination is not working to capacity. Add the spices you think are
missing! Add garlic! There's nothing so pronounced about ordinary
breakfast sausage.

Breakfast sausage is loaded with sage, not much but typical breakfast
fare works well; eggs, toast, pancakes, fried spuds, beans... and
there is nothing low carb about minestrone, without the beans and
pasta it's not minestrone. It's difficult to use sausage in an
interesting low carb meal, especially breakfast sausage... at least
kielbasa goes well braised with kraut. Bulk breakfast sausage works
well baked into the cavity of winter squash... *may* even work in
ratatouille, but far from the best sausage choice. It's called
breakfast sausage for a reason.

This has a very heavy sage flavor. Which I like. I cannot see it in those
dishes. Chili is made with beef chuck steak. Never had it with sausage.

Add good ground beef, onions and other regulars to make lots of well
seasoned meatballs. Freeze those to use at will for making
casseroles, spaghetti and sandwiches.

Breakfast sausage doesn't work in meat loaf or meatballs

Um, supposed to be low carb.

Hmmm ... I like it. I can eat a english muffin and keep it within my limit.
Hollandaise sauce would work. Spiniach and poached eggs on top. Sort of
like a florentime.

We may have a winner here.

Freeze the Jimmy Dean in portions for later when you are ready for
more sausage and eggs. Just be sure to wrap in plastic wrap and then
overwrap in foil. Pork, particularly pork sausage can easily pick up
other undesirable flavors.

What kind of sausage...?
Dago saw-seege is very good griddled with a mountain of peppers and
onions. Kielbasa coins are excellent in a garden salad or sauted with
spinach. I can't help you with the low carb brewski.
