LOW CARB Crab Salad Stuffed Avocados
« on: June 23, 2012, 09:27:43 AM »

LOW CARB Crab Salad Stuffed Avocados



INGREDIENTS
½ florida avocado
¾ cup lump crab meat
2 tablespoons key lime juice
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 ½ cups butter lettuce
sea salt
cracked black pepper


Prepare a bed of butter lettuce on a lunch sized plate. Cut a Florida Avocado in half removing the seed by slightly axing a medium sized chef’s knife in the center and turning counter clockwise about 15 degrees to dislodge it without disturbing the soft avocado flesh. Rest the avocado half cut side up onto the bed of lettuce; then pour two tablespoons key lime juice over the entire dish. In a small bowl fold together precooked crab meat and a tablespoon mayonnaise. Use an ice cream scooper to scoop out crab meat and place it in the avocado void. Crack black or Caribbean pepper over the top of the dish to taste and enjoy.

   TIP – A can of drained tuna works well too, if crab isn’t available.

Thanks Umpa! :)
It just recently started moving again!

For a while there, I was beginning to wonder if it would ever move again.
But down deep, I knew that with FTS, it's not a matter of "if"... It's a matter of "when"! :)
What you do today is what matters!

I think I will make this for lunch tomorrow.
My husband has his own strength training business
It has the same method of the super slow/ concept 10.
He sort of follows a paleo low carb diet. But he eats
Frozen berries every morning! Probably he guessed
30 net carbs just at breakfast! But he complains every night
That he is depleted and weak! He works out
Once every 5 days for 20 minutes. He is not over weight
But he doesnt have energy! Could it be too much sugar
That makes him so depleted?

Yes.Carbs give you a burst of energy that burns quickly.Protein has a slow long burn time.Carb loading for athletes is a myth.Long distance runners use protein. ;)
