Whipped cream and berries is low-carb. Cream has little carb to speak of,

and if you sweeten it with a tbsp raw honey per cup and a little vanilla it

doesn't add much. Probably good to have that with some protein.

One hint on bacon: I used to fry mine. Makes a mess and takes

forever, esp. if you like it crispy. THEN I discovered:

put your bacon on the broiler tray. Bake in the oven at 350

or so, til it is done as you like it. Place it in a bag or

container in the freezer, and take them out as needed. You

just warm them slightly in the toaster oven or with your

frying eggs and they are done! I cook 1-2 lbs of bacon at

a time.

I cool the fat from the bacon, freeze it, then chop it into

blocks and keep it handy for frying breakfast.

By " broiler tray " i mean that pan with slots that usually

comes with your oven. It is really good for fatty stuff --

the fat goes below and doesn't catch on fire.

Right, that's why they don't put bacon in air conditioners.

Oh, it's late but I get it.

however.. would bacon grease on a condenser unit increase or decrease your

appetite?

We know it would smell great.

I think it's a stretch to call it _low_ carb, but it's certainly lower in

carbs than most other things people eat.

Well if you leave out the honey it is pretty low carb. A cup of

rasperries for example has about 8 net carbos, IIRC

The honey would probably add six or seven. A cup of cream whips up to two

cups of whipped cream if it is good heavy cream, so a tbsp ends up being 1and1/2

tsp in a cup of whipped cream. If you use a third of a cup of berries and

two thirds of a cup of whipped cream, you're probably getting like 7g carb

total.

Yup,

that is definitely low carb :-)
