Struggle Kitchen Produced Bagel

Hey y’all,

So I had to tell you of my struggle this morning. My toaster has decided to give up the ghost and is not doing a good job of anything besides taking up space now. So this morning I decided to use my panini maker. I cut the bagel in half, well as best I could do. Placed the bagel halves separately on the panini maker and gently pressed the bagel, barely pressing it. Cook it for a few minutes and apply for favorite toppings.

Ten 2 Thin: #1 Red Onion Quiche (a Struggle kitchen production)

Now many people are probably saying, "now Ry! How can you eat a quiche on your diet?" Well it took some creativity but it is outstanding. Now it is a SKP recipe because, well the crust and the fact that I didn't have a pie tin like I usually make Quiche in. 

2 Low Carb Wraps

1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil

1/2 Medium Red Onion, Cut thin

2 Whole Eggs

4 Egg Whites

1/4 Cup Coconut Cream (or Almond Milk or Regular Milk . . . it is what I had)

1 Tablespoon Black Pepper

1/4 Cup Grated Raw Cheddar

Salt

In a Baking Dish or Pie Tin, coat with coconut oil. Then place one wrap one way and the other going the other way, press down, there will be some folds as it doesn't perfectly fit, just try to decrease them.. In a bowl add the Milk, whole eggs, egg whites, and Black Pepper stir together til it becomes one mixture.  Place some onions into the bottom of the crust, then add egg mixture, add remaining onion to top of mixture. Cover with the grated cheese, salt and pepper. 

In a 350 oven cook for 40-45 minutes or until the mixture no longer moves when shaken. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes then serve. It is great served with Fresh Cherries and is great reheated.

Struggle Kitchen Productions

Hey gang,

So I have told you that my kitchen here in GA has it's problems, I have affectionately called it the Struggle Kitchen, because cooking in it can be a struggle. For example, the burners need to be jiggled to work sometimes, the nobs occasionally come off the stove, not a whole bunch of counter space, and you can barely fit two people in it at a time. In addition to the kitchen trying to hold you back, with the family moving to another house while I stay up here, sometimes that pot or pan is in a different state you need. In my case, the blender I use for a lot of meals has moved to Florida, leaving me to use a small stick blender that struggles (notice the theme) to get the job done.

However, with all of this, I can manage to cook pretty decent dishes. So I want to show you a few recipes that have been born in the struggle kitchen.
