Damn it... all the good conversations are deleted!! :P anyway... making Low Carb Chicken Cordon Bleu for lunches.. (from Peace + Love + Low Carb) INGREDIENTS 1 lb. Chicken Breast- Trimmed of fat and cubed 3 Tbs. Butter – Salted 1 Large Head Cauliflower – Cleaned and trimmed ½ Cup Chicken Broth 12 oz. Ham – Diced 4 oz. Onion – Chopped 3 oz.

Once chicken is browned on both sides, add ham, onion and mushrooms to pan. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking until onions are translucent and soft. At the same time, steam the head of cauliflower (whole) in chicken broth, in a covered sauce pot over high heat. Steam until cauliflower is fork tender. Drain chicken brothand leave cauliflower in hot pot. This will allow some of the excess moisture to evaporate. Once nearly all of the liquid is evaporated, fork mash the cauliflower.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to low and simmer – About 10 minutes. Stir frequently. In a 3 quart 9 x 9casserole dish, combine cauliflower, meat mixture and sauce.
