Turkey Breast Pinwheels Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
12 large flour tortillas 8 oz pkg cream cheese, soft 1/2 cup butter or margarine, soft 1/4 tsp fresh lemon juice 1/4 tsp ground white pepper 1 sprigs of fresh dill, or 1 dill pickles, cut thin spears 1 large pk moist smoked salmon, thinly sliced
Recipe
Preparation
Mix together cream cheese, butter, pepper, and lemon juice. (I do this in the food processor). Spread the tortillas, one at a time, with this mixture. Lay the smoked salmon slices, slightly overlapping, over the cream cheese mixture, leaving one edge of the cream cheese uncovered (this acts as the "glue" to hold the tortilla together when rolled.) Lay fresh dill sprigs or dill pickle spears down one edge; starting with this edge, roll up tightly, "gluing" tortilla together at the end with the uncovered edge of cream cheese. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill, at least one hour or up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, unwrap and slice about 1/2" thick on a slight diagonal. TURKEY BREAST PINWHEELS WITH SUNDRIED TOMATO SPREAD Same as above, except substitute very thinly sliced turkey breast for the salmon, omit lemon juice from cream cheese mixture and add 1/4 cup oil packed sundried tomatoes, finely chopped; use watercress in place of dill. You may have tortillas left over, use the amount of spread for each which gives a uniform covering with no tortilla showing through, but also not to thick!! If you like capers, they are wonderful added to the spread for the Salmon pinwheels. (wrv)

Diet tips
In planning a meal plan, the important thing is to try to cut down your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some low carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Make reduced carb bread crumbs for breaded foods.
Although you can buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you may make them yourself by using reduced carb bread. Simply toast the low carb bread in the oven on a sheet of baking paper. Once it is well browned, grind it in your blender. Keep in an airtight jar or container.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, chives and spring onions)
The onion, leek and garlic range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe might be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is precious little definitive proof published, allyl sulphides are also believed to help with colds, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides also have a low calorie count, so you should add them to your diet system.
