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
At the start of a diet, people most certainly look at food store and big brand food items labelled 'low in fat'. To do this is far too often a miscalculation, in that an item could be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless elavated in calories and carbs.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet tips:
* You can make delicious smoothies using reduced carb yogurt.
Admittedly, you can't really call it cooking, but if you must have smoothies you can throw them together with reduced carb yogurt and fruit. Obviously, you should ensure you use fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use the whole fruit as the fiber is beneficial.
* Fiber is essential
Decreasing the carbohydrates in your diet usually leads to fiber reduction as well. Check for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
