When my husband and I were in high school, the school had a spirit week featuring the basketball players before their sectional tourney. The theme was a candy store, and each player was assigned a candy or spin-off of his name or personality, etc. It just so happened that my husband and his brother were in the same grade, both Varsity starters and both had the last name of Reish.
Enter Reishes’ Cups. Packages of Reese’s cups pairs were everywhere in the spirit week store, made over with a new label—Reishes’ Cups.

*I make “graham cracker crumbs” with Joseph’s lavash. (All of my crusts, crisps, and crumbles are in my upcoming book next year by that same name!)

My pasta, lasagna, wrap problems have been solved!

Before you get too far into the recipes here on the blog (and I start getting messages telling me that erythritol is a bad sugar substitute or that whipping cream has too much fat or that sugar free jello is evil 🙂 ), I want to loosely define the word “healthy”—and give some caveats to the Healthy Mixes e-book series.
Every proponent of an eating plan thinks that their eating plan is the best, the healthiest, the most nutritious, the most effective. And every follower of said eating plan will tell you why the others are bad…not healthy, not good for weight loss, etc.

Revolution rolls. Oopsie buns. Cloud bread. Variations of this bread/bun/roll are all over the internet. Some have said that Dr. Atkins himself invented the original recipe, the revolution roll.
Below are links to the ingredients I use in the recipe above. I am an affiliate for Amazon.com. If you click on the links below I will earn a small commission. Thank you for your support of this blog!
I’m not sure where the recipes originated, but I do know that when I added a little bit of my Very Low Carb Flour Mix (or finely-ground almond flour, see note below), these “Not-So-Oopsie” Rolls had more structure, were less “wet” to hold as sandwiches, and tasted amazing!
