This couldn’t get easier! As with the Low-Carb Orange Teriyaki Chicken Recipe, I would now use allulose instead of Splenda, adding an extra tablespoon. Oh, and I now buy jarred grated ginger root at the local Asian market.

Do you ever get bored of steak? I don’t, either, but that doesn’t mean a little enhancement now and then will be amiss. If you want to use blended steak seasoning, try Montreal seasoning. It’s a favorite at my house.

Eat It Again! How Repetition Rewires Your Taste – CarbSmart Podcast Episode 27

Dana Carpender — Wed, 05 Mar 2025 16:25:18 +0000
