Recipes from an Alabama Millennial

Millennial

This is my recipe blog. These recipes are single serving, healthy, and under 600 calories. All of them can be done with a portable induction burner, hand mixer, 8-inch stainless steel skillet, 14-inch cast iron skillet, silicone loaf pan, air fryer, small blender(I use a Nutribullet), mini pressure cooker, and a kettle without using an oven, pots, or a microwave. As a self-imposed limitiation, I do every recipe with one burner and one pan, even when it requires some creativity. I used a stovetop early on, but I've switched over to a portable induction burner.

All recipes are diabetic-friendly, since I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes. Small amounts of lower glycemic index sugars like blackstrap molasses, agave syrup, and coconut sugar may occasionally used in recipes. For desserts I use allulose, a natural zero-calorie sweetener. For the most part I use organic ingredients to cook everything, but they aren't required for these recipes.

Most recipes are gluten-free. Some recipes use einkorn flour. The gluten in einkorn flour is different from modern gluten, so some people with gluten intolerance can handle einkorn flour. However, if you're at all sensitive to gluten, do your research before consuming einkorn flour. None of these recipes use wheat flour.
