Sweet Lemon Onion Relish Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
2 medium onions - cut in thin 1/4 strips
2 medium lemons
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup ; water
5 tbsp sugar
1 pinch salt
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
Recipe Preparation
Heat oil in a medium skillet and add onions; cook covered on very low
heat until onions are soft but not brown, stirring occasionally, for
about 15 minutes.
While onions are cooking, prepare the lemons: Squeeze juice from the
lemons and reserve. Cut the rinds into 1/4" strips. Put in a small
pan and cover with cold water; bring to a boil, then pour out the
water. Repeat, boiling up the rind for a total of 3 times.
When the onions are tender, add the drained lemon strips, lemon juice,
water, sugar, salt and thyme. Cook uncovered over low heat, stirring
occasionally, for about 20 minutes until most of the liquid is
reduced and onions and lemons are glazed.
Put up in glass jars. Store in refrigerator.
Yield: 1 3/4 cups.

and a special treat to replace or share the spotlight with cranberry
sauce for Thanksgiving turkey dinner."

Some low carbohydrate diet guidlines:

Many are only a little lower and in some cases still greater than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are just the same.
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for breaded foods. Although you may be able to buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may also make them by simply using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is quite hard and crispy, process it in your food mill. Store in an airtight container.
