Recipes, recipes!

Thought I would post a bunch today since I have been slacking.  I'm still getting used to eating the six small meals a day, due to my gastroparesis diagnosis.  It's very difficult, especially since my job has me on the road a lot.   I didn't do a very good job this week of watching my carbs, so this week I need to be more vigilant LOL!
Here's a great recipe that I am sharing from Low Carbing Among Friends.
They have some excellent cookbooks.  Everything in the book is low carb and gluten-free.
This one uses celery root. Although I'm not a big celery fan, I'm wondering how the root would taste done like this.  Need to try it out!

Ingredients
3 cups shredded celery root
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Using a julienne peeler, spiral slicer or box grater , grate "noodles" out of the celery root.
In medium bowl, mix eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and black pepper, then add the celery root and stir to continue.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, heat the butter.  Scoop celery root mixture into 8 hashbrown patties and place in pan.  Cook 3 minutes or until brown.  Flip and cook another 2-3 minutes.
