Tossed some chicken drumettes with coconut flour, garlic and onion powder; then, fried them with reckless abandon in coconut oil.
Tell me - what looks yummier than chicken frying in hot oil? NOTHING, my friends. Once these were crispy they were whisked off for pampering with paper towels, then a zipper bag to be lovingly coated with Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing sauce, the king of all sauces. I adore all of Frank's stupendous sauces. If I am ever so lucky to meet Frank, I will immediately have sex with him out of sheer gustatory gratitude. I am a shameless 'ho when it comes to good sauce.
Next...chopped organic bacon and leeks were gently crisped in a pan. Then, after the addition of a couple spoons of bacon grease (you don't save your bacon grease? Shame on you!) about 2 cups of beet greens and a handful or so of mixed herbs and baby lettuces were delicately tossed in. You cannot roughhouse with baby lettuces. Toss (gently) to acquire a healthy sheen of bacon grease, wilt, add a bit of herb dressing, toss (gently, dammit!), plate. Even picky greens-haters will eat leaves coated with bacon fat. And if they don't? Screw them. More for you.
Voila! A nummy (although dimly lit) dinner that is low-carb, full of good fats, and allergen-free. At least for me. Oh, there's probably a bunch of vitamins in there too...and due to the yummy fat, you'll actually absorb them! A novel concept totally lost on the likes of Dean Ornish (or as I call him, Count Meathater Von BaggyEyes) but we're so much smarter than the average doctor, no?

I'm all over the chicken; not so sure about the bacon/leeks combo just yet so I'll get back to you on that one. Question is where can I find coconut flour and coconut oil?

Hmm...here, I get coconut oil at any health food store. The coconut flour is Aloha Nu, a good brand, and I got it through the Low Carb Grocery here in TO - you can order online as well, but there's bound to be a place in NY too. It's great stuff.
The food sounds yummy. And if I were gay, I'd have sex with Frank too. We could take turns! I've been in love with Frank's Red Hot Ceyenne Pepper Sauce, Adds Tang And Flavor Not Just Heat for ever it seems. No body understands me, but I think you might. We are bother and sister in (Frank's) arms!
