Help me find a recipe I can use with these ingredients for Thanksgiving, please. TY!
 
Hello everyone! Hope you guys are ready for Thanksgiving. I am not quite there. I'm staying at my mom's for a few days, and we went shopping today for groceries. I had a lot of low carb items on my list. but there were a few items I couldn't get today. (I have these items at MY house, but won't be going home until the weekend.)

I'd like to make something----anything!---I can eat for dessert on this LC/HF woe for Thanksgiving. Can you guys help me find a recipe?

A lot of dessert recipes call for coconut flour, and I don't have any here. I also don't have vanilla extract. (Not too big of a deal). I don't have a container of granulated sugar free sweetener, nor a big bottle of a liquid sf sweetener. (I have the tiny little bottle).

But what I DO have are the following:

Flax meal
Almond meal
A TON of eggs
Unsweetened cocoa powder
About 20 packets of Splenda and one little bottle of liquid stevia
A ton of pecans and walnuts and pistachios
A brand new bottle of SF Strawberry syrup by Torani
A huge container of Ricotta
3 huge containers of plain Greek yogurt
About 2 lbs of butter
A pound of psyllium husks (like that Metamucil stuff, minus all of the extra ingredients).
An unopened jar of MTC Oil
Some Smucker's Natural PB
3 blocks of plain cream cheese
A box of Knox unflavored gelatin
Cocoa Butter (Fat bombs, anyone?)
Almond milk (unsweetened)
Milk - full fat (YUM)
2 pints of heavy whipping cream

Any ideas?

Only thing I can think of is a cheesecake with an almond meal crust. I just don't have any vanilla. Would the strawberry syrup work?

I like cheesecake, but was hoping for something else. Anything, really. Cookies. A pie. Milkshake/ice cream?
If anyone has any ideas or links to a recipe or two, I'm grateful!

Thank you so much. And everyone have a wonderful, safe, warm, and tummy satisfying holiday!

do u have canned pumpkin??

If so, a pumpkin cheese cake. Make in a mug. Or a chocolate cheesecake. I put nuts in the bottom for a bit of crunch, like a mock crust

Or flavor ricotta with SF strawberry and sprinkle on nuts.

You can top cheese cake or ricotta with whipped cream. we often dont add vanilla, and sometimes no sweetener either. It has a slight sweetness just by itself.

Thanks, Ms Arielle. I do have canned pumpkin, but I don't want to use that, because I'd only need a couple of tbsp, and we have no use for the rest of the can. It would be a waste....

Thanks for the ideas-- I found a recipe to make salted caramel pork rinds that was amazing! It reminded me of the chocolate 'puppy chow' I used to make before when I did keto the first time, years ago. Man, that puppy chow saved me! And it was so darn delicious! Who knew pork rinds could be so amazing?!!

I've been making a lot of flax muffins in a mug. I have almond meal and some other things now, including some butter extract flavoring. I can't wait to try that out!

Have a wonderful holiday--a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
