Ingredients
ight="8">

·
     
½ pound asparagus

 

·
     
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

 

·
     
¼ teaspoon wasabi powder

 

·
     
¼ teaspoon soy sauce or coconut aminos

 

·
     
1 pinch Splenda

 
Instructions
 

1.
    
Snap the ends off your asparagus where it wants to break naturally.

 

2.
    
Put in a microwave steamer or lay it in a microwaveable casserole or pie plate.

 

3.
    
Add a tablespoon or so of water, cover (use plastic wrap if you don’t have a lid), and microwave on high for 3 to 4 minutes.

 

4.
    
Stir everything else together in a small dish.

 

5.
    
When the microwave beeps, uncover your asparagus immediately, to avoid overcooking.

 

6.
    
Now you have a choice: You can eat your asparagus immediately, dipping it in the mayo, or you can chill it and eat it later. Good either way.

Notes
 
Coconut Aminos are very similar to soy sauce, and a great alternative for those who are avoiding all soy. Get them at your local health food store, or online.
 
Asparagus with Chipotle Mayonnaise
 

 

This makes four servings for the simple reason that it’s rough to subdivide the pepper and run so little mayo through the food processor. But feel free to make the mayo first, keep it in the fridge, and nuke the asparagus as needed.

 
Ingredients
 

·
     
2 pounds asparagus

 

·
     
½ cup mayonnaise

 

·
     
1 chipotle chili, canned in adobo

 
Instructions
 

1.
    
Snap the ends off the asparagus where they want to break naturally. Put in a microwaveable casserole or Pyrex baking pan, add a couple of tablespoons of water, cover with plastic wrap, and nuke on high for 6 minutes.

 

2.
    
In the meanwhile, put the mayonnaise and the chipotle in your food processor, with the
S
-blade in place. Add a teaspoon of the adobo sauce from the can. Now, run the food processor until it’s smooth. That’s it.

Fat Fast Mac-and-Cheese
 

The crowning glory of this book. You’ll make this over and over, whether you’re Fat Fasting or not. A little high in calories, but worth giving up another feeding for!

 
Ingredients
 

·
     
1 packet tofu shirataki (I like the macaroni-style best for this.)

 

·
     
2 tablespoons heavy cream

 

·
     
1 tablespoon whipped cream cheese

 

·
     
1 ¼ ounces Cheddar cheese, shredded

 

·
     
½ tablespoon coconut oil

 
Instructions
 

1.
    
Drain and rinse 1 packet of tofu shirataki—I like the fettuccine width or the hard-to-find macaroni shape for this.

 

2.
    
Put ‘em in a bowl, and nuke them on high for 90 seconds or so.

 

3.
    
Drain them again. Nuke them again. Drain them again. This should get the excess water out.

 

4.
    
Add everyt
hing else to the bowl, and stir till the cheese melts and you have a smooth sauce. That’s all!

Lemony Cream Cheese
 

Rebecca says:
Dr. Atkins recommended plain cream cheese when doing a fat fast, and when I first tried it years ago, I realized how yummy it was. I tried different things to make it even yummier and came up with this version, which is my favorite.
