Savory Mushroom & Gruyère Puff Pastry Braid

Ingredients:

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small yellow onion, finely diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

10 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese

1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions:

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and set it aside while you prepare the filling.

In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter with the olive oil, then add the yellow onion and cook until soft and lightly golden.

Stir in the garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant, then add the cremini mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

Sprinkle in the fresh thyme and season the mixture with salt and pepper, letting everything cook together until the flavors blend.

Remove the pan from the heat and fold in the Gruyère cheese so it melts slightly into the warm mushroom mixture.

Place the puff pastry onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, then spoon the mushroom filling down the center.

Cut diagonal strips along both long sides of the pastry and fold them over the filling in a braided pattern, alternating sides as you go.

Brush the entire braid with the beaten egg to help it bake to a glossy, golden finish.

Bake in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven until the pastry is puffed, crisp, and richly browned.

1–2 teaspoons sesame oil

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon monkfruit sweetener (or no sweetener)

¼ cup water or chicken broth

½ teaspoon garlic powder or 1 garlic clove

½ teaspoon ginger powder or fresh ginger

Instructions

1. Cook the noodles

Boil the noodles until just tender.

Drain and rinse.

Toss with a little oil so they don’t stick.

2. Cook the chicken

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan or wok.

Add the sliced chicken.

Stir-fry until fully cooked.

Remove and set aside.

3. Cook the vegetables

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan.

Add the onion, cabbage, carrots, and any other vegetables.

Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until slightly soft but still crisp.

4. Put everything together

Add the chicken back into the pan.

Add the noodles.

Pour the sauce over everything.

Toss and stir on high heat for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the noodles.

Tips for Diabetics

Use whole-wheat noodles or low-carb noodles.

Add extra vegetables to lower the carb load.

Keep the sauce light—many sauces have hidden sugars.

Watch your portion size since noodles are high in carbs.~~
