I use this one but it's not low carb.

I think it is either the crisco recipe or just like it.

Knowing you like low carb may I suggest this?

Fill it will a sf pie filling or something like sf cheesecake.
I have a recipe for cherry pie filling with splenda I should be posting soon. I made it yesterday but have yet to put it in something.

I was watching foodnetwork and saw that Mr. Ramsey said that plastic wrap wont melt unless its 400 DEGREES or higher. Is this true? I was amazed. He said to wrap ribs in them with all the spices to keep the moisture and spices in. I have never heard of this before, for real? You can do that? This really changes things for me. Does it steam meats or what?

They're not really talking about the saran wrap you have in your cupboard. Commercial grade (restaurant grade) plastic wrap is a LOT thicker than the stuff you use to cover leftovers. It also needs to be wrapped in foil after the plastic wrap, not just tossed in the oven (temperature is one thing, sitting directly under the heating element is another). Since plastic wrap is not intended for use in the oven, it can leach BPA into your food, although not at levels to worry much about.

Basically, yes, it does steam the food. And it's amazing for keeping moisture in the food instead of losing it to the bottom of the pan.

1 cup cooked cubed beef or chicken = 150 grams. Please be advised this is only what we have mapped out in our system. You may want to submit a different weight.
Due to several complaints of the wrong weight/s, we are no longer adding in the weight for any fish, seafood or meat protein items (excluding cheese and eggs), the submitter will have to do so.
Any fish, seafood and meat protein items submitted to us in cups, tablespoons or single amounts (E.g. ..10 shrimp, 3 T-Bone steaks, 4 salmon fillets) will be declined/returned.
Thanks.
If you can eat, you can make it!

I am looking at Recipe #25303 for the Rice Shrimp and rice. I only have fresh shrimp and it calls for frozen. I don't want to ruin the shrimp because fresh shrimp may be too long for looking in the rice cooker. What do you recommend?
