St. Patrick’s Day Corned Beef Skewers

Dukan Diet Recipe St. Patrick's Day Corned Beef Skewers St. Patrick’s Day Corned Beef Skewers

I’m trying to segue this sight into both a guide for Dukan Diet (DD) recipes AND eating healthy past the diet.  I’ve always had a very healthy diet and cooked with high-fiber products.  I’m going to attempt to show you how to make recipes with complex carbs (and obviously you can leave them out) that are both low-fat AND delicious!  I served this recipe both on whole wheat bagels and skewers.  It worked for everyone and no one even knew it was a diet recipe!!  (Now, this isn’t the leanest or lowest sodium meat choice, so if you’re in the early stages of the Dukan Diet I would refrain from this cut of beef and just cook a nice lean roast-following the rest of the recipe.)  These wonderful skewers were a fantastic treat for my mom and dad out on the boat this weekend at our place in Palm Springs.  Mom enjoyedn hers with a freshly squeezed mimosa!  From my O’Bryan family to yours, I hope you all had a happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

ST. PATRICK’S DAY CORNED BEEF SKEWERS

1 4-5 lb corned beef brisket (flat cut is leaner) or top sirloin roast (DD), cooked and cut into 2-inch cubes

Follow the directions on the package of corned beef or roast your beef until desired-doneness (top sirloin roast should take about an hour at 350 in a bit of beef broth or other cooking liquid).  Cube meat and cut each cube in half, almost through.  Stuff a half a teaspoon of sauerkraut inbetween the halves and stick on a skewer.  Serve with sauce.

1 can sauerkraut, well-drained

Sauce ingredients:
1/2 cup fat free mayonnaise
1 T tomato paste (DD) or 2 T ketchup
1/4 cup cherry pepper relish or diced cherry peppers (I used one like the link below-just look for sugar or fat, they’re shouldn’t be anything but diced peppers in it)

Mix all sauce ingredients together in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
