High Protein/Lo Carbers...Recipes and info

I am not a big fan of pumpkin, preferring sweet potato in its stead, but I saw this recipe and thought it would be a good fit here on the Lo Carb thread.

I may try this recipe substituting sweet potato for the pumpkin. If anyone makes this please let me know how it turned out.

Thanks for the fix Orema.

Looks like I have one too many "http's" in there. Most likely because I was drooling over that pumpkin bar. lol

Love tabbouleh, but don't want the grains? Try this recipe I got from one of my favorite Greek Recipe sites, http://souvlakiforthesoul.com/

"GRAIN FREE" TABOULI RECIPE
Ingredients:
4 cups freshly chopped parsley leaves
1/2 cup freshly chopped mint leaves
1/4 of cauliflower, grated
1 large spring onion, thinly sliced
a handful of cherry tomatoes, chopped in half
1 Lebanese cucumber, seeds removed and thinly sliced ( I'm thinking any type of cuke will do)
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
Combine the parsley, mint, grated cauliflower, spring onion, tomatoes and cucumber in a large bowl. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and season to taste.

For those who still eat dairy/nuts on occasion, these are really good.

Peanut Butter Cheesecake Balls

Ingredients:
2-8 ounce chilled Cream Cheese
1 cup creamy Peanut Butter
1 package of Almond Bark (or whatever chocolate you desire)
Crushed Roasted Peanuts (optional)

Mix the peanut butter and cream cheese together thoroughly.
Roll into medium sized balls and place onto something with a flat surface, (plate, cookie sheet etc.) lined with parchment paper that will fit into your freezer space. Freeze for 1-2 hours until solid.
Place the chocolate or bark in a bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir and heat an additional 15 seconds, and stir again until it’s smooth and creamy. Stirring is extremely important in this case to avoid overheating the chocolate/bark, so be sure and stir it really well in between heating. Do not over heat.
Us a fork to dip the cheesecake balls into the bowl of chocolate/bark. Sit it back on the parchment lined sheet and quickly sprinkle with the crushed peanuts if desired, before they harden. If using bark, they will harden quickly. If using melted chocolate, you may need to place back in the freezer until the chocolate hardens. Refrigerate until ready to devour!

Could someone tell me the difference between Mediterranean Diet vs Paleo Diet? And could you include some reference links. Please and thank you.
