taking place and what a lot of people are not aware of because they are not meteorologists as we also had what we call a positive arctic oscillation, that tends to be a warm phase for us. now, it has changed extremely negative. so in my discussion with everybody today i am telling everybody, expect some really cold weather for the next few weeks. in fact, we might be seeing breezes all the way into central florida over the next to execute >> all my gosh -- my gosh. >> it's because the weather pattern has changed. let me show you what we saw. temperatures were held up, because of the cause. in fact, we only went out to 42 degrees last night once we got down to 42 we went study most of the night. 41 was below in sumter 42 orangeburg, but in the upstate, it did get a little cooler, in greenwood 34, the lower

bark the cheese flavor. you don't have to make them gluten-free you can use regular flowers, we as garbanzo bean flour, and we also -- >> i didn't know that existed until about five seconds ago. >> i didn't either. there's so many different weird little variances of flour. there's oak flour., it's pulverized oates the can by oatmeal and put it in this and it will turn into that which is how to pick >> and you can cook with it. >> absolutely. you can bake with it. there's a lot of nice alternatives now for people that could not have gluten. and it taste decent. >> so how do you make these? these, we can start with our dry ingredients. >> which are here, just going to eyeball that. i emailed the recipe so we will

about a third of a cup of your garbanzo flour. this is about two thirds of a cup under oat flour. you can use all-purpose. but, this one i think lends itself better. and then you have your flavor, which is garlic powder, onion powder and a little paprika. >> yelm -- sounds good. >> no food coloring. a little salt that gives it that final kick. and then, physically our dry ingredients are in i don't know if we want to turn on per se, because it is a little louder. the next thing that you do is coconut oil, you can use canola oil or anything else, but again we are staying with a healthy kick about two stable spoons gestures tablespoons -- 2 tablespoons.

>> put that in there until it large crumbs. >> then it makes the dell. >> and then, you just lay it out and cut it? >> this dell has rested overnight i would recommend that is like with any positive. by the way this also gets about 3 tablespoons of greek yogurt. that's what turns it into the ball. when it's in a ball, put in a rough overnight and then, roll this out between layers of parchment paper, and however you want to cut it. you can cut it small, i would want people to know that i cut you can cut into be like saltine size. you can do what you want. shaped cheez it. >> and then you bake that if you don't have a so pat definitely parchment paper.

i love this idea. a healthy snack you don't have

celery. i have a little butter and garlic. >> sounds delicious. >> you can do this in 10 minutes. and it is best served almost right away because there's pasta and so as the pasta six, it's going to keep soaking up. so if you would like we could get started. throw both of those in their this is basically one onion. >> i get to do this? >> shore. a couple of carrots. can make them big, or small. >> and fresh is better than prison. >> always. the do a couple of carrots, celery, and onion you want to stir that up and let that cut. once i coaxed down and brown's down we will add our wine, the chicken stock about a half -- half coupling. >> what kind of wine?

>> i would stay away from the wind on the shelf that they cooking wine because they aren't very good. i'm not a fan. >> i've always wondered that pic >> now chicken stock you can buy it we make our own, it's a really awesome trick that most restaurants don't tell you is when you peel your carrots and onion skins and celery save them in a zip bag and when you get a couple back pulls throw it in here with water and bring it up to a boil and you have stock. if you have chicken bones beef bones, or even just vegetables this is basically what you're making. so all your leftovers with their way, save them boil them off into water for a few hours and you have stock. >> for anyone who does not necessarily have time. >> we can buy it. >> we have no energy. we want to buy the chicken stock without salt

add stock -- salt. if you need salt you can always add salt. but if it's too salty then it's done. >> three bring this to a boil before we add anything? >> you bring this to a boil about 10 minutes then your meatballs, you'll make ahead of time. you can even buy some of these that are frozen. but ground chicken, turkey veal copy whatever you want to do. roll them up we sauti them. we finish them in the oven, these are done and cooked.>> you want me to dump the is and what >> let's start with pasta.>> this looks different than what i have purchased. >> you want to get something small because it will bulk up. if you get a big spiral noodle they will be huge. >> so you don't want a macaroni you what like half of one. >> exactly. if you look at the noodles in here, once they are cut. >> so that's the finished product. >> okay. this is how big the noodles get

>> they double. >> we will come back out on the shot, and they can get a closer look at what the noodles look like before. so you can see how small the noodles are. >> so they will soak up a lot of liquid. and again, that will cut down for a few minutes. and if you don't have time, again everything in and walk away. come back 20 minutes later and it's done. meatballs going, -- go in. what we did which i think will be a trend, a lot of nutritionists are saying, that seaweed is going to be the new kale. and you find it a lot in japanese and asian restaurants. so, italian wedding soup have kale or spinach, or something like that in it. we substituted a dried seaweed. >> why are we coming away from

why do we need something different? >> i like kale a lot. this has that ocean, really clean seaweed flavor. which isn't for everybody. so if it's not stick with kale. anything green is good for you. >> it definitely has an ocean cents. >> to me the last three steps really quick. put a little bit of added. >> just a little bit. >> it's dehydrated so it will grow. and you will see that. >> and we will plate it so we can see the finished product. >> and you have a spoon with my name on it. >> and you can garnish that with green onions or cheese or anything else. >> okay. there's the finished product and you promise it would give me lots of energy. >> is good hangover food too.>> you know i don't need that. three kids.
