Honey Baklava

I am a Christ loving Grandma who has been following a low carb lifestyle for many years. I am a type II diabetic and a major foodie, which sometimes can be polar opposites! I collect many recipes that are not low carb, so that I can take a stab at recreating the recipe suitable for my dietary needs. I also make sweets for alot of my family members & friends. So I have lots of recipes from all kinds of different dietary profiles in order to influence and supplement my "foodie" tendencies.
