Keto Filipino Shrimp with Achiote Oil

⭐ 4.7/5 (2374) 🔥 680 cal

This Keto Filipino Shrimp with Achiote Oil is another Keto Pinoy recipe you know and love made into a low carb version. Sweet, succulent shrimp are sauteed with butter and minced garlic and then simmered in a soy and lime juice sauce. The final dish is drizzled with achiote oil made from simmering annatto seeds in oil. The bright red color is stunning and so flavorful! The final dish is topped with sliced scallions! A quick, easy weeknight meal that is sure to please. Achiote oil is made by heating oil in a pan and adding annatto seeds to it. Once the seeds are added, you will see the bright red color immediately in the oil. The whole process is quick - it takes about 30 seconds in total. Then the oil mixture is strained to remove the annatto seeds and set aside to await the drizzle over the final dish. In traditional Pinoy recipes, calamansi juice is used instead of lime juice. However, lime juice is a close substitute for calamansi and is more common to find in supermarkets. If you can find calamansi juice at your local Asian market, substitute the lime juice 1:1 with calamansi juice. If you are using fresh shrimp, you will most likely need to skip this step. However, frozen shrimp tends to release a lot of water. So once the shrimp are cooked, they should be removed to a bowl, and the residual liquid left behind (with the soy, lime, and garlic) should be reduced down by half and then poured over the cooked shrimp. This will help minimize any flavor loss and add a nice glaze to the final dish. You can serve Keto Filipino Shrimp with Achiote Oil with other Keto Pinoy recipes like Keto Filipino Style Spaghetti https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-filipino-style-spaghetti.

Keto Strawberry and Cream Shortbread Sandwiches

⭐ 4.7/5 (1246) 🔥 420 cal

This Keto shortbread biscuit recipe is a delightful blend of rich fats and flavors, requiring only five simple ingredients. Our low-carb biscuits are crafted with unsalted butter, ground almonds, and erythritol. The dough is chilled, cut into discs, and baked to a golden perfection. These biscuits are then paired with fresh strawberries and whipped heavy cream, creating a perfect afternoon treat or low-carb dessert. Ground almonds replace flour, adding sweetness and the perfect texture while reducing carbs. Erythritol provides the necessary sweetness and a delightful crunch, contributing to the biscuit's texture. For an alternative, consider xylitol. Ground almonds offer a slightly thicker crumb and more fiber compared to almond flour. However, almond flour can be substituted with a slight adjustment to the final texture. Be sure to adjust your macros accordingly.

Keto Egg Fast Banana Pancakes w Cream Cheese Icing

⭐ 4.7/5 (1076) 🔥 380 cal

You may not be able to eat a whole banana on the Keto diet, but you can get the next best thing. These fluffy Keto egg fast pancakes are flavored with banana and vanilla extracts with Keto-friendly sweeteners for any kid-at-heart to enjoy. Cooking the pancakes in coconut oil provides you with healthy fats, but it also adds extra flavor to the meal. On top of each pancake served is a mound of creamy and spreadable cream cheese icing. At your discretion, you can flavor the cream cheese icing with your favorite baking spices for an even better breakfast. It ’s best to make multiple pancakes during the recipe, so this is also a great way to meal prep for the week. Store cooled pancakes and cream cheese icing separately from each other in air-tight containers in your refrigerator. You can heat your pancake in a microwave, mix together the cream cheese icing, and spread it while it melts on the warm pancake. All common flavoring extracts used in baking contain small amounts of alcohol. However, you would have to consume a lot of raw extract to have any significant amount in your body. Plus, the alcohol evaporates when it’s cooked. Flavoring extracts are safe to use on the Keto diet, especially since very little is typically used in a serving. Egg fast diets are intended to be short-term and help you go into ketosis or break through a weight-loss plateau. The meals are going to be smaller than what you would normally eat on a Keto diet, and your ingredients choices are more limited. At your discretion, you may add a spread of extra butter to your pancake or a smear of mascarpone cheese. This will help you increase your fat and calories in the meal. Jessica L.

Keto Cheese and Rice Burrito

⭐ 4.7/5 (2032) 🔥 600 cal

This cheesy and delicious vegetarian burrito features a unique twist: a cheese tortilla wrap! You can purchase pre-made Keto cheese wraps or create your own. The filling consists of seasoned cauliflower rice, shredded lettuce, and a spicy sauce. Feel free to customize with other Keto-friendly ingredients like avocado, sour cream, or salsa. Be mindful not to overstuff the burrito to prevent tearing. For a less spicy sauce, reduce the amount of Tabasco or substitute with your preferred hot sauce. Adjust the cumin and paprika levels to suit your spice preference. If making your own cheese wrap, preheat the oven to 375F (190C) and bake a thin circle of shredded cheddar cheese on parchment paper for 8-10 minutes, until melted and bubbly but not hardened. Let it cool completely before using.
