If you miss popcorn, you will love our low carb version made with cheese. Extra sharp cheddar cheese is crumbled into a ")popcorn" like size onto a baking sheet. The cheese is then dried out for several days to eliminate any excess moisture. Once dried, the cheese is placed into an air fryer to puff up and crisp. You can use this popcorn as a base for a multitude of Keto-friendly seasonings like salt and pepper for a classic combo, cayenne for a spicy kick or even sweetener for a sweet/salty blend. Yes, using extra sharp cheddar cheese will ensure the lowest moisture content to start. If the cheese has too high a moisture content and is not dried for long enough, the cheese will simply melt versus puffing during the cooking process. Drying the cheese in the fridge will allow for most of the moisture to evaporate from the cheese so it will not go bad once you dry it outside of the fridge. The cheese is then removed from the fridge and placed on a counter at room temperature to finish releasing the rest of the moisture at a faster rate. If you live in a high humidity environment, be sure to give the cheese an extra day or so to dry out. If the cheese still looks pale on the first round of cooking, immediately repeat the process but set the timer for 1-2 minutes. Check the cheese periodically to make sure the cheese is golden and puffed. There should be bubbles on the cheese pieces when puffed. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and cool completely to crisp. To make the ultimate pairing, serve this with other Keto snack recipes like our Keto Oven-Fried Kale Chips: https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe-detail/ug:eb5508a2-1dcd-6829-8b66-9a33813bdbf1/keto-oven-fried-kale-chips
This aromatic and buttery roasted chicken is perfect for a Keto Christmas, especially for smaller gatherings. Basted in an orange and herb-infused butter, this recipe offers delicious flavor and significantly reduces cooking time compared to a whole turkey. The basting butter uses both orange juice and zest, and a quarter of orange is stuffed inside to keep the meat moist. While orange can be enjoyed in moderation on Keto, lemon can be substituted if preferred. Remember to adjust macros accordingly. Serve this festive centerpiece with your favorite low-carb sides, such as Keto Christmas Vegetarian Mushroom dressing or Keto Christmas Slaw. The pan juices can be used to drizzle over the carved chicken or as a base for a low-carb gravy.
You’d be surprised to learn that corned beef makes an excellent ingredient for meatballs and meatloaf. Corned beef also happens to be perfect for the Keto diet, due to its high fat content and low carbs for processed meat. The meat is blended to release the fat and make the perfect meatball texture. The meatballs are flavored with onion powder and your favorite brand of pork rinds. Cauliflower rice and mayonnaise act as binders for the meatballs. After you fry them up in some healthy avocado oil, you can dip your meatballs in the Carb Manager Easy White Gravy. This onion and garlic-flavored gravy is finger-licking-good! Enjoy this Keto meatballs and gravy recipe as part of your meal prep or a larger meal at the family dinner table. Corned beef is made from beef brisket. It comes out of a can so tender because it’s cured with large rock salt pieces. The salt is also referred to as ‘corns’ of salt, hence the name. When you’re cooking with corned beef, make sure to refrigerate the can before opening it. Otherwise, it becomes difficult to handle. When purchasing corned beef at your grocery store, don’t get this ingredient confused with canned corned beef hash. The hash includes bits of chopped potatoes and other ingredients that aren’t friendly to the Keto diet. How can you determine when to use frozen cauliflower rice or raw cauliflower? It mostly depends on what type of texture you want on your plate. For this recipe, you don’t want tough or crunchy pieces of cauliflower in the meatballs. This is why using thawed cauliflower rice from a frozen bag is better. The rice will already be tender and just needs to heat in the pan. Use raw cauliflower when your recipe calls for a long cooking time in the oven. Jessica L.
