Get ready to beat the summer heat with this refreshing Keto raspberry, orange, and coconut smoothie. This recipe starts with a base of coconut milk beverage- one of the best plant-based milk options for a Keto diet. Heavy cream is the primary fat source in this recipe which provides richness. The tropical flavor is enhanced with frozen raspberries and some orange zest, giving you a layered fresh taste. This Keto coconut milk recipe is sweetened with liquid stevia, but any other liquid sweetener should work. Steer away from granulated sweeteners as they might not dissolve well in this drink. To achieve the best cooling effect, use frozen raspberries instead of fresh ones, and place the Keto plant-based milk and heavy cream in the freezer for 30 minutes before preparation. That ensures that the final product is cooling and hydrating. This coconut milk smoothie recipe is the perfect breakfast option for warm days to keep you hydrated. It is also a great pre/post-workout meal, providing you with sustainable energy and electrolytes. You can also add some protein powder to this low carb drink to assist in muscle recovery. Definitely! You can switch the heavy cream to canned coconut milk. But since the coconut flavor might overpower the other ingredients, we suggest switching half the coconut milk beverage for another Keto plant-based milk, such as almond milk. But feel free to experiment. Absolutely! It’s always fun to try new variations of recipes. Strawberries are a good substitute in this recipe because they go well with the orange flavor. However, if you were to use blueberries, we suggest using lemon zest instead of orange zest.

This Keto creamed spinach recipe delivers a delightful and healthy side dish that pairs perfectly with chicken, pork, or fish. The key to achieving the best texture and flavor is blanching the spinach beforehand. This process helps remove excess liquid, preventing a watery sauce and ensuring a creamy consistency. Blanching involves briefly immersing the spinach in boiling water, followed by an immediate plunge into ice-cold water. This halts the cooking process while preserving the spinach's vibrant color, nutrients, and allowing for easy removal of excess liquid. A touch of xanthan gum is added to enhance the sauce's thickness, but it can be omitted for a slightly less thick consistency without compromising taste. Be sure to adjust your macros accordingly if you make any alterations to the recipe.
