These peppermint brownies are a mint-chocolate lover's dream! They're incredibly fudgy and deliver a satisfying peppermint kick. The key is to chill them completely in the fridge before cutting – patience is rewarded with perfect squares and intense flavor.
This full Keto meal is like a copycat version of a common family-style dish served in Chinese restaurants. Bite-sized pieces of chicken breast are pan-fried and tossed in a thickened sweet sauce of honey and garlic. The mild dish is served with sauteed broccoli and walnuts over a bed of super-lemony cauliflower rice. The strong lemon-butter flavor helps cover up the cauliflower taste and gives more of a rice texture in the final dish. You can serve the whole meal family-style at the dinner table or portion the recipe into meal prep containers. Keep the final dish stored together in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 5 days. Simply microwave your container to reheat the meal together. Nuts are a sneaky, low-carb way to add more fats and protein to your meal. This can be especially useful to anyone who is also vegetarian on the Keto diet. In just 1 ounce, walnuts contain only 4 grams of carbs but 18 grams of fat. Pecans also contain 4 grams of carbs and 20 grams of fat in 1 ounce. Cashews contain a few more grams of carbs in an ounce, but they have 5 grams of protein and 12 grams of fat. Throw some nuts in your next Keto stir-fry! There are many vegetables commonly used in stir-fries that are also Keto-friendly. If you want to stick to greens, aside from broccoli, you can use bok choy, spinach, cabbage, green bell peppers, zucchini, green beans, snap peas or asparagus in your Keto stir-fry. Choose whichever Keto vegetables are in season. Other vegetables that are good for stir-fries are red bell peppers, chopped mushrooms, bean sprouts. For some more substance, tofu also makes a good Keto add-in. Jessica L.
This low carb spinach and feta pie makes for an easy Christmas Keto recipe to enjoy over the holidays. Our crustless Keto Christmas pie is packed with flavor from tender spinach, tangy feta cheese, aromatic herbs and spices, sweet dried cranberries, crunchy walnuts and grated Parmesan. The pie filling is bound with a seasoned mixture of beaten egg before being baked until golden. This makes a great low carb brunch or lunch option to enjoy over the festive season. Our Christmas Keto recipe uses grated Parmesan cheese to flavor the beaten egg mixture. To make this recipe vegetarian, you may swap the Parmesan for any hard Italian style cheese that is free from animal rennet. Swap directly for the same quantity as the Parmesan, adding to the beaten egg. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe. We have used frozen chopped spinach for our savory Keto Christmas pie. The key is to completely thaw the frozen spinach first. Once the spinach has thawed, you will need to squeeze out any excess liquid and drain off before combining with the other filling ingredients.

Inspired by the flavors of Keto nachos, this casserole features ground cumin, dark chili powder, and zesty lime notes. Perfect for make-ahead meals, simply layer the ingredients and refrigerate until ready to bake.

Wondering what a chaffle is? Chaffles are the combination of two things: cheese and waffles! Even better is that chaffles are also only made with two ingredients: cheese and eggs. Chaffles are the perfect food to make on a Keto egg fast diet. This take on chaffles takes you to the sweeter side of breakfast. Just a couple of fasting-friendly ingredients are added to the batter to make vanilla and cream cheese-flavored chaffles. Melted over each one is a tablespoon of whipped butter sweetened with a Keto-friendly brown sugar substitute. Make a large batch to meal prep for the week or serve them hot and fresh every morning of your Keto egg fast. This recipe utilizes a standard cast-iron pan for cooking chaffles. If you like the appearance of waffles, you can use your waffle maker at home. Since this batter is a little thinner than a typical waffle batter, you ll need to reduce the heat setting on your waffle maker, if possible. Make sure to spray your waffle maker thoroughly with pan spray as well. A cast-iron skillet is best for cooking egg fast Keto recipes because they cook the most evenly and will always release your cooked food if taken care of properly. Since a recipe such as this one is a heavily modified version of a common breakfast food, your ingredients will be a little delicate at times. A good-quality non-stick skillet can also be used, but make sure you don over-heat your batter while it 's cooking. Jessica L.
These richly flavored meatballs combine ground turkey with smokey Spanish chorizo, oozy mozzarella cheese, tangy parmesan, and aromatic fresh basil.

This low-sodium Keto salmon recipe is perfect for family meals or weekly meal prep. The flavorful dish doesn't rely on salt, using dijon mustard in the marinade to provide a delicious taste. It's an all-in-one skillet meal featuring fresh salmon fillets with a buttery dijon marinade, mushrooms, asparagus, and a seasoned cream sauce. Enjoy it as a lunch or a beautiful family-style dinner centerpiece. The dijon mustard in the marinade adds a small amount of sodium, making additional seasoning unnecessary. For a dairy-free option, substitute extra virgin olive oil for butter in the marinade and when cooking the vegetables. Replace heavy cream with almond milk, thickened with low-carb tapioca flour if desired. When meal prepping, portion one salmon filet per container and adjust the amount of creamy mushrooms and asparagus accordingly.
This Keto recipe makes one large flatbread, perfect for slicing into thin bread strips, ideal for dipping. Our low carb focaccia style bread is packed with aromatic seasonings and oven-baked until deliciously golden. Perfect for snacking and sharing as part of a Keto lunch or dinner. Or alternatively enjoyed as a low carb side for dipping in hot soups or Keto dips. Traditionally flatbreads are made with carb-heavy flours and are not compliant with a Ketogenic diet. However, it s super simple to make quick and easy Keto thin breads using low carb flour alternatives. We have prepared our focaccia style thin bread from a base of ground almonds, coconut flour, tangy parmesan cheese, butter, baking soda, a little apple cider vinegar and eggs. We have made our flatbreads extra delicious by packing them with aromatic rosemary, juicy black olives and a touch of garlic powder. Keto flatbread is a great way to get your bread fix entirely guilt-free. Once baked, the flatbread is sliced into thin bread strips, perfect as a side or for dipping. We love to serve our breads as a starter or side, with a bowl of extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping. Alternatively, the bread strips are delicious served slightly warm, slathered in butter.
This refreshing keto salad is packed with crisp low carb veggies and seasoned with an aromatic sesame and ginger dressing. This is a great light lunch salad option. The keto sesame ginger dressing can be found under our sides section.
This easy Keto snack recipe is rich in fats and flavor. Our spicy low carb dip is prepared with smooth peanut butter, low carb maple-flavored syrup, tamari sauce, lime juice, garlic, and spicy dried chili flakes. Once prepared, the thick and creamy peanut sauce is served with crisp celery sticks for dipping. Perfect for low carb snacking and sharing. We have used a smooth and creamy nut butter to make our low carb dipping sauce. Although peanut butter can be enjoyed in moderation on a Keto diet, it is at the higher end of the carb scale than other nut butters. If you would like an alternative, smooth almond butter would be a great choice. If you opt for peanut butter, look for natural options that are free from added sugars. We have used a low carb maple flavored syrup to add sweetness to our peanut butter dip. If preferred, you can omit sweetener entirely or add your favorite low carb alternative. A powdered sweetener or liquid option would make the best substitutes, adjusting quantities to taste. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.
