Low Carb British Lancashire Hotpot (Lamb and Mushroom Stew)

⭐ 4.4/5 (1571) 🔥 400 cal

The Lancashire hotpot is a famous lamb stew originating from Lancashire in the North West of England. It\'s a very easy but delicious dish, traditionally made of lamb or mutton with onions, topped with sliced potatoes and baked in a heavy pot on low heat. To make this a British Keto recipe, mushrooms are added along with the cook\u2019s choice of herbs, and the potatoes are swapped out for zucchini disks which are dusted with almond flour and grated parmesan coating. They are then lightly fried to give it texture and flavor before topping the stew and being baked in the oven. Keto British food is the perfect comfort food for the whole family all year round. Lamb stewing meat is a generic term for various cuts of lamb that are suitable for pressure cooking or slow cooking. Stewing meat is typically diced shoulder, leg, neck fillet, shank or breast. Make sure to trim off any excess fat first. This recipe calls for the lamb to be pressure cooked in an Instant Pot as this guarantees melt in the mouth tender pieces of meat. If you don\u2019t have an Instant Pot, you can still make this recipe in a crockpot, slow cooker or in a cast-iron casserole dish and just cook for longer over low heat until the lamb pieces are tender. You can try making this recipe with any low carb vegetable such as leek, broccoli, cauliflower, rutabaga or kohlrabi. Add as many or as little as you like for a hearty stew. You can also flavor the recipe with a mixture of fresh or dried herbs and spices adjusted to your liking. Thyme and rosemary are classics and feel free to add a hint of chilli flakes if you like a bit of spice. If you\u2019re unsure about the spice you can always add it to your bowl after serving to try. Arrowroot is essential for thickening the stew. If you don\u2019t have arrowroot powder, you can add \u2153 cup heavy cream or \u00bd tsp guar gum or xanthan gum first dissolved in 2 tablespoons cold water before adding to the stew. Keep stirring until it thickens.

Low Carb Beef Casserole

⭐ 4.4/5 (1668) 🔥 500 cal

This warming and hearty low carb casserole makes a great Keto winter lunch or dinner. Our rich beef stew is prepared with sweet butternut squash, celery, onion, aromatic fresh herbs, a hint of tomato, and balsamic vinegar. Once prepared, the stew is slow-cooked on the stove until the beef is tender and then finished with a touch of xanthan gum to thicken. Perfect for cold winter days served with buttered low carb bread for dipping. Butternut squash is at the higher end of the low carb vegetable scale, but it can still be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced low carb diet. It is also a great, nutrient-dense choice for those with a higher carb allowance. If you would like to make the casserole with lower-carb vegetables, you could use some diced radishes and cauliflower instead. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe. We have added xanthan gum to our beef casserole towards the end of the cooking time. Xanthan gum is a great Keto-friendly and gluten-free thickener that works well in place of carb-heavy flour. If you would rather not use the gum, then you may omit this. The stew will not be as rich and thick but will still be delicious!

Keto Vegan Coconut Cold Brewed Coffee

⭐ 4.4/5 (1006) 🔥 280 cal

If you are a coffee fan and like coconut-flavored beverages, then you will love this Keto coffee recipe. It is prepared by cold brewing a mixture of coffee and toasted desiccated coconut. If you like your coffee black, this Keto coffee is an excellent option for coconut-flavored coffee without using coconut milk or cream. Cold-brew is prepared by steeping coarse ground coffee with room temperature water in the fridge for 6 to 12 hours. The product is smoother, less bitter, and less acidic than coffee prepared with hot water. It is basically the coffee version of a slow-cooked meal; the flavors are more potent, and the drink s quality is better. Iced coffee is created by brewing hot coffee, then cooling it down and pouring it over ice. Cooling hot coffee causes it to oxidize; thus, its flavor flattens and becomes more acidic. Cold-brew is a better option for cold coffee drinks since it brews at a cold temperature, making it retain its flavors. You can use either unsweetened desiccated coconut or coconut chips. But to elevate the flavor, we recommend toasting it in a pan before adding it to the mixture. If you want a more subtle coconut flavor, then use untoasted coconut. Not only is this recipe vegan, but it is also gluten-free, sugar-free, and low-calorie. This allows you to add creamers and toppings without going overboard with calories in your morning coffee. While cold brew coffee is usually served as iced coffee, you can heat it if that s what you prefer. Heating it won t ruin its smooth and subtle flavor.

Easy Keto Orange Cream Soda

⭐ 4.4/5 (1480) 🔥 25 cal

Feel like a kid again when you drink this Keto non alcoholic drink! It45s fizzy, frothy, and full of orange flavor. The recipe is also customizable, so you can adjust how sweet or tart your soda is. Don45t worry, there45s no real soda used in this recipe. The drink gets its fizziness from sparkling water. The 4cream5 in the soda is real cream that you45ll whip up in advance! Pour the sparkling water over your cream in your glass, and watch the bubbles build up. This is a high-fat Keto recipe, so keep that in mind if you45re sharing your soda with any kids. Make sure to drink your soda while it45s cold and frothy. Not only will it be most enjoyable this way, but you45re up against science. If the cream in the soda sits for several minutes with the citrus orange juice, it may begin to curdle. The acid in citrus fruits can cook and break down protein. Your cream hasn45t spoiled, but it may taste sour! The amount of heavy cream used in this drink is no mistake. Keto non alcoholic drinks are truly Keto if they have fat content. Similar to trendy butter coffee, this orange cream soda is a fun drink with low carbs that45s rich in fat. When your body is in ketosis, you need high-fat recipes to fuel your body. If you want a light orange flavor (and don45t want your drink to be too tart), choose plain sparkling water to fill your glass. For a stronger orange flavor, choose orange-flavored sparkling water! You could also choose a lemon or lime-flavored sparkling water for a multi-citrus twist.
