This flavorsome Keto OMAD recipe is inspired by classic burrito fillings of chicken, rice, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese. Our chicken burrito bowl is loaded with low carb veggies and Keto compliant fats, designed to keep you satiated throughout the day. This easy Keto OMAD meal requires a little prep but minimal cooking. It 's also a great way to use up any leftover chicken you may have. The OMAD way of eating is adopted by many who wish to achieve further weight loss and other health goals. The diet mixes Keto with intermittent fasting, meaning you eat just one large meal a day within a one hour window. You then fast for the next 23 hours. Some dieters choose to alternate this between one and two meals a day, depending on their individual health requirements. Keto OMAD meals provide a hearty helping of fats, proteins, calories, and a small portion of low carb vegetables. The idea is that these meals contain all of your needed macronutrients to sustain you throughout the day. If OMAD eating is new to you, we recommend working with a health practitioner who can ensure you are meeting your individual dietary needs. We have used cold leg meat from a cooked rotisserie chicken. We have chosen thigh meat with skin on, as it is a fattier and more flavorsome cut. This is a great way to use up leftover meat from a whole cooked chicken, or for ease, you may use store-bought ready-cooked chicken. Please be sure to adjust your macros if you make any changes to the original recipe.
This no-churn chocolate Keto ice cream recipe offers a subtly sweet, silky smooth experience. Blending avocado and whipping cream beforehand creates a light, satisfying frozen stracciatella mousse. It's gluten-free and boasts only 4g carbs per scoop (75g/2.6oz serving), making it a guilt-free indulgence. Adjust sweetness with extra sweetener or stevia-sweetened dark chocolate. For a vegan version, substitute coconut cream for dairy whipping cream. Experiment with nut butter or unsweetened desiccated coconut for variations. For even chocolate flecks, ensure the cream is at room temperature before whipping. If frozen overnight, allow it to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
Prepare your tuna an hour in advance to allow it to absorb the salty soy sauce, tangy lime juice, and aromatic garlic and sesame seeds. This marinated tuna becomes the centerpiece of your sushi roll, perfectly complemented by creamy avocado. Instead of traditional white rice, crisp and cool cucumber slices form the roll, providing a refreshing crunch. This recipe, courtesy of Jessica L., offers a delightful twist on classic sushi.
Keto Baja Spicy Coleslaw is a flavorful side dish that pairs perfectly with roasted pork shoulder or tops low-carb tacos. This coleslaw combines thinly shredded cabbage, creamy mayo, zesty lime juice, diced jalapeño, and a touch of sea salt for a delightful kick. It's quick and easy to make, offering a simple yet impactful flavor profile. For a spicier slaw, increase the amount of jalapeño, considering leaving the seeds and membrane intact for added heat. It's best enjoyed fresh, especially with thinly shredded cabbage. If preparing ahead of time, slice the cabbage a bit thicker to maintain its texture. Serve this Baja Spicy Coleslaw alongside other keto-friendly recipes like Roasted Pork Shoulder.
These no-bake Keto cheesecake bites are a creamy, decadent, and delicious dessert option. With a rich, chocolatey crust and a velvety filling that melts in your mouth, they're surprisingly easy to make in just 20 minutes of active prep time. The recipe yields 12 mini cupcake-sized bites, or 6-8 regular cupcake-sized ones. It can also be adapted for a 6" springform pan, or doubled for a 9" pan. The crust uses almond flour, making it gluten-free and Keto-friendly. Toasting the almond flour is essential for a flavorful, crispy crust, but you can substitute crushed Keto chocolate cookies for a no-toast option, reducing the sweetener accordingly. Gelatin powder is necessary for firming up the bites; omitting it will require freezer storage.
You can make this Keto snack recipe whenever you want to feed a group or simply get in touch with your inner child! Who doesn love to pop a little pig in a blanket as a snack? Cocktail weenies are wrapped in flakey dough, brushed in butter, and baked until golden. The only difference between traditional style pigs in a blanket and this Keto version is the dough used. You ll be using Keto fathead dough, which is made with a blend of almond flour and cheese. The dough requires a little patience to roll out, but it bakes very similarly to a homemade pie crust. You ll love the buttery flavor and flakey texture on your Keto diet. Increase the recipe yield to make as many pigs in a blanket as you wish. You can keep leftovers in your refrigerator for up to 5 days, and just microwave them whenever you want a snack. Pigs in a blanket are a decidedly American snack, and they re often set out for holiday parties and really large group gatherings. They re especially great for feeding kids! The conveniently easy snack to prepare was coined in the 1950s, and many think the recipe emigrated from Eastern Europe. The non-Keto version is usually made with raw crescent roll dough, which is bought in the iconic popping tubes. Using Keto fathead dough is the only change made to this fun snack recipe! Cocktail weenies shouldn be too difficult to find at most grocery stores (they ll be stocked amongst the other smoked and pre-cooked sausages). If you can find them, the closest substitute you ll find is hotdogs, which you can cut into smaller pieces. If you happen to live in an area where hotdogs would never be stocked on the shelves, look for other processed meats like small smoked salami and sausages. Almost any pork-based sausage can substitute for cocktail weenies in one way or another. Jessica L.

These spicy chicken skewers are perfect for those who love a kick! Tender chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of oil and spices, then roasted on skewers until perfectly cooked. A vibrant, scratch-made verde sauce, balanced with cool sour cream, is spooned over the skewers for an explosion of flavor. With minimal hands-on prep time (just 10-15 minutes!), these skewers are great for meal prepping. Marinate the chicken for at least 4 hours, then roast and enjoy! For meal prepping, cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The creamy verde sauce can be reheated or served cold. Pair with sauteed keto vegetables, cauliflower rice, or use in tacos, meal bowls, or salads. Adjust the heat of the verde sauce by using less or no jalapeno, or substitute with a pinch of dried red pepper flakes. Recipe by Jessica L.
This Keto Labor Day dessert recipe requires only three ingredients: 100% dark chocolate, heavy whipping cream, and a little powdered erythritol. Choose real dark chocolate, not bitter or bitter-sweet, which still includes added sugar. To make the dessert sweeter on the Keto diet, add liquid stevia for a zero-carb way to add sweetness. Keep the finished mousse cold in your refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can enjoy the recipe as your own special treat or bring larger batches to family gatherings. Another way to make the chocolate ganache in Step 1 is to chop and add all the chocolate to a heat-safe bowl. Heat the heavy cream in a small pot until the cream starts bubbling. Just before the cream reaches simmering, remove it from the stove and pour it over the bowl of chopped chocolate. Cover the bowl immediately with a piece of aluminum foil and leave it undisturbed for 5 minutes. Then, stir the warm ingredients together until they combine in the ganache. To make your mousse appear more air-whipped and thicker, add a small amount of gelatin to your mousse in Step 3 before you spoon or pipe it into serving containers. When the mousse chills, it will have more wiggle and jiggle to it. Another way to make a denser mousse is to include an unsweetened pudding mix that also doesn include non-Keto sugar substitutes.
