You can cook these friend broccoli bites one of two ways - either deep fried in your favorite low carb cooking oil or in an air fryer. The oil does add some flavor, but also adds in some calories and fat.

Broccoli Bites Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 Head broccoli cut into florets
  • 1 c. Crushed pork rind crumbs
  • ½ c. Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 Cloves minced garlic
  • 2 Eggs beaten
  • Oil for frying or an air fryer if desired

How To Make Broccoli Bites

If frying in oil on the stove, place the oil in a deep skillet or pot, and begin to heat it over medium heat. If you are using an air fryer, begin to preheat it if needed.

Place the crushed pork rind crumbs, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, as well as salt and pepper to taste in a shallow bowl, and combine well.

In another shallow bowl, combine the two eggs and 2 cloves of garlic. Beat together to combine well.

Dredge the broccoli florets in the egg mixture, and then immediately into the pork rind mixture.

Place them on a plate until you have finished coating all of the broccoli florets.

Place the coated broccoli into the heated oil using tongs.

Cook for 3-5 minutes until the outside is golden brown, and the broccoli is tender. You can flip the florets from time to time with the tongs to make sure all sides cook evenly.

Do not heat your oil up too quickly or at a high temperature, because the outside of your broccoli bites will burn while the inside remains uncooked.

Serve immediately with your favorite keto friendly dipping sauce.

Sausage Egg Roll In A Bowl

By 3 Comments

sausage egg roll in a bowl

This Sausage Egg Roll In A Bowl is a delicious and simple keto recipe the entire family will love. Low in carbs and calories, this is a guilt-free low carb version of egg rolls that will satisfy your craving and keep you on track with your low-carb goals.

sausage egg roll in a bowl

This easy egg roll in a bowl recipe only takes a few ingredients and saves well making it the perfect keto meal prep idea. It is extremely versatile making it a great recipe for busy weeknights. It is an easy recipe to keep you on track with the keto diet or just want to have a filling meal with less sugar.

This recipe is made with a package of pork sausage, but you can also use ground beef, ground turkey, or even ground chicken. When using turkey or chicken I do add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or coconut oil as there is less fat than the pork sausage. Similarly, you can swap out the bag of coleslaw for a bag of broccoli slaw and add in a few water chestnuts for an equally delicious dish.

egg roll in a bowl

To keep this low carb egg roll in a bowl recipe keto-friendly, I recommend using coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. Coconut aminos are soy-, wheat-, and gluten-free and have almost the same amount of carbs as a light soy sauce. The flavor is almost identical though some feel the liquid aminos have a less salty flavor.

Traditional egg rolls are of course wrapped in wonton wrappers, but you can keep this keto by enjoying them as lettuce wraps or just eating with a fork like a deconstructed egg roll! If you want a little more to the meal you can also put the keto egg roll mixture over cauliflower rice with some sriracha sauce to add a little kick!

I love these spicy chicken nuggets dipped in my Whole30 / Keto Ranch Dressing!

Keto Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients:

  • 2 lb. Boneless skinless chicken tenderloin strips
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 1 c. Crushed pork rind crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • ½ teaspoon Paprika
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying (I use avocado oil) or an air fryer to use instead if desired

How To Make Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Begin by placing your oil into a deep skillet or pot, and heating it over medium high heat on the stovetop. If you are using an air fryer instead, begin to get it preheated if needed.

Cut the chicken tenderloin strips into bite sized “popcorn” pieces.

In a shallow bowl, place the two beaten eggs plus salt and pepper to taste.

In a separate shallow bowl, combine the crushed pork rind crumbs, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin and paprika. Mix to combine all of the ingredients together well.

Dredge the chicken nugget pieces in first the egg mixture, and then coat them in the pork rind crumb mixture. Place them onto a plate until you have finished coating all of the chicken pieces.

Place the chicken pieces into the heated oil with tongs. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned on the outside and fully cooked on the inside. Be careful not to heat your oil on high heat. If your oil is smoking, the outside of your spicy chicken nuggets will burn before the inside is fully cooked.

Serve with your favorite keto approved dipping sauces.

Like I mentioned in my Keto Lemon Blueberry Bread post, I am obsessed with keto baking right now. I have tried so many store-bought keto baked goods, and they all just miss the mark.

The problem I find with keto baking is it is easy for foods to dry out. This Keto Cinnamon Bread stays moist and makes the perfect breakfast to start your day off right!

I absolutely love all things cinnamon and it is so good for you! I put cinnamon directly into my coffee when it brews and also add it to my Keto Apple Cider Detox Drink every morning! So tasty!

According to Healthline, cinnamon is loaded with antioxidants anti-inflammatory properties and can also improve insulin sensitivity - which is great for those living a ketogenic lifestyle. Cinnamon is even being studied for its effects on cancer!

Like I mentioned in my Fresh Strawberry Keto Fat Bombs Recipe, I am a little obsessed with fresh strawberries right now. But these cookies are tasty with or without the strawberries!

Macadamia Nuts are a delicious healthy fat that are said to have great health benefits. From improving brain function to heart health to preventing disease and strengthening bones - these little nuts are nutrient powerhouses!

Plus they are buttery and delicious and make these Keto Macadamia Nut Cookies one of my all time favorites.

I have also recently discovered Oh! Nuts Almond Flour and love it! Almond Flour can be pretty pricey - and I found it on Amazon at a fraction of the price my local grocery store offered.

Since I use it for practically everything these days I got the big bag which seals up perfectly between uses! This is my new Keto Staple for sure.

Keto Chicken Stir Fry

By 2 Comments

This Keto Chicken Stir Fry is a simple weeknight meal that the whole family will love. Super easy to make and saves well - making it a great keto lunch idea too!

keto stir fry

My husband loves stir fry, and one of the reasons we have both been so successful is that I have made keto variations of all of our favorite foods. Making a keto stir fry was a no brainer.

First, if you have not added coconut aminos to your Keto Kitchen, order this right now. Coconut Aminos are very close to the flavor of soy sauce but have a buttery flavor that enhances flavor even more!

I also use them in my Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl! So yummy!

I also used Swerve Brown Sugar Substitute to give this keto stir fry recipe but a touch of sweetness. I have not seen this in the stores yet, but I am holding out hope it will be there soon. Until then I get mine from Amazon.

Keto Asian Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs. Boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • ¼ c. Low sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 2-3 tablespoon Swerve brown sugar substitute
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 Medium sized zucchini sliced
  • 1 Medium sized yellow squash sliced
  • 2 Bell peppers chopped
  • ½ Medium onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How To Make Keto Stir Fry

Place 2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs into a large mixing bowl.

Add the coconut aminos, lemon juice, brown sugar substitute, garlic powder, sesame oil, rice vinegar and black pepper to a small mixing bowl, and stir to combine.

Pour the mixture over the chicken, and toss to coat well. Place the chicken in the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes.

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the zucchini and yellow squash. Chop the onion and bell peppers into large bite-sized chunks, and combine all the prepared vegetables in a mixing bowl.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the bottom.

Add the chicken to the skillet, reserving the leftover marinade for later.

Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until it is seared well and completely cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the skillet, and add another tablespoon of olive oil.

Pour the chopped vegetables into the heated skillet, and add salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the vegetables are a crisp tender.

Slice the cooked chicken thighs into strips, and add them back into the skillet with the vegetables.

Reduce the heat to medium-low, and pour in the rest of the reserved marinade. Cook for another few minutes tossing the ingredients to coat them well in the sauce.

Serve the stir fry on its own, or with your favorite keto-friendly side.

MACROS

I plugged this recipe into my favorite Keto Calculator App - Carb Manager - and it came up with the following macros:

Each serving of Keto Chicken Stir Fry has 10 net carbs, 12 total carbs, 2 g fiber, 13 g fat, 31 g protein, and 290 calories. This gives it a B rating. The carb count is a bit high, so this would be good for a day you are doing intermittent fasting.

Brussels Sprouts are absolutely my favorite keto side dish no matter what the protein. My Garlic Balsamic Brussels Sprouts are a go-to favorite. But I wanted something different this week so I got a little creative.

These Keto Brussels Sprouts in Pecan Butter are much more tender but still have so much flavor!

Now to be fair, I am not a huge fan of boiled brussels sprouts - but the trick here is to boil them in bone broth - not just water! This not only gives you added nutrients but also tons of flavor!

Keto Brussels Sprouts in Pecan Butter

Serves 6

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts
  • 2 c. Bone broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 c. Onion chopped
  • ¼ c. Butter
  • ½ c. Chopped pecans

Instructions:

Place 2 cups of bone broth into a large saucepan.

Add 1 pound of brussel sprouts to the pan with the bone broth. Cook the sprouts in the broth over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes until tender, but still a bit crisp.

Remove the brussel sprouts from the liquid, let them cool slightly, and cut them in half lengthwise.

In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt ¼ c. of butter.

Once hot, add the onions to the skillet, and stir to coat in the melted butter. Cook the onions until they are browned and softened.

Add the sliced brussel sprouts into the skillet, mixing to combine them well with the onions. Saute the brussel sprouts for 1-2 minutes.

Push the brussels sprouts over to one side of the skillet, and add the chopped pecans to the empty space.

Toast the pecans for 1-2 minutes, and then toss in with the brussels sprouts. Serve with your favorite Keto Entree.

Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup

By Leave a Comment

This time of year all I want to do is curl up with a bowl of keto soup and a big blanket. This Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup lets me do just that - and keeps me on track with my goals!

keto broccoli cheese soup

Sadly most store-bought keto broccoli cheddar soup options are loaded with additives and... well, do not taste good. Trust me, I have tried them in my hunt to find a keto friendly broccoli and cheese soup.

The good news is it is super simple to make on your own keto cheese and broccoli soup, and once you do, you will wonder why you ever bought it from a store anyway!

Keto broccoli cheddar soup is the perfect meal on these super cold winter nights. For an extra kick, add crumbled bacon on top for a bit of crunch!

Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup

Serves 8

Ingredients:

  • 5 tablespoon Butter unsalted (divided)
  • 1 c Chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
  • 2 c Heavy whipping cream
  • 2 c Chicken bone broth
  • 3 c Chopped cooked broccoli
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 8 oz Shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.

Add the onions, and saute for 2-3 minutes until they begin to become tender. Remove the cooked onions, and reserve them for later.

Lower the heat to medium, and melt 4 tablespoon of unsalted butter in the pot.

Whisk 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum in with the butter, and cook stirring continuously for another 30 seconds.

Slowly whisk in 2 cups of heavy whipping cream, a little at a time. You will notice that the cream begins to thicken quickly, this will get thinned out when the broth is added.

Mix in the 2 cups of bone broth. If your mixture is too thick for your liking, you can add in more broth to thin it out.

Add in the chopped cooked broccoli.

Stir in a pinch of nutmeg, and 8 oz of shredded cheddar cheese until dissolved.

Reduce the heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. If your soup is too thin, you can add a tiny bit of xanthan gum, but add it just a pinch at a time, a little goes a long way.

Homemade Pesto Recipe

By 104 Comments

I received a Mealthy Handblend for the purpose of this review. All thoughts and images are my own.

Once you make this Homemade Pesto, you will never want store bought again! Simple ingredients blend together for the perfect keto friendly recipe!

homemade pesto

I have become a bit obsessed with making homemade pesto since I received my Mealthy Handblend Immersion Blender. In fact, I am using it to make all kinds of things now.

The Mealthy Handblend is a 100% BPA-free stainless steel immersion blender that lets you easily puree, chop, whisk, blend, and much more. It even comes with blender, whisk, and chopper attachments.

The Mealthy Handblend makes it easy to blend soups right in the pot, whip up a quick smoothie in the morning, and to make all of my favorite condiments in seconds.

My keto mayo used to take forever to make in my food processor - but with my Mealthy Handblend, I have mayo in minutes! You can't beat that!

Homemade Pesto Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups fresh basil
  • ⅓ cup pine nuts
  • 2 tablespoon grated parmesan
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • a pinch of salt

Instructions:

Begin by toasting your Pine Nuts just a bit to really bring out their flavor.

Heat a skillet to medium high with just a few drops of olive oil. I love my cast iron skillet for this. Be careful not to overcook. This cast iron skillet is perfect!

While pine nuts are cooling add all other ingredients to the Mealthy Handblend Blender Cup.

Attach the Blade Attachment to the main housing unit of the Mealthy Handblend.

Add in pine nuts once they have cooled and blend - moving your blender up and down in the blender cup to fully blend all ingredients.

With the Mealthy Handblend you can choose the speed from the rotary dial right on top. If you want even more power, hit the Turbo button! I alternated between the two for the best blend.

It takes just a few minutes you will have the perfect creamy homemade pesto that is keto friendly and ready to be used on all of your favorite pesto recipes - like my Keto Pesto Chicken!

You can even make homemade whipped cream in seconds with the whisk attachment!

MACROS

Pesto is a perfect keto condiment because it is full of flavor with very few carbs. In fact this recipe makes approximately one cup of pesto, and the entire cup only has about 6 carbs!

Each tablespoon of this homemade pesto has less than 1 gram of carbs, 1 net carb, 0 fiber, 9 g fat, 1 g protein and 82 calories!

Easy Keto Pumpkin Pie

By 2 Comments

This Keto Pumpkin Pie will help you stay on track this holiday season while still feeling like you are indulging in your favorite holiday pie!

Easy to make and full of flavor, this Low Carb Pumpkin Pie will be a crowd favorite for sure. 

keto pumpkin pie

My Keto Pecan Pie was a huge hit at Thanksgiving, so I decided to step it up a bit and try a Keto Pumpkin Pie. This low carb pumpkin pie is so tasty you won't even miss the sugar! 

For the sake of convenience I used canned pumpkin, but you can make your own by simply roasting fresh cubed pumpkin and then pureeing in a food processor. 

easy keto pumpkin pie

Some canned pumpkin varieties are actually higher in carbs because of added ingredients, but you can keep the carb count as low as possible simply by roasting your own pure pumpkin. 

As with all Keto Recipes, it is always best to measure and calculate your own ingredients to make sure your macros are as accurate as possible.

Prebake the dough in a 350 degree oven for 5-10 minutes. Poke holes in the bottom of the crust with a fork before placing it in the oven. Remove the crust, and let cool.

If the crust begins to get too dark, you can cover it with some aluminum foil. Bake until the center of the pie is set and no longer jiggles when moved.

Cool the pie completely, and place in the fridge to chill. Serve cold with some freshly whipped cream on top.

Delicious Butterscotch Hot Chocolate

By 3 Comments

Is it getting cold where you are? This delicious Butterscotch Hot Chocolate is a must have this season to help you warm up from the inside! 

butterscotch hot chocolate

The weather has been absolutely crazy this season here on the Gulf Coast. Just two nights ago we had a freeze warning, and now as I sit here typing this it is over 70* and raining.

However, in another day or two, the temperatures will be plummeting again, and that is when we will be curling up in front of the fireplace with a warm cup of hot chocolate.

Midge absolutely loves the flavor of butterscotch - probably because for as long as I can remember, her grandpa has always carried butterscotch in his pocket and given her one every time he sees her.

I wanted to surprise her with her favorite treats together in one - Butterscotch Hot Chocolate.

I did not tell Midge before I served this, and watching her eyes light up when she tasted the difference was perfect!

The butterscotch chips give your hot chocolate just that little extra kick of flavor without being too overly sweet. This will definitely be how we serve her favorite hot beverage from now on!

Simple Keto Pecan Pie

By 1 Comment

If you are looking for the best tasting Keto Pecan Pie that lets you enjoy the holidays without stressing over carbs, I have the one for you! 

keto pecan pie

Nothing says "Happy Holidays" like a warm pecan pie. But those of us watching our carbs may feel like we have to miss out on sweets this season. 

I personally think having low carb options for our favorite foods will help longterm success with keto.

This keto pie crust is easy to make and stays light and flaky without taking away from the delicious filling. 

I caught myself nibbling on it even before it was cooked - like cookie dough! So yum!

Keto Pecan Pie

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

  • ½ c Coconut Flour
  • 1 ⅓ c Almond Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Xanthan gum (I like this one)
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 13 tablespoon Very cold butter

For the Filling:

  • ½ c. Keto Pecan Maple Syrup (I love this one)
  • 2 Eggs
  • ½ c Erythritol
  • 2 tablespoon Butter unsalted
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ c Chopped pecans
  • 2 tablespoon Brandy
  • 1 tablespoon Heavy whipping cream
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325*.

Start by creating your crust. Place all of the ingredients for the crust except the butter into a mixing bowl, and combine well.

Cut the cold butter into the other ingredients, and beat with your mixer until well combined. You can alternatively use a food processor and pulse until combined if you like.

Empty the dough onto some plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and place in the fridge for at least an hour.

Once chilled, remove the dough, and push it into a greased pie pan. You can mold the dough out flat all the way around the pie pan, and pinch together the crust at the top. Try to distribute the dough as evenly as possible.

Once the dough is lining the pie pan, poke holes in the bottom with a fork. Pre-bake the crust for 10 minutes, remove and let cool.

To create the filling, mix all of the ingredients except the pecans in a mixing bowl. Combine well.

Line the bottom of the cooled crust with 1 ½ cups of chopped pecans.

Pour the filling mixture over the pecans, and level it out.

Bake for 50 minutes or an hour until the filling has set. If the crust begins to get too brown, you can coverit with tin foil and continue to bake.

Let the pie cool, and serve chilled. This crust is quite flaky, so if you are worried about presentation, use caution when cutting pieces and transferring them to plates.
