Okay, this is really a bit more like ramen, but it doesn’t sound as fun that way.. 🙂 While I don’t often crave pasta on a low-carb diet, I definitely miss ramen and pho, so I threw this together and it really scratches the itch. Bonus points for it being really, really easy to make…

Easy Slow-Cooker Pork Tenderloin
This slow-cooker pork tenderloin comes out so juicy and tender, and it’s the simplest thing ever to make. Literally just throw it all in the slow-cooker and walk away for 4 hours. Pair it up with some garlic mash or sautéed garlic greens on the side.
Low-Carb Chicken-Portobello Broilers
These low-carb mushroom caps require a broiler, although you could probably make them in the oven without one – I’m just not sure how long the cook time would be. It can also be a little tricky for folks who aren’t good at cooking two things at once (like me), but the cook time is…
Keto White Chicken “Chili”
This comes out a little less thick than a traditional chili – sort of a cross between chili and soup, but you could add some beef gelatin proteins to it to thicken it up if that bothers you. (It’s delicious either way.) This could also work over shirataki noodles or zoodles to make it go…
Cream of Mushroom Soup
This one is a favorite in the winter time. While it’s not as low-carb as other options here, it’s quite filling and could easily be used as a main dish instead of a soup/side. It is a little on the pricey side, all things considered (it’s surprising how expensive mushrooms are!) Tip: There is a…
Keto Instant Pot Cream Cheese Chicken with “Noodles”
Variations of this recipe go by the name “crack chicken” in the keto-world (because it’s so addictive), but that seems like kind of a crappy, classist way to describe it, so I just call it cream cheese chicken. It is pretty addictive however, and comes in at just 6g net carbs. I add shirataki noodles…
Stuffed Chicken Parm Meatloaf
This recipe is not as quick as the others, but it is easy, and comes in at just 4g net carbs per serving. The ingredients are broken down into sections (meatloaf and the filling), which might be a little confusing, so here’s the full list of combined ingredients you need in the event you’re making…
Easy Keto Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops
These are fantastic, and super quick/simple to make – and weigh in at an amazing 1g carb! They pair really well with the cauliflower mash as a side, but also some simple asparagus, broccoli, spinach or kale sautéed in butter and garlic work great too. For the crushed pork rinds, you can buy pre-crushed, or…
Quick and Easy Shrimp Scampi
This is a go-to for when I don’t have enough can’ts to even but we’re starving. It takes about 12-15 minutes from start to finish, and is perfect in its buttery garlic glory. I use shirataki noodles here, but zoodles or other pasta alternatives would work just fine. You could also remove the noodles or…
Fast Keto Taco Salad
We make this one all the time, since it’s so quick and easy to make, and since there’s only two of us, it lasts us for DAAAAAYS. We usually mix the leftover taco meat into scrambled eggs in the morning and top with some sour cream for a super-fast breakfast that sticks to our macros….
