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…
Keto Cauliflower Mash
I finally learned to love mashed potatoes the year before we went keto, so that was a tough loss for me. After experimenting with different recipes, this is my favorite. While it doesn’t taste identical, it’s so salty and buttery, it’s just as good as any mashed potatoes I’ve had. The prep/cook times here are…
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….
Quick Keto Yellow Curry Scramble
This is seriously one of my favorite recipes to make in the morning. It’s super fast, really healthy and tastes delicious. (I normally skip the tomatoes, just because other than adding some color, they don’t add that much and cost you a few carbs, but make it however you like. Skipping the tomatoes will save…
Keto Cheese Quesadillas
This is based off of the low-carb coconut flour tortillas, so you’ll want to practice making them before promising your partner an easy keto meal. You can either start a new tortilla in the pan and wait until it firms up a little to add the cheese, or cheat and just microwave the finished tortillas…
Low-Carb Coconut Flour Tortillas
I know in the About page, I mentioned that all of these recipes are meant to be easy. This might be the one exception – and even then it’s not hard, it just takes a little practice to get the thickness of the batter just right as you’re cooking them. Too thick and it comes…
Keto Instant Pot Mushroom-Smothered Pork Chops
This is another favorite that makes a TON of leftover sauce which can be used over cauliflower rice, your morning eggs (think hollandaise), or over hard-boiled eggs. All that extra sauce means you can stretch it for days, even if you finish the pork quickly. You can also use 6 pork chops instead of 4…
Horseradish Deviled Eggs
These are always a party pleaser, but we make them weekly just to make sure we have some great low-carb snacks laying around for when we’re too stupid to remember to eat until late afternoon. They’re a twist on traditional deviled eggs, with a little bit of horseradish kick.
Instant Pot Keto Butter Chicken
This dish is absolutely spectacular, and it makes a TON of leftover sauce which can then be refrigerated and/or frozen to be used in any variety of dishes for the Dinrest of the week. (I like to use the sauce over scrambled eggs as a quick and easy breakfast, but it could be used for…
