HOMEMADE KETO BLUEBERRY BREAD RECIPE

After my pumpkin bread turned out so delicious, I was excited to experiment with various other flavors. The challenge in creating a recipe for loaves of bread that are keto-friendly is you don’t want them to taste eggy because when you are craving bread, you aren’t craving eggs. (Can I get an amen?) However, it is a delicate balance to add enough to get the right amount of moisture without being too eggy. It takes some practice, but once you figure out how to make the bread moist, it’s all downhill from there.

I was shocked at how good this Keto blueberry bread recipe turned out. Somehow, the bread was amazingly crusty, which means that it is not eggy! I call that a success. When I asked my son to taste it, he responded with, “Mom, that is good. Yum!” That in itself is a success in my book.

How To Make Low Carb Peanut Butter Mousse

It’s hard to believe that something so good is low in carbs, contains healthy fats, AND taste amazing! Believe it or not, this fluffy mousse takes just a few minutes to whip up, so you don’t need to wait long to enjoy it. It is so rich in flavor yet super-light; you’ll be satisfied with just a few bites! I love it, even more, when I top it with Lily’s chocolate chips. Chocolate and peanut butter, how can you go wrong? So if you feel like indulging or have a craving for something sweet, this is it!

Ingredients:

  • Heavy Whipping Cream: This is the base of the mousse and is what creates the fluffy and airy result you want out of a mousse.
  • Cream Cheese: Cream cheese gives your keto mousse a nice, creamy consistency while adding more fat to the dessert.
  • Peanut Butter: Peanut butter adds healthy fat as well as flavor to your mousse. My favorite natural peanut butter to use in this mousse is Smucker’s Natural.
  • Swerve Confectioners Sugar: This is a great sugar-free keto-friendly way to add sweetness to your mousse. You can also use Lakanto Monkfruit Powdered at the same measurement.
  • Vanilla Extract: Vanilla adds a delicious flavor that goes a long way in this recipe.

I love pizza. I mean, I love it. Pizza for dinner last night? No problem, I’ll eat pizza for dinner again tonight. So, when we started following a keto lifestyle, I was a little concerned because completely giving up pizza made me feel sad. Yes, I love it that much. So, one of the very first recipes I started looking for was an easy pizza recipe.

I had already tried several different cauliflower crusts, and my family is just not sold on such an atrocity. Maybe there are better recipes for a fabulous cauliflower crust. However, I haven’t found it yet. I came up with the perfect Keto Pizza Casserole without cauliflower. It’s easy to make, satisfying, and tastes like a smorgasbord of deliciousness.

Creamy & Delicious Homemade Keto Coconut Cake

My favorite dessert is my grandmother’s homemade coconut cake that I’ve been missing since we started following a keto lifestyle. I always make her recipe for Christmas and Easter, but this year I thought I’d tackle creating a keto version without all the carbs and sugar. Making a keto cake recipe that is moist is no easy taste due to keto-friendly sweeteners having such a different texture than regular white fluffy gluten-filled flour. I tried several different versions of this cake before I was satisfied with the finished product. I’m pretty sure I may have referred to the final version as dessert heaven.continue reading…

KETO BBQ CHICKEN CASSEROLE RECIPE

Years ago, we used to order a meal at Chili’s Restaurant that included a chicken breast smothered in bbq sauce, bacon, and cheese. Since we’ve started following a keto/low carb lifestyle, I thought it would make a fabulous dinner. So, last weekend when my in-laws were in town, we went to Chili’s for dinner. I was so excited to order this again, but to my dismay, it’s no longer offered on the menu. Looking back, it is probably a good thing since regular BBQ sauce is so high in carbs. 

Instead, our waitress was happy to oblige and asked the kitchen to make me something similar without BBQ sauce. Although it was yummy, BBQ sauce would have made it amazing. Since then, I have worked on a new recipe for a low carb BBQ Sauce using my family’s original recipe that I tweaked. It made such a huge difference. 

This BBQ Keto Chicken Casserole with Bacon & Cheese turned out incredibly delicious, and it was so easy to make! My entire family loved it. You can find the recipe for my homemade low carb BBQ sauce here.

Keto Low Carb Taco Cups

As a busy mom of 4 kids, I am always looking for ways to incorporate our Keto/low carb lifestyle in recipes that my kids will enjoy. I think it is easier to find creative ways to prepare a recipe so that it can be eaten differently instead of always looking for brand new recipes. One of my kid’s favorite go-to meals is tacos. My kids eat theirs on tortillas while my hubby and I eat our taco meat on a bed of lettuce. I usually cook extra so that the kids and I can eat it for lunch as well.

Even though my kids probably wouldn’t care if we had taco night once a week, I was looking for a way to change it up and came up with Low Carb Taco Cups. I’ve enjoyed tweaking my Keto Biscuit recipe to make a low carb version of Keto Low Carb Chicken Pot Pie, Keto Sausage Ball Recipe, and Cheesy Keto Breadsticks and thought it would also be perfect for this recipe as well. Although my kids were a little skeptical at first, they ended up eating several low carb Taco Cups and enjoying them. You know a keto recipe is good when it gets the stamp of approval from your kids.

Beef stew…ahhh…probably the most comforting meal in the world. When I thought about making a Keto/Low Carb Beef Stew, I wasn’t sure how it would turn out or even what vegetables to use! I thought, how am I going to make a deliciously healthy beef stew without potatoes and carrots? (since they are too high in carbs). I was hesitant about using radishes as first, but the combination of radishes, tomatoes, celery, mushrooms, and onions will quickly make you forget about those potatoes and carrots! Trust me. They make this simple keto beef stew taste just like the old fashioned beef stew our parents would make back in the good ole days!

Pair this low carb beef stew with my Keto Cheddar Biscuits, and I can guarantee you’ll go back for seconds.continue reading…

The Very Best Keto Grocery List { Free Printable}

Shared by 44 Comments

When just getting started following a keto diet, all of the different foods can seem overwhelming. I created this basic printable keto grocery list for beginners to take the guesswork out of grocery shopping. All the foods on this list are low in net carbs to help guide you as you buy groceries.

The Very Best Keto Grocery List

I’ve had many people ask for a Keto Grocery List. At first, I was hesitant because I am a picky eater and tend to stick to the same foods over and over. I know that most people eat a larger variety of foods than I do. At the same time, when I was researching Keto Grocery Lists, so many seemed overwhelming and included many foods that even after almost a year of following a Keto Diet, I have never used.

With that in mind, I created a basic Keto Grocery List as a helpful resource. My goal is to make following a Keto Diet simple. It isn’t necessary to purchase every food item on this list. Consider it a helpful guide when you are at the grocery store. Instead of going out and buying all the foods on this list for the sake of stocking your pantry, I would suggest creating a keto meal plan first. Then, shop weekly for those foods that you need so that you build your keto pantry as needed. continue reading…
