Low Carb Chocolate Chip Muffins

Leave a comment

Have you ever wanted to have cookies for breakfast? Maybe when you were a kid, but now you can have that for breakfast WITHOUT it being a cookie!

These muffins come together quickly and taste very much like a chocolate chip cookie! The use of coconut flour helps keep these nut free but also balances out the ingredients so it has a moist and tender crumb!

They do keep well in the fridge and are even better when warmed up!

Low Carb Pork Fried “Rice”

Leave a comment

My memories of Chinese take out usually involve fried rice! As a kid I would always get the chicken, my brother and Dad the beef, my Mom would get the pork. It wasn’t until I was older that I appreciated more flavors other than chicken!

My husband is a big pork fan so I made this skillet meal happen! It pays off to get the meat well seasoned and sauced before adding everythibg else! If you do not have fish sauce, consider purchasing some here as even though it’s only 1/4 tsp, it really adds the “restaurant secret ingredient” that tops off the flavors well!!

Low Carb Pork Fried “Rice”

For the meat step:

1 Tbsp sesame seed oil

1 lb ground pork

2 Tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp worchestershire sauce

1/4 tsp fish sauce

2 tsp monkfruit sweetener, or erithrytol comparative

2 cloves garlic, minced

For the veggie step:

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 celery stalk, diced fine

1/2 bag coleslaw mix

1 Tbsp sesame seed oil

For the egg step:

1 tbsp sesame oil

3 eggs; beaten

1 tsp soy sauce

Plus

1 bag of Green Giant Riced Cauliflower, steamed or stir fried till tender,approx 5 min

In a large skillet, cast iron preferred, on medium high heat start to brown and crumble the meat with the sesame seed oil. While its cooking, add and work in the other ingredients including salt and pepper. Once cooked, remove from skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the sesame oil from the veggie step. Stir in the minced garlic then throw in the veggies. Stir fry veggies till the carrots are al dente as they are the firmest veggie in the slaw mix. Top off with a pinch of black pepper.

Now stir the meat back into the skillet mixing well.

Push it all to one side and add in oil from egg step, followed by the whisked eggs and soy sauce. Keep it in that side of the skillet gently scrambling them in the pan. Once the eggs are all cooked, stir everything together, mixing well.

Take the skillet off of the heat and stir the prepared cauli-rice into it.

Serve with additional soy sauce as desired.

See,I told you I am a wafflehead!

The chaffle part uses cream cheese and is super light which goes perfect with the heavy filling!!

Keto Chocolate Chip Chaffle

1 egg
3 Tbsp monkfruit/or erithrytol
1/4 tsp maple extract
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 c mozzarella
1 tbsp coconut flour
2 tbsp choc chips.

Warm up waffleiron to medium heat.

Whisk egg. Add everything to the bowl EXCEPT coconut flour & chocolate chips.

Whisk. Then add coconut flour.

Whisk well. Fold in chocolate chips.

Makes 3 waffles
.
.
Swerve brown sugar OR Sukrin Gold can stand in for monkfruit and maple extract. Its cheaper to get the extract and granulated sweetener though!

The one in the main picture has fresh whipped cream sweetened with stevia. Then I froze it for 15 minutes!! So wonderful this way! Or cut into strips and dunk in some unsweetened almond milk!!

Quick Keto Personal Pizza

5 Comments

I have always been a pizza lover! I remember ordering a hand tossed meat lovers from Dominos every Friday in my 20s.

I have since gone gluten free then keto, so that’s out. Plus its healthier to make your own! I love the fathead pizza dough recipe, but found myself without the famous gluten free flours of coconut and almond.

This is flour free, nut free and virtually sauce free! Comes together quick and can be doubled to feed 3 to 4. The recipe as is feeds 1 to 2. I ended up cutting it into little squares and topping my salad with it!

Lets make some pizza, quick!!

Quick Keto Personal Pizza

2 cups shredded mozzerella, divided

1/4 cup parmesean cheese, fresh shredded is recommended

2 eggs

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp Italian seasoning (or pinch of each: oregano,basil,marjarom)

Preheat oven to 400°.

Mix 1 cup shredded mozzerella with parmesean, eggs and dry ingredients.

Spread out onto parchment lined pizza pan.

Bake at 400° for 12 minutes.

Add 1 tbsp sauce or pureed sun dried tomato paste, then 1/2 cup cheese, then meat and veggies, plus remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.

Cook an additional 7 minutes.

Cool 5 minutes.

Eat!

Keto Banana Cream Fat Bombs

1 Comment

I love banana cream pie! These remind me of that but in an icing kind of way!

This is not only good to ice some keto cupcakes with, but use a cookie scoop and make these gems!

I sprinkled a bit of cacao nibs on top😋

Start off with your mixer and whisk beater, and a softened block of cream cheese and softened block of butter. I found some unsalted Kerrygold butter on sale, so I just added 1/2tsp himalayan salt.

Make sure they are softened. Cream together then add 2 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp banana extract! Sweeten with 4 to 5 TBSP powdered swerve. Whip well till you get this…..

Then you can either use a cookie scoop and scoop onto a wax paper lined pan…..or just dollop with a tablespoon.

I also have silicone pans that I scoop into for portion control!

I had some cacao nibs so I sprinkled some on top!

Cacao nibs are 1 net carb per Tbsp, just for reference! They are the cocoa bean that has been dried and cracked. Loads of good for you antioxidants.

Keto Banana Cream Fat Bombs

1/2 lb (8oz) grassfed butter salted (if unsalted add 1/2 tsp salt)

1 pkg. Cream cheese (8oz)

4 to 5 Tbsp powdered Swerve (powdered is needed)

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp other extract (I used Frontier Banana Extract. Mint, almond, or maple would be good. Use additional vanilla if you want.)

Soften cream cheese and butter. Add to mixer with a whisk attachment. Whip till creamed together. Add in sweetener and extracts. Whip more. Dollop onto lined pan or pushed into silicone shaped tray. Freeze. Remove and store in freezer or fridge up to 2 wks.
