Low Carb Cheese Steaks – KETO Friendly!

By Leave a Comment

Low Carb Cheese Steaks

Cheesesteaks are my weakness. Along with stuffed peppers. All the carby goodness. Bread-less meat and cheese just wasn’t cutting it & I’m desperately missing one of my Nonna’s stuffed peppers.

So here we are, the best of both worlds: Cheese-Steak Stuffed Peppers.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Bell Peppers
  • Meat of choice, thinly sliced (I used Italian beef, but anything works!)
  • 4 oz. Mushrooms
  • 1/2 Onion, sliced
  • 8 slices of Provolone cheese

Steps:

  1. Preheat oven to degrees F
  2. Boil a pot of salted water
  3. Cut bell peppers in half, remove the seeds
  4. Blanch peppers for 5-6 minutes
  5. Saute meat, mushrooms and onions until cooked through and caramelized
  6. Dry peppers and place in a baking dish

 

Place a slice of cheese into the bottom of each pepper, fill pepper with meat mixture and top with a second slice of cheese then Bake in oven for 25 minutes!

Portabella Pizzas

By Leave a Comment

Portabella Pizzas

To be honest…I do not love pizza. I really don’t even like it. – at all – What I do love? PIZZA TOPPINGS! You know how kids usually leave the crust? Well that’s me. Except I leave the whole slice of pizza, minus the toppings.

Now… I know what you’re thinking. “Who the heck doesn’t love a good slice of pizza?” Let’s just settle this now & I’ll send myself to the corner.  Buying pizza and just eating the toppings, what a waste!

So… low and behold: my new best friend. PIZZA TOPPING PIZZAS!

Pin HERE for later!

Ingredients:

  • Portabella mushroom caps
  • Low carb marinara sauce
  • Mozzarella cheese (I use fresh and cut thick slices)
  • Pizza toppings of choice (for these I just did fresh tomato, but I use mini pepperonis, too)
  • Olive oil

Steps:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  2. Using a spoon, remove the ‘fins’ inside the mushroom caps
  3. Rub the mushroom caps in olive oil and place top down on a nonstick cookie sheet
  4. Fill mushroom caps with marinara and pizza toppings of choice
  5. Roast in oven for 20 minutes

Here is the sauce I use: It’s tasty & negative net carb! WI fans – I get this at Woodman’s

  • Bell Peppers, seeded & cut into quarters (or sweet peppers cut in half)

Keto Broccoli Salad

By Leave a Comment

Keto Broccoli Salad

Let me be clear when I say this one thing…I do NOT love broccoli. It’s a love-hate relationship. This salad…HAS CHANGED MY MIND.

First, I am a firm believer in: food should be colorful. & THAT is this salad!

The broccoli is tender, the dressing is creamy. Savory bacon & crunchy sunflower seeds. Plus cheese! If you don’t LOVE cheese, we can’t be friends.

Pin This Recipe: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/420101471488878426

Ingredients:

  • 2 c. Broccoli, chopped
  • 1/4 c. Red Onion
  • 1/4 c. Finely Shredded Cheddar
  • 1/4 c. Bacon Bits
  • 1/4 c. Sunflower Seeds
  • 1/3 c. Mayo
  • 2 tbsp. White Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. Swerve Sweetener (I used confectioners because it;s what I had on hand, but you could use granular!)
  • Seasonings to taste (I used black pepper, garlic powder and cayenne)

(See… I told you! Colorful is better.)

Steps:

  1. Mix together mayo, vinegar, swerve and seasonings
  2. Put broccoli, onion, cheese, bacon bits, sunflower seeds and dressing into a bowl, mix together
  3. Refrigerate at least one hour then serve!

 

Parmesan Chicken Tenders

By Leave a Comment

Parmesan Chicken Tenders

Chicken tenders are my favorite!

When I’m sick, what do I want? Chicken tenders. Got my wisdom teeth out, the first thing I eat? Chicken tenders. You get the point, right? Chicken tenders = <3

Now that I’ve started keto it killed my chicken tender vibe.  I had to come up with a way to bring them back into my life. So here we are — an absolutely delicious, low carb way to have them anytime I want!

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. Chicken Tenders, fresh or frozen (thawed)
  • 1/2 c. Mayo (I use Primal Kitchen – Avocado Oil Mayo)
  • 1/4 c. Parmesan Cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 c. Almond Flour
  • Seasonings to taste (I used black pepper, garlic powder, pink Himalayan salt and cayenne)

Steps:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  2. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel, then season
  3. Combine Parmesan and almond flour, mix well
  4. Coat chicken in a thin layer of mayo. (Now I know what you’re thinking… WHAT?! But hear me out. This acts like the egg when frying chicken; if you think about it, mayo is just eggs and oil. It also makes the chicken tender and keeps it juicy! Tip: This part gets just a little messy, I highly suggest using gloves – NO MESS!
  5. Once chicken is coated, dredge in the almond-parmesan mix
  6. Bake on a nonstick cookie sheet at 400 for 15-20 minutes
  7. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce

Anyone that knows me, knows these two things: My first love is chicken tenders & my second is HOT SAUCE! (bonus: most hot sauces have no carbs)  

I also love all things nitfy. When I saw this “Hot Stuff” sauce cup at Hobby Lobby. I HAD TO HAVE IT! – it completes me –

Keto Friendly – Low Carb Shepherd’s Pie

By Leave a Comment

Low Carb Shepherd’s Pie

I was skeptical on this… cauliflower and I don’t exactly have the best track record LOL.  All-in-all though, this turned out pretty tasty!

Traditional shepherd’s pie generally has potatoes, corn, carrots and peas. In order to make this a low carb alternative, we had to get a bit creative. I used cauliflower in place of the potatoes then used onions and mushrooms with the beef. You could add zucchini, eggplant or even tomatoes if you wanted!

(No judging my overflowing ‘half’ cup of cheese. Is there even such a thing as ‘too much’ cheese?)

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag of Steamable Cauliflower
  • 2 oz. Cream Cheese
  • 2 tbsp. Butter
  • 2 tbsp. Heavy Cream
  • 1 lb. Ground Beef
  • 4 oz. Mushrooms
  • 1/2 c. Onion, chopped
  • 1/2 c. Cheese

Steps:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  2. Steam cauliflower per the directions on the package. Once cooked, combine cauliflower, cream cheese, heavy cream and butter – I cheated and used my Ninja blender, SUPER convenient!
  3. Cook ground beef with onions and mushrooms (or which ever veggies you so choose)
  4. Pour the ground beef-veggie mixture into an 8×8 baking dish and top with the cauliflower mash
  5. Sprinkle with cheese and bake for 20-30 minutes, until cheese is melting & bubbly

Tip: I suggest sprinkling bacon bits on top because… Well… Who doesn’t LOVE Bacon?!
