Low-carb and Keto Dessert or Snack
Separately, or eaten together, a few raspberries and a couple of squares of dark chocolate make a nice low-carb/keto dessert or snack.
Read MoreTuna, Salami, Konjac Noodles, Alfredo Sauce
A very simple, easy low-carb meal! One can of Rio Mare tuna (drained), konjac noodles (one serving; be careful with konjac noodles as they can cause intestinal issues if you eat too much at once!), diced salami (I was just trying to use this up, so it’s optional), minced green onions, cherry tomatoes, 1/2 pkg…
Read MoreMarinated Chicken Thighs with Romaine Salad
These delicious chicken thighs were marinated overnight in sheep’s yogurt (Greek yogurt works great), red onions and Indian spices. Then they were packed in a cake pan and baked for about an hour at 450F. I made enough for three meals. Note: Mine were bone-in and had their skins on whereas the original recipe uses…
Read MoreScrambled Eggs, Bacon, Roasted Veggies and Tomatoes
This is a filling meal for those days when you are hungry, but need something simple to prepare. The root veggies and potatoes only took 15 minutes in the air fryer. The bacon was pre-cooked and heated for 30 seconds in the microwave. I scrambled the eggs and cut up a few cherry tomatoes while…
Read MoreSimple Meal or Filling Snack
Sometimes you’re just not very hungry or sometimes you’re hungry even though you’ve had your one-meal-a-day! Either way, a small meal or a substantive snack is quite all right! This is one of my favourites: Kirkland cheese and bacon egg bites from Costco and a few baby tomatoes with salt and pepper. Lots of flavour,…
Read MoreCheese and Ham Omelette with Avocado
Such a delicious, simple low-carb meal! A three-egg omelette with diced onions, diced ham and goat cheese crumbles. I had a whole avocado on the side today! The secret to a good omelette is to cook it low and slow. It will be moist and creamy! So good! I also put my dessert on the…
Read MoreCurried Ground Lamb and Veggies
I love lamb! This ground lamb was sauteed with onions, mushrooms, canned diced tomatoes, frozen Asian cauliflower rice and spices for an Indian flavour. I served it with buttered Brussels sprouts and parsnip fries. Not super low-carb, but I do fine with some carbs on maintenance.
Read MoreMeat Sauce and Brussels Sprouts
I often make a sauce with ground meat and veggies. This one is lamb, Italian-seasoned sausage meat, cauliflower rice, diced canned tomatoes, spinach, onion and seasonings. I also steamed some Brussels sprouts, which I absolutely love, and slathered them with butter.
Read MoreTofu Greek Salad
I have to avoid eating a lot of dairy, so this Greek salad uses marinated tofu instead of feta cheese. Note: For some really good fat, I added an entire diced avocado after this photo was taken.
Read MoreChicken Thighs, Spinach and Sweet Potato
Worried about being hungry on a low-carb diet? It’s very unlikely unless you are deliberately restricting calories. Here’s one example of a low-carb meal that is very filling. Even without the small piece of sweet potato, this is a lot of food. I couldn’t even eat all three chicken thighs, so I have one for…
