Low Carb or Keto
Scrambled 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 MoreAsian Cauliflower Rice with Goat Meat, Eggs and Green Onions
Today I made fried “rice” using frozen “Asian Cauliflower Rice,” goat meat (pre-cooked and seasoned), scrambled eggs and green onions. I also added garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil. Note that the peas and corn will raise the carb level more than some people may want. If so, you can simply use plain cauliflower rice.
Read MoreChicken Thighs, Salad and Brussels Sprouts
Low-carb is such an easy “diet”! I simply air-fried three pre-seasoned chicken breasts, then added some bagged salad and leftover Brussels sprouts. It doesn’t have to be complicated!
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 MoreSausages, Sweet & Sour Red Cabbage, Sweet Potato
This was a really tasty, filling meal. English Banger Sausages (Save-on-Foods, Vancouver area), sweet and sour red cabbage (use 1/3 c. allulose instead of the sugar) and a small piece of sweet potato.
Read MoreShredded Chicken Salad
A big salad is such a versatile low-carb meal! This winter salad has Romaine lettuce, seasoned shredded chicken breast, a small amount of sweet potato, tomatoes, red peppers, red onion, salsa mayo, Aleppo pepper flakes and salt. I warmed up the chicken and sweet potato in the microwave.
Read MoreSteak, Roasted Veggies, Tomatoes
A lovely steak that was on sale at Safeway. I paired it with roasted cauliflower and rutabaga (swede) and a few baby tomatoes. Simple and easy! I used the air fryer for the roasted veggies and the steak (not at the same time).
