Low-carb Vegetables
Steak, Peppers, Blueberries and Diet Soda
This steak was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! I added some orange peppers, blueberries for dessert and a mini diet soda. Is diet soda healthy? No, but this way of eating is not about purifying your diet or avoiding every fun food and beverage; it’s about low carb!
Read MoreBacon and Eggs
Simple works really well on a low-carb or keto diet. Here we have scrambled eggs cooked in butter (don’t over-cook, they should be a little moist, not dry!), air-fried bacon purses (i.e., folded bacon strips) and red pepper slices. Incredibly good, so simple, so easy! And it only takes a few minutes to make! No…
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 MoreGoat Meat Hash with a Fried Egg, Red Peppers and Dill Pickles
This meal contains half the amount of hash as yesterday’s meal because I wasn’t overly hungry, but I did want something fresh and a bit tangy, so I added the fresh red peppers and dill pickles. I also added an egg to increase the protein and add some creaminess to the hash (I ate the…
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.

An easy stir-fried dish using cooked, peeled and deveined prawns, konjac noodles, broccoli, red peppers, red onion, garlic and Asian seasonings.
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.
