My best friend happens to be half Thai and has a mother who is an incredible cook! Her mum taught her the recipes for Thai red and green curry and when we were first living out of home and sharing a place as young teens, my friend used to make them all the time and…
Homemade Thai Green Curry Paste
This is my Homemade Thai Green Curry Paste, made from compliant ingredients and free of sugar and seed oils. It tastes quite different to store bought and much spicier. I always use the Maesri brand of curry pastes and have always been happy with them, but wanted to try making my own Homemade Thai Green…
Cauliflower Rice
Cauliflower Rice is another great low carb staple and an ideal stand in for regular rice. When I first started out I really missed rice with things like curries and stir fries. It wasn’t so much the taste, it was having something to soak up that sauce the way regular rice used to do. Cauliflower…
Strawberry Ice Cream
This is one of the best ice cream flavours I’ve made so far. A lovely light and fresh strawberry taste that isn’t too sweet, this Keto Strawberry Ice Cream is natural and sugar free! At first I toyed with the notion of using the sugar free strawberry drinking mix powder I’d bought since I hadn’t…
Creamy Crack Chicken ‘Pasta’
I first heard about Crack Chicken in one of my groups and thought it sounded really delicious and gave it a try. It’s basically chicken, cream cheese and ranch seasoning thrown into the slow cooker. It was nice but quite dry and I felt it was lacking a little bit. So I threw this recipe…
Fathead Ham and Cheese Toasties
Still have your sandwich press lying around? Wondering what you can do with it now that you’ve gone low carb? Well don’t get rid of it just yet, here’s one recipe you can still use it for! Fathead Ham and Cheese Toasties are like a classic ham and cheese toasted sandwich, except with Fathead as…
Fathead Empanadas
Fathead Empanadas, Mexican flavours encased and held by the famous Fathead dough. Fathead Empanadas are simple, quick and easy. These Fathead Empanadas are great for work lunches, school lunchboxes, parties, picnics, you name it! They make a pretty large amount so also good for storing in the freezer. I have a big container of Fathead…
Tex-Mex Seasoning
A Tex-Mex seasoning that has all the flavour without the sugar, starches and seed oils. That’s right, store bought seasoning blends like Tex-Mex seasoning usually contain all three of these! I was shocked when I found out myself and read the back of every seasoning blend I owned to find not a single one that…
Fathead Cornish Pasties
What are Cornish pasties? They’re like little semi-circle portable pies. But of course, pies have pastry, the pie gravy is made with flour or other starches and they often contain high carb vegetables like potato. These are completely grain-free and use turnips or swede, which replaces the potatoes wonderfully. The pie gravy is based off…
Doing Low Carb On A Budget
This is an issue I see coming up again and again, people saying they are spending a fortune on food and how does everyone afford to do low carb? Now usually the answer given boils down to ‘No, it’s not more expensive.’ But that is definitely not always the case. When I first started low…
