Fennel is one of those vegetables that I never really grew up eating or experimented with. In fact, I really hadn’t tried it at all until I started keto. Once I tried it though, I was really in love. It’s one of those vegetables, like many, that tastes really different cooked than raw, so you…

Thai Red Curry Crackslaw – Cabbage Stir Fry | Low Carb Nikki | Keto | LCHF
This recipe for Thai Red Curry Crackslaw or Cabbage Stir Fry is a real throw together and very different from my other Asian style crackslaw recipe. This Thai Red Curry Crackslaw is much easier to make, has fewer ingredients and takes less time. I wanted something quick and easy to once again use up a…
Creamy Mushroom Meatballs with Fried Cabbage | Low Carb Nikki | Keto | LCHF
I came up with this recipe literally just because I was thinking of something new to make with the massive amount of beef mince/ground beef I had sitting in the freezer. I really love how sometimes being a little low on money and having to utilise what you have on hand, really gives you great…
Avocado Bowls with Poached Egg | Low Carb Nikki | Keto | LCHF | Low Carb
If you’ve never tried avocado with eggs, you’re in for a treat! I used to always hate avocado, to me it just tasted like eating butter (another thing I didn’t like much except for in cooking). But it’s so nutritious and so widely used and favoured that I started introducing myself to it, first in…
Cheese Layered Lasagne | Low Carb Nikki | Keto | LCHF | Low Carb
Over the years I have tried LOTS of keto lasagne recipes. Lasagne used to be a favourite dish I’d make often. I’d do a classic beef one and a vegetarian one with lentils which I loved and which my mother could enjoy as she doesn’t eat meat. Often we’d have a ‘lasagne night’ and I’d…
Crunchy Chicken and Cauliflower Rice Salad | Low Carb Nikki | Keto | LCHF | Low Carb
With the heat returning, cold and fresh dishes are an absolute must, as well as dishes that are quick and easy to prepare, so you’re not slaving over a hot stove for ages or heating up your house with the oven. In Australia, salads are also incredibly popular at Christmas, especially as there is always…
Keto Spanish Omelette | Low Carb | LCHF
If you’re unfamiliar with a Spanish Omelette, it’s a classic dish that seems very simple given the small amount of ingredients, but can be tricky sometimes to cook. My mum used to make a version of this very often when I was a kid, since eggs are so cheap and it makes for a really…
Portuguese Style Baked Fish – Peixe Assado | Keto | Low Carb | LCHF
This recipe is one that I used to make repeatedly since I was a teenager, but that I had forgotten all about for many years. It uses few ingredients and is one of the simplest and easiest recipes I’ve made, but has great flavour! Opening the oven to the smell of this Portuguese Style Baked…
Mi Goreng | Low Carb | Gluten Free | LCHF | Keto
This recipe is adapted from my cookbook ‘Fresh Fragrant Keto’ and is even better than the original recipe in my opinion. The original recipe in the book uses konjac noodles and chicken, but I was turned on to making it with the Slendier soy spaghetti by a very talented food stylist, Ali Irvine of Ali…
Stuffed Mini Peppers | Keto | Low Carb | LCHF
I’ve been wanting to try a recipe like these Stuffed Mini Peppers for ages! I grew up with capsicums/peppers that were always stuffed with a meat and rice mix and for some reason I always hated them. I wanted to use something different and I loved the idea of using mini peppers/baby capsicums because I…
