I have always loved gozleme in all its forms and it was a food I bought frequently before going low carb and still one I missed a fair bit. I used to think that it was just that dough, if I could get around the dough somehow then I could make it. Then realised that…

Fathead Cinnamon Scrolls
My whole life I have LOVED cinnamon scrolls! I love the taste of the cinnamon swirl inside, there’s just something about it that tastes fantastic to me. Growing up, my grandmother usually made ‘Folar’ which is a Portuguese sweet Easter bread with cinnamon swirl through it. I remember trying to eat around the cinnamon parts…
Curried Konjac Noodles with Seafood
This is similar to a fried rice really, except with noodles and using mainly prawns and fish for protein. This is a really simple yet tasty stir fry, packed with vegetables and using konjac noodles. If you’re not a fan of konjac noodles, you can always sub zoodles instead but the carb count will be…
Homemade Ginger Paste
Although I usually don’t mind prepping ginger from scratch, the convenient tubes of ginger paste were another item I bought frequently and which I later found out were full of nasty added ingredients. This Ginger Paste gives you all the convenience without the sugar, starches and seed oils added in. Because it’s stored in the…
Fathead Salmon Burger
I’ve made a couple of Fathead Burgers now but I wanted to make one using fish since my mum is a pescatarian (vegetarian that also eats seafood). Of course there was no question that the fish should be salmon, particularly as I wanted to mainly rely on the flavour of the fish alone without crumbing…
Dukkah Crusted Fish
This fish is really nice and simple and uses my Dukkah recipe as a coating. This fish has a really lovely taste cooked in the butter. Serve with your favourite side or a salad would complement this fish well. Dukkah Crusted Fish – Serves 4 ½ quanitity of Dukkah, get the recipe here…
Dukkah
A dukkah that is totally compliant! Dukkah is traditionally used for dipping bread in, first in olive oil, then in the dukkah. You can use it the same way for dipping things like vegetables instead or as a crumb for coating food before cooking. Try my Dukkah Crusted Fish to start you off! Dukkah…
Creamy Mustard Chicken with Cauliflower Mash
For this recipe I was trying to replicate the classic honey mustard chicken I used to love. Normally I haven’t even used sweeteners in cooking other than desserts, but have started playing around with different kinds of the drops and found that stevia glycerite makes a great stand in for honey. If you used to…
Cauliflower Mash
One of the most well-known and easiest low carb sides, Cauliflower Mash is a recipe every low carber needs to know. In place of mashed potatoes, it can become a very much used side dish to accompany all different proteins. It also has a good amount of butter to keep you full and satisfied. One…
Moroccan Seasoning
Love great spice blends like Moroccan seasoning? If you’re like me, you probably didn’t think to read the back of those jars at first, or maybe still haven’t. I was shocked to find they contained added sugar, starches and seed oils! Making your own spice blends can be fun and you know exactly what’s in…
