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…

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…
Thai Green Curry Chicken
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…
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…

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…
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…
Fathead Sausage Rolls
My original idea for these I was thinking of using turkey mince, just for something different, but in the end I opted for tradition and higher fat and went with actual sausage meat. They are sausage rolls after all! You can use different meat if you don’t eat pork or prefer to avoid sausages. You…
Fathead Pizza Burger
I had heard of pizza burgers and thought it sounded like a great low carb food. The only real problem with burgers are the buns, so these use my Fathead Burger Buns to cut out the grains. The burger is a beef patty with pizza toppings and really does have a pizza taste to it!…
