Keto soup is a great addition to your weekly meal rotation. In order to create the best Keto soups, it is best to combine low carb veggies with a source of Keto friendly fats.

The beef and onion are browned in the instant pot, then pressure cooked in stock for just 8 minutes until the beef is perfectly tender.

These deliciously warming Keto Christmas cookies are soft and cakey, combining the texture and flavors of both gingerbread and cookies. This Keto Christmas recipe makes a great sweet snack for the holidays or can be enjoyed as a post-dinner treat. Perfect for kids and grown-ups! Ground almonds offer a heavier crumb texture and slightly fewer carbs than finer almond flour. You may use almond flour if you prefer. This will change the texture a little but will still be delicious. Adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe. These Keto cookies are seasoned with warming gingerbread spices. Adjust the quantity of spices to suit your personal taste or incorporate additional festive flavors. Dried cranberries, orange zest, and chopped low carb nuts would all make excellent add-ins.
These vibrant green beans are par-cooked to achieve a tender consistency, then expertly sautéed with crispy bacon, a hint of zesty lemon, fragrant thyme, and savory garlic. This dish is an excellent accompaniment to roasted chicken or pork, adding a burst of flavor and texture to your meal.
Don’t you miss Chinese takeout dishes that are saucy, sticky, and delicious? This Keto Chinese broccoli dish is just that and more. Prepared with garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and soy sauce, this dish is umami, fragrant, nutty, and absolutely delicious. You can serve it alongside other Keto Chinese food or as a healthy plant-based lunch. No, you don’t need to pre-boil it. You need the broccoli to be dry when stir-frying it to caramelize. Once the sauce mixture is added, the broccoli will cook further. Don’t simmer it in the sauce for too long to prevent overcooking. We don’t recommend using frozen broccoli because it has a high water content that will prevent it from caramelizing when sauteed. Frozen broccoli is also more likely to overcook and become mushy. If you’d like to keep this saucy broccoli dish vegan, then you can serve it over zoodles, cauliflower rice, or shirataki noodles. If you don’t mind the meat, then you can serve it over chicken, beef, or shrimp. You can also serve it as a side among other Keto-friendly Chinese food. Unfortunately, you cannot. The xanthan gum is what thickens the sauce and gives it that stickiness associated with many Chinese dishes. Without it, the broccoli would be swimming in a thin sauce. Start with ½ teaspoon of xanthan gum; if the sauce isn’t as thick as you like after it simmers, then add another ¼ or ½ teaspoon.
This deliciously sweet caramel sauce has just a hint of salt and a rich, creamy texture from almond butter and almond milk. It's perfect for serving with your favorite low-carb cakes and desserts or simply dipping in strawberries!
This homemade instant pudding mixes up quickly and easily! It's paleo, vegan, dairy-free, and nut-free. Whisk the xanthan gum in with the dry ingredients to ensure a lump-free pudding.

If you find yourself hungry on the Keto diet, look no further than this super-filling stir fry and bacon meal. Vegetarians beware - this recipe is not for you! Swai catfish fillets are rubbed down with an Asian-inspired curry seasoning blend that ’s just a little bit spicy. After they marinate in the dry rub, the fish is blackened on your stovetop. You serve your blackened fish with stir-fried bok choy, mushrooms, and nuts over a bed of buttery cauliflower rice made with green onions. The final touch is a small serving of chili bacon chips, which are cooked to a crisp in your oven. The bacon chips are coated in a lime-flavored Tajin seasoning, which makes for a salivating side dish. You may find this recipe especially appealing for Keto meal prepping. In which case, you can keep portioned meals together in meal prep containers for up to 5 days in your refrigerator. A microwave is all you need to reheat the dish. The best type of bacon you can use is smoked bacon that comes on a slab. This makes it easier to slice bacon to just the right thickness to mimic chips when they bake. However, you can make this recipe with pre-packaged bacon. It ’s recommended you use thick-sliced bacon. If you use pre-packaged bacon, just expect a lot of shrinking in the oven. You can use either thawed cauliflower rice from frozen or raw cauliflower you ’ve riced yourself for this recipe. If you choose frozen cauliflower rice, make sure it ’s fully thawed before cooking with it, and drain any excess water out of the packaging. If you use fresh riced cauliflower, you may experience your rice cooking very quickly, so just keep your eyes on your rice to avoid burning. Both types of cauliflower rice should cook to the same consistency and weight. Jessica L.
