Can someone suggest an alternative ingredient for the pasta in this recipe? Otherwise the ingredients appear to be keto.

Keto drinks cream based?

Can you make a tasty drink only using cacao powder/vanilla/cinnamon and cream with hot water?

I dont want to use any sweeteners and dont like the other drinks like tea, coffee etc. Dont like their taste and they also drain B vitamins and make me tired.

Matcha

Hi, please help. I’m doing IF and trying to stay in ketosis till I break my fast at 1pm. I’m looking for a keto recipe for matcha. Presently I’m starting my day with a bulletproof coffee (collagen and mct oil) however the coffee combined with my ADHD med is too stimulating. Any ideas will be most appreciated.

Keto Almond Flour English Muffins.

Almond Flour English Muffins.

I was struggling to find a good keto bun / English Muffin or Pizza Base.

So being a chef I played around with various ingredients and made this super simple recipe.

Each portion contains approximately 213 calories and 1 gram of net carbs per muffin / bun.

Ingredients:

  1. Almond Flour: 600g
  2. Psyllium Husk: 300g
  3. Salt: 20g
  4. Baking Powder: 25g
  5. Water: 1425g

Bloom the psyllium husk in the water. It will form a gel. Mix all dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Then mix in the water psyllium gel. Mix well for 4 to 5 minutes.

Portion out into 120 to 140 gram balls then press out and form into English muffin style pucks.

Bake at 375f for 45 to 60 minutes turning once.

This can also be used as a pizza dough base.

What would you do with chicken quarters that have been soaking in buttermilk, pickle juice, and frank's buffalo sauce all night?

The grocery store had bone-in, skin-on chicken quarters (legs attached to thighs) for $2/lbs, which is pretty rad for my part of America's top hat.

I bought a lot.

So I've got twelve quarters in my fridge right now, that have been soaking in a nice little marinade of buttermilk, pickle juice, and Frank's red hot buffalo sauce.

I kind of want to do fried chicken, but I can't do a pork rind breading because, well, I don't have any pork rinds.

So if you were me, pork rindless, with a big 'ol bunch of chicken, how would you prep them?

Full disclosure, it doesn't have to be fried, I'm good for anything. I have a smoker, a propane grill, a blackstone, a stove/oven, an air fryer, a microwave, a wife, an infrared steak cooker thing, and a fire pit. A fireplace too, I guess, but I have yet to cook on it.

what to do with leftover egg yolks?

So I've been looking at recipes for keto breads and most of them seem to list egg whites as ingredients - sometimes it's 6 or 8 egg whites.

What can you make from the leftover egg yolks?

I've been searching and most of the stuff that came up are waffles and crepes and the likes. Can you suggest something else? If I'm having bread, I don't want to eat "pastries" on the same day.

Thank you.

Cottage Prepared Meals

Hey y'all! Timing for me couldn't be worse for starting keto a week before heading up to the in-laws cottage.

I'm looking for advice on how I can stay in keto, and also have good food to eat! Basically we all take turns cooking a meal for the family, and it would be very rude of me to take over the kitchen to cook my own food on a day that is not mine. (I'm already stressed about the judgements I'm going to get.) I'm thinking that I can bring pre-cooked food that I can heat up in the microwave for my meals, sort of like meal planning. However I don't want to take up to whole fridge either!

Any advice on meal planning ideas? Preferably with lots of veg, and minimal dairy. Avoiding beef and bacon.

New to keto, seeking advice from experienced people

Hi everyone. I’m 34yr old male. I’m 5’9” and currently weigh 180. I use to be over 200lbs and worked out a lot and ate a lot. I was a big buff guy.
I stopped working out due to increased work load and lost a bit of weight. I actually like feeling smaller. I’m more nimble and not out of breathe as much when doing activities. Currently my body fat is at 20%. I would greatly like to fine tune this and lose even more weight, mostly in the sense of fat. I’ve done some research and the keto diet interests me very much and I would greatly like to give it a shot.
I have a lot of experience counting calories and macros however I’ve never been a big veggie eater.

So my question is, how many meals a day should I eat on keto and how do I go about measuring exactly how many veggies I need in order to reach my 25-50g carb goal for the day? It seems nearly impossible to weigh each leaf of spinach and each stock of celery each time. And even if I did how do I know exactly how many carbs I am eating? It’s so easy to count carbs when you eat rice and bread all day but veggies seem much more difficult. I want to make sure I’m getting my proper macros in. I’m aiming for 170g protein, 160g fat and 25-50g carb, carbs depending on my activities for the day. Does anyone have an easier way of measuring the carbs from veggies? Does anyone have some meal plans for a male relative to my size? I wouldn’t even mind paying someone to help me out a little bit but online it just seems like so many scams and I don’t feel comfortable signing up for a keto subscription just to get some mediocre feedback.
Thanks for reading my post and any experienced advice is greatly appreciated!

Question about One-Pot Keto by Smythe

My wife just got it out of the library for me. I'm looking at the recipes and the carb count that is posted for each recipe. Does anyone know if this is the carb count for the entire pot, or just one serving?

Keto cheesecake crust

Help help please! First time making a keto cheesecake . I am making the crust with almond flour. I am not baking my cheescake but baking the crust. How long should I bake the crust for ? Should it come out firm? I baked it for 15 mins 170 degrees and it is still soft . Do I put it in the oven again?

How can I make sure that the filling will stick to the crust ? I don't want to bake the filling .

Keto Sloppy Joes

I made this recipe for my extended family at a family reunion a few months ago. I'm still getting requests for the recipe.

Keto Sloppy Joe's

2lbs ground beef (or turkey) cooked and drained 1 lg onion chopped fine 2 small cans of tomato paste 1-2 tbsp spicy mustard 1/3 - 1/2 cup of brown Lakanto (or sweetener of choice plus 1 tbsp black strap molasses) 2 cups of riced cauliflower 1/2 tbsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 tbsp of garlic powder 1 tsp cayenne or cajun seasoning 1 32 Oz bone broth

Combine everything and simmer until it thickens. If you taste and it needs 'something', the answer is always garlic or salt.

How to boil eggs that peel easily - one of the ways

There are many methods out there for how to boil eggs that peel easily, but I have noticed that some folks who post on here are just learning to cook, so I hope this is helpful. It's how I do it and the eggs peel perfectly every time. Supplies needed: pot for boiling, salt, slotted spoon, eggs, water.

  1. Bring salted water to a boil on high temp.
  2. Put eggs in a slotted spoon and slowly lower them into the boiling water. It's best if they are snug in the pot so they don't bounce around too much.
  3. Lower the temp to low-medium and simmer for about 12-15 minutes. The water should be gently boiling.
  4. Drain the hot water and cover the eggs with ice cubes. Fill the pot with cold water.
  5. Let cool completely (about 20 minutes).
