Ok, I'm going to admit this now ... I had no idea how high in calories ribs were until I've just come to work out the recipe! These were so yummy my friend and I polished off a whole rack between us which I think would've worked out approx 600 calories each, as it happens … Continue reading Low Carb Pork Ribs
For someone who had become so lazy with food I am finding huge delight in cooking so many wonderful things. There have been so many times where I've simply not bothered because I was too tired or thought it would take forever and that's just not the case. Who knew that decent food could be … Continue reading Garlic Cabbage with Bacon
I've made it my mission to spread the Keto love and try to persuade friends of mine who are looking to lose a few lbs to jump on the low carb high fat wagon.

You can use whichever … Continue reading Low Carb Fish Pie

OK so they may not have a shiny shell, they certainly don’t have ‘feet’ and they aren’t full of sugar BUT these little mouthfuls of delight are still macarons-ish! I’ve decided I’m still allowed to call them that seeing as the technique of macronage is still used even though the sugar is not! Meringue is … Continue reading Low Carb Macarons
With Christmas fast appaching I thought I’d better knuckle down and try to think of a few things that would look fabulous on the Christmas dinner table. What better way to start than with a bright green centrepiece like this roulade! The sponge is a light egg mousse almost but it doesn’t give the eggy … Continue reading Keto Spinach and Salmon Roulade
Three ingredients, one bowl, one blender .... et voila! I used to think making pate was insanely hard but this was far from it, and tastes glorious.

I’ve had a few ‘not so low carb’ blips over the past few weeks and the biggest reason was a strange craving for scotch eggs ... I say strange because they’ve never been particularly important to me! So, with a little time to spare I set about trying to make some, keto style! The first … Continue reading Low Carb and Gluten Free Scotch Eggs
