Add the remaining ingredients, stir well. Cook on low for 6-8 hours

How To Make Keto Chili In The Instant Pot

Add the remaining ingredients plus add 2/3 cup of water, then cover and lock the lid. Make sure the steam valve is closed. Select Bean/Chili setting (30 mins). Allow the pressure to release naturally or use the quick release. Stir chili before serving!

Is Chili Keto?

Normally, no. Most chili recipes contain beans. This brings the carb count too high to be considered low carb or keto-friendly. This recipe for low carb, keto chili requires no beans or tricky ingredients that are hard to find.

What if I’m not on Keto?

If you’re not living a low carb lifestyle, you can feel free to add some heartiness to this recipe by adding some canned beans. Feel free to use either pinto beans or kidney beans. Either way, it turns out delicious. Just make sure you are using canned beans and not dry beans.

Can I add anything else to low carb chili?

Aside from the low carb toppings mentioned below, you can also add additional vegetables to keto chili if you’d like. More veggies means more fiber, which will make this chili more filling. Things like zucchini, mushrooms, and cauliflower can be sautéed with the onion and pepper.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

This is the Best Keto Chili Recipe because it’s loaded with 3 kinds of delicious meat. Usings 3 types of meat not only means tons of protein but it also adds so much more flavour to the chili. You really don’t miss the beans!!! The recipe requires minimal effort and only uses simple and easy to find ingredients like ground beef, sausage and canned tomatoes.  The low carb chili is also naturally high in protein and is paleo as well as gluten and dairy free.

Looking for some more delicious Keto Recipes? You’re in luck! I have some of my readers favourite recipes to share. Their number one favourite are these Keto Bacon Dill Pickle Fat Bombs. Everyone loves how quick and easy they are to make. Another one of Their favourites, are these tasty Keto Jalapeño Popper Taquitos. They’re perfect for impressing party guests or for spoiling someone special.

Recipe Notes:

– This chili recipe is thick and hearty. If you prefer a chili that is not quite as thick, simply add a little water until it reaches the desired thickness.

– To thicken keto chili, you can bring it to a boil, turn down the heat, and simmer it with the lid off. As it simmers, the liquid begins to evaporate, which thickens the chili. Make sure you stir it occasionally.

– Store bought chili seasoning can be used for this recipe if preferred. Just swap out the spices for chili sesaoning. (make sure it’s gluten free) Taco seasoning also works well if needed.

– You can skip the sausage in this recipe and use just ground beef or ground turkey if desired. You can also use regular sausage if you don’t like it spicy.

– Add a little water before reheating this chili. If you like it thick just add a small amount. If you like it runny… add a bit more.

Mediterranean Broccoli Salad

June 22, 2022 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

This Mediterranean Broccoli Salad is quick and refreshing! It features four simple key ingredients: broccoli, cucumbers, purple cabbage and parsley. The summery salad is tossed in a light lemony dressing and topped with feta cheese!

Mediterranean Broccoli Salad

Ingredients you’ll need

To make this deliciously summery broccoli salad, you’ll need broccoli, cucumbers, purple cabbage (which has a lot less carbs than red onion), fresh garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano and salt.

What else can I add to this?

This basic Mediterranean salad has several variations and you can change it up to your liking. Here are a few ideas:

  • Add chopped onions such as red onions, shallots, or green onions.
  • Use more fresh herbs! In addition to parsley, you can add some chopped fresh mint leaves or dill.
  • Toss in some tomato, I do sometimes add small pieces of tomatoes.
  • Olives are a great addition to this Mediterranean style salad. They also make a great garnish.
  • Add crispy crumbled bacon to the top of the salad.

Mediterranean Broccoli Salad Ingredients

How to make a Mediterranean Broccoli Salad

  1. Chop the vegetables and herbs. I like this recipe best with the raw broccoli chopped into bite size pieces, the cucumbers unpeeled and minced into small pieces, the purple cabbage chopped small, and the garlic and parsley chopped finely.
  2. Dress the salad. This salad has a really simple dressing that can be made right over the vegetables. Sprinkle the ingredients with, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and lemon juice.
  3. Add in the cubes of feta cheese. While this does call for the feta cheese cubed, you could also use crumbled.
  4. Toss the salad to combine and enjoy.
Mediterranean Broccoli Salad

Storing Leftovers

This Mediterranean broccoli salad is best when eaten right after it is made. That being said, it will still be delicious as leftovers. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Is Mediterranean broccoli salad Keto friendly?

Yes, this broccoli salad is ok to eat on a keto diet. It’s keto, gluten free and low carb and is loaded with fiber. It’s also a very affordable keto option. It’s the perfect keto side dish for bbqs and picnics.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

Keto Mediterranean Broccoli Salad Recipe

This Keto Mediterranean Broccoli Salad Recipe requires minimal effort and only uses simple and easy to find ingredients like Broccoli, Purple Cabbage and Cucumber. The delicious Mediterranean salad  are also naturally high in fiber and is paleo and low carb as well as gluten free.

Since this broccoli salad is such a summery dish I like to serve it with an equally summery side dish like my Keto Chicken Kabobs or my Grilled Chicken Satay. They’re perfect for impressing guests or for spoiling someone special.

Mediterranean Broccoli Salad

Recipe Notes:

– The mayonnaise can be switched out for greek yogurt if preferred.

– You can use red onion in place of the purple cabbage. I like to use purple cabbage instead because it has considerably less of carbs than the red onion does. I also like the crunch that the cabbage adds.

– This salad recipe can be made with store bought greek dressing instead of using the lemon juice and olive oil.

Grilled Chicken Kabobs

June 8, 2022 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

These Grilled Chicken Kabobs are made with a flavourful homemade marinade and colourful vegetables that are grilled to perfection. The recipe is great as an appetizer when entertaining or a light dinner the whole family would enjoy. 

Grilled Chicken Kabobs with Vegetables

What are Grilled Chicken Kabobs?

Chicken kabobs are cubes of marinated chicken and colourful vegetables, skewered and grilled to perfection. The bold kabob marinade makes all the difference in giving you tender grilled kabobs that are packed with flavour!

What Ingredients do you need to make Grilled Chicken Kabobs?

For this recipe you’ll need boneless, skinless chicken breasts and vegetables. I like to use bell peppers, zucchini and onion. You’ll also need to make a marinade for the chicken. We made a sugar free and low carb marinade with garlic and onion powder, cumin, paprika, salt, lime juice and olive oil. You will also need metal or wooden skewers.

Grilled Chicken Kabobs with Vegetables Ingredients

Marinading The Chicken Kebabs

It’s important when you marinate chicken that you keep a few things in mind.

  • Chicken should marinate for 1/2 hour to 24 hours. For this recipe I’m recommending 1/2 hour, but you could definitely start the marinade the night before.
  • Do not marinate chicken for more than 24 hours. It will make the chicken gummy and unappetizing.

Finally, though we are only marinating the chicken, it will impact the flavour of the vegetables. The vegetables will pick up the flavour of the marinade on the grill and be delicious alongside the chicken.

How to Make Grilled Chicken Kebabs with Vegetables

Step 1: Make the Marinade
Step 2: Marinate the Chicken
Step 3: Assemble the Kebabs
Step 4: Grill the Kebabs
Grilled Chicken Kabobs

Substitutions for Chicken Kebabs

– Pieces of steak or pork can be substituted for chicken, but cook times will vary.

– Use any bell peppers in this recipe. Coloured peppers like red, orange and yellow are sweeter than green.

– Use white, sweet onions or purple onions.

– Add fresh mushrooms, cherry tomatoes or even fresh pineapple to these skewers.

Grilled Chicken Kabobs

Grilled Chicken Kabobs with Vegetables

 We love grilling shish kabobs for dinner because they are full of flavour, easy to make and fun to eat. Grilled kabobs have an advantage over other grilled chicken recipes: the bite-size pieces of chicken soak up extra flavour from the marinade so that every bite is intensely flavourful and satisfying. The delicious chicken kabobs are gluten, sugar and dairy free, low carb and keto, which makes them an awesome dish for feeding groups of people with diverse dietary needs.

Since these chicken skewers are such a summery dish I like to serve them with an equally summery side dish like my Loaded Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad or my Smashed Brussels Sprouts.  They’re perfect for impressing guests or for spoiling someone special.

Grilled Chicken Kabobs

Recipe Notes:

– If using wooden skewers, you’ll need to soak the skewers in water before using.

– These Chicken Shish Kabobs cook on the grill for around 14 to 18 minutes. It is important to remember that if you cut your chicken bigger it will need to cook longer.

– Cut the chicken and vegetables into even sizes so they cook evenly.

– To cook in the oven: Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place kabobs on the baking sheet and bake at 425° F for 24-30 minutes, turning them occasionally, until chicken is cooked to 165° F. I use kitchen tongs to turn the kabobs, as the skewers are hot.

Zucchini Noodles also known as “Zoodles”, are a delicious and healthy gluten-free pasta alternative made from zucchini! They’re the ultimate pasta alternative. Inexpensive, gluten-free, and low in carbs, zucchini noodles can satisfy a pasta craving without sacrificing nutrition. They’re also paleo, vegan and keto friendly. Spiraled zucchini is my favorite way to eat them but they can also be made with a mandoline or julienne peeler. Slice the zucchini into noodles so it looks like pasta.

How Do You Store Zucchini Noodles? 

You can keep the leftovers in the fridge, in an airtight container, for about 3 days. Reheat them gently, on the stove top or in the microwave.

Can You Freeze Keto Zoodles?

I don’t recommend freezing zucchini noodles. Their water content is so high that once they’re thawed and reheated, they end up mushy and kinda gross.

Zucchini Noodles with Peanut Sauce

What’s the best way to cook zucchini noodles?

The best way to cook Zucchini Noodles is to sauté them in oil or butter in a frying pan until tender. You can also Bake, boil or microwave them if preferred.

Should I Peel Zucchini before Spiralizing?

Don’t peel the zucchini before spiralizing. Once you peel the zucchini, the flesh is exposed and the moisture will start to seep out. This will give you a mushier noodle when you cook them. Instead, keep the skin on so that the noodles maintain their shape and all of the nutrients in the dark green skin.

What To Serve With Keto Zucchini Noodles and Thai Peanut Sauce

You can eat these delicious Zoodles all on their own or try adding some chicken or shrimp to the recipe. Check out my Keto Chicken with Peanut Sauce and my Keto Meatballs with Peanut Sauce. Both recipes would be a great addition to these yummy low carb noodles.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Keto Zoodles with Peanut Sauce

This recipe for Keto Zoodles with Peanut Sauce is really easy to make. The sauce can be whipped up in a few minutes. It’s so tasty, you’ll want to add it to your regular dinner rotation. It’s made with a Thai Peanut sauce that’s slightly spicy but is still mild enough for a 10 year old to eat. Spiralized zucchini noodles are easy to find at the store, but they’re so much better when freshly cut.

Our absolute fav are these Bacon Zucchini Fries I love that they’re so easy and quick to make. Another one of our favourites, is these tasty Keto Zucchini Skins. They’re perfect for impressing dinner guests or for spoiling someone special. Let us know how they turned out for you in the comments below!

Zucchini Noodles with Peanut Sauce

Recipe Notes:

– Make your zoodles ahead of time! This is the best time-saving tip. After you’ve spiralized several zucchini, line a large plastic or glass storage container with a paper towel, add your noodles and place in the refrigerator. They’ll stay fresh for 2-3 days.

– Larger zucchini are easier to spiralize and will yield more noodles. For serving sizes, plan on one medium zucchini per person.

– Placing your coconut milk in the fridge before using will help separate the cream from the liquid. Also opening the can upside down will make separating it easier.

-Using a Julienne Peeler: If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can easily make zoodles with this other common kitchen tool! Use your peeler to make long slices and then gently pull them apart until you have your desired noodle thickness.

They’re a family friendly vegetable side dish that’s best served with chicken, steak, pork chops, salads or fish.

Smashed Brussel Sprout Recipe with Parmesan Cheese

Why You’ll Love This Crispy Smashed Brussels Sprouts Recipe

These crispy brussel sprouts are made extra special because they’re smashed and roasted with parmesan cheese, butter, salt, and garlic. Each bite is a delicious little bomb of flavour! If you like smashed potatoes, you’ll love these smashed brussel sprouts!

Smashed Brussel Sprout Recipe with Parmesan Cheese

Ingredients You’ll Need

You only need 5 ingredients to make this recipe for smashed brussel sprouts. First you need 1 lb of brussel sprouts which can either be fresh or frozen. Then you’ll need 2 Tbsp of melted butter or olive oil if preferred.  To season the brussel sprouts you’ll need a Tsp of garlic puree and salt and pepper. I used a store bought garlic puree but you can swap it our for minced garlic or garlic powder. Lastly you’ll need parmesan cheese. This will help the brussel sprouts to get extra crispy.

Smashed Brussel Sprout Recipe with Parmesan Cheese

How Do You Make Smashed Brussel Sprouts?

To make these delicious Smashed Brussel Sprouts start by preheating your oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, then trim the bottoms off of the brussel sprouts. Next steam or boil them until they are fork tender (around 15 minutes). If you are using frozen brussel sprouts, cook them according to the package directions. Strain them, then set them aside in a colander and cool for a few minutes.

Toss the brussel sprouts with melted butter (or olive oil), garlic and salt, then spread them out onto your prepared baking dish. Use the bottom of a cup to smash them flat. Evenly spoon the grated parmesan cheese onto the top of the smashed brussel sprouts. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese turns a deep golden brown and the edges of the brussel sprouts are crispy.

Common Questions about making Smashed Brussels Sprouts

Why Do the Brussel Spouts need to be boiled?  They need to be boiled to soften them enough  to be smashed. I like to give them a quick boil first but you can also steam them on the stove or in the microwave, if that’s easiest for you.

Are larger or smaller Brussel Sprouts better for roasting? You can use either but smaller sprouts will get a bit crispier in the oven so that’s my personal preference. If you do have any giant sprouts you could halve them after boiling.

Can I use frozen Brussel Sprouts? Yes, you can use fresh or frozen brussel sprouts for this recipe. If using frozen, I generally use a 12 ounce package.

Are Smashed Brussels Sprouts Keto friendly? Yes they are keto friendly. 1/4 of the batch has 9 g of carbs but they are also high in fiber so that gives them 6 g net carbs in total. That makes them a great keto side dish, paired up with a steak or chicken breast. 

What kind of pan is best for this recipe? I like to use a rimmed baking sheet pan.

What temperature is best for roasted Brussel sprouts? Roasting Brussel sprouts needs to be done at high heat such as 425. Lower heat such as 350, will bake them and not roast them. High heat equals crisp edges.

Smashed Brussel Sprouts

Smashed Brussel Sprouts

Recipe Notes:

– You can use fresh or frozen brussel sprouts for this recipe. If using frozen, I generally use a 12 ounce package.

– This recipe uses garlic puree. I used a store bought garlic puree that comes in a jar but you can puree your own in a food processor or use a mortar and pestle to smash it up. You can also just swap it our for minced garlic or garlic powder if you want to.

– You can also use a potato masher or fork to gently smash each brussel sprout.

– The Parmesan Cheese can be swapped out for mozzarella cheese if preferred.

– Olive oil can be switched out for the butter if needed.

– To get the brussel sprouts extra flat and crispy, boil or steam them a little longer.

Creamy Lemon Parmesan Chicken

Recipe Notes:

  • Removing as much of the liquid from the baking dish as possible around halfway through baking, will keep the parmesan chicken nice and crispy. You can gently poor off the liquid, use a spoon or baster to suck it out, or use a baking rack in your pan to keep the chicken off the bottom. Another option is to Gently move the chicken to a parchment paper lined baking sheet half way through cooking. This will help keep the breading nice and dry and crispy.
  • For an extra crisp, add a little more parmesan cheese to the tops before baking. Then turn your oven to broil for the last few minutes, but watch very carefully.
  • The Creamy Lemon Garlic Sauce is optional. The chicken is delicious enough to have on it’s own without the sauce. So if you’re counting calories or just don’t like cream sauce, you can easily skip it.
  • This Lemon Chicken and Cream Sauce also makes a fantastic pasta, served over: Zucchini Noodles, Steamed Vegetables, Cauliflower Rice, Low Carb or Gluten Free Noodles.
  • The mayonnaise and parmesan breading will work for chicken thighs as well.  Using boneless thighs pounded flat, worked as well as the chicken breasts.

February 16, 2022 by officially gluten free 1 Comment

This creamy Spinach Cauliflower Mac and Cheese is an easy to make low carb and keto alternative to traditional macaroni and cheese. Steamed cauliflower is mixed with fresh spinach and covered in a white cheesy sauce. Then it’s smothered with mozzarella cheese and crispy bacon. It’s a delicious way to sneak in some extra vegetables into your families diet.

How to make Spinach Cauliflower Mac and Cheese

To make this Spinach Cauliflower Mac and Cheese start by preheating your oven to 350 F. Steam or boil the cauliflower flowerets just until tender, about 4 – 5 minutes. Then fry or bake the bacon until crispy. In a frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Then add the cream cheese. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is melted. Next slowly stir in the heavy cream continuing to stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil. Add 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese, then stir until the cheese is fully incorporated. Add in the garlic powder and salt and let simmer over low heat for 5- 10 minutes or until it’s thickened.

Place the cauliflower into a baking dish and top with the fresh spinach. Pour the cheese sauce over the cauliflower and spinach then use a spoon to gently mix it together. Cover the top with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Bake for 15 minutes, then chop up and add the crispy cooked bacon to the top. Bake for another 5 – 7 minutes or until the top is browned.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Recipe Notes:

  • Any type of hard cheese can be used for this recipe. If you prefer the sharp taste of cheddar cheese, feel free to switch it out.
  • The steamed/boiled cauliflower should be as dry as possible, to keep the sauce from getting too watery.
  • Frozen, then thawed and very well drained spinach can be used in place of the fresh spinach.
