Keto Pulled Pork Tacos

This recipe for Keto Pulled Pork Tacos includes two different ways to prepare the pulled pork. The first is carnitas style which is flavoured with taco spices and the second is with low carb bbq sauce. Low carb bbq sauce can be expensive and hard to find, so I though I’d add a less expensive option.

Low Carb Naked Wonton Soup

My Family Loves this Naked Wonton Soup Recipe. When they ask if I could make it again, I’m happy to because it’s so much easier than having to wrap the wontons in a wrapper and I think they taste just as good. I also love how healthy this soup is. Bone broth is so good for you and is a great way to make your meals go a bit farther. Whenever we get a roasted chicken, (which is usually once a week) I boil down the bones in a large pot over medium heat for a few hours. Then I use a strainer and bowl to Separate the liquid from the bones. I save it in the freezer to make soup or sauces with throughout the week.
