My girlfriend has been begging me to make a keto copycat of her favorite pizza: the Thai Chicken Pizza from California Pizza Kitchen. Though I've never had it before, I love experimenting with Thai style flavors, and thought this would be a really great treat to have! Of course, I'm using the same pizza base as the pepperoni pizza many of you have tried on the site - though we make it a little bit flatter and opt to go for the flatbread shape. All said and done, it was a magnificent keto ...
Reverse Seared Ribeye Steak
This is by far the best method for tender steak you will ever use. Both my girlfriend and I agreed that this was the best steak we've both ever eaten, be it from a restaurant or at home. It's opened my eyes and I don't think I'll ever be making a steak any other way. The thing I love most about this method is that you don't get any rings on the internal cook of the meat. You don't have half an inch of well-done meat from the hard sear, it's a perfectly rare (or whatever temperature you take ...

Keto Tater Tot Nachos (AKA Totchos)
Totchos are an up and coming dish that has only started building momentum in the last few months. So, what are totchos? They're deliciously crisp tater tots dressed like nachos - gooey cheese, browned ground beef, and gloriously topped with sour cream, salsa, olives, and jalapenos. Curiously, totchos have really been on an upswing in 2015. With a search history spiking in early January, totchos have started to be a craving in many households across the US. Of which, the main city to be ...

Blackberry Chipotle Chicken Wings
A sweet, smokey, crunchy, and absolutely delicious wing that you will want to make again and again. These chicken wings really bring together some fantastic flavors and will definitely be a hit with anyone who has them. Even the non-keto folks will be asking for more, as the sweetness and slight smokiness from the Blackberry Chipotle Jam really comes through. I chose to cook these with the marinade on (rather than tossing them in sauce afterward) because I really wanted to flavor to come ...

Keto Chicken Pad Thai
Sometimes we really miss going to a Thai restaurant and being able to sit down and enjoy the food. But, being keto we try to find ways around that and still be able to make food that plays to the cravings we have. Last night, Pad Thai was on the menu - and let me tell you - it was AMAZING! We inhaled the dish within minutes and felt so satisfied after - just like you would when eating a regular meal with normal pasta. Two things that really can't go wrong in a dish: delicious AND healthy. The ...

Keto Crispy Sesame Beef
This recipe for sesame crispy beef is the keto-fied version of a classic dish found in many Chinese restaurants. We keep it keto-friendly with the use of daikon noodles instead of rice, trading out the typical sirloin steak for a fattier cut, and using creative ways to achieve the sweet aspects. This dish, when cooked at your local Chinese restaurant, typically has some sweetness. In this recipe, stevia paired with rice wine vinegar and vegetables does the job of creating a bit of sweet ...

Ketogenic Nasi Lemak
This is a very popular rice dish that can be found in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. In fact, it is Malaysia's national dish. Usually called Nasi Lemak, it is roughly translated to Rice Fat. When relating to the culture, that usually means coconut rice. It's an extremely common dish that's served pretty much everywhere: street vendors (garai), night markets (pasar malam), restaurants, and made in homes across the countries. Traditionally, it's wrapped in banana leaves and ...

Low Carb Sausage and Pepper Soup
I've been a fan of Hot Sausage and Pepper Soup for a long time. Even when I started the website, that was one of the first recipes I posted (so don't be in too much shock when you see a cell phone picture - oh, how we've come a long way). Since then, I wanted to bring the carb counts down two-fold for the recipe. Re-vamping it made an old favorite into a new, lower carb version. We've replaced all of the onion with onion powder, added a bit more meat to round out the fattiness, and taken ...

Low-Carb Chicken Curry
Probably one of the easiest Malaysian curries, Ayam Masak Lemak has been turned low-carb! It's missing a few high-carb ingredients from the original style, but this speaks for itself in terms of flavor. Directly translated: Ayam means chicken, Masak means cook, and Lemak means fat. So it means chicken cook fat. Typically when something is described as lemak (fat), it means the dish is creamy. Originally, Masak Lemak refers to a protein that's cooked in coconut milk and turmeric. The "fat" ...

Thai Chicken Zoodles
This is a keto-fied version of Fried Noodles, or Mee Goreng, inspired by the Japanese version of Yaki Udon. These have a slight Indian influence on them since my friend is from Brunei. His mom used to get this for him whenever she went to the coffee shop, and he wanted to re-create it! The typical ingredients in this are ketchup, chili paste, potato, tomato, tofu, sweet and dark soy sauce, and it's served with a citrus and chili sauce. There are three well known versions of this: chicken, ...
