I love traditional lasagna as much as the next person, but my love for a rich and creamy white sauce is greater! This dish takes a typical low carb zucchini lasagna roll and kicks it up a creamy notch with sundried tomato alfredo sauce and a spinach and ricotta filling. It may seem time-consuming to make these zucchini noodles with a vegetable peeler, but the process goes quickly once you get the hang of it! As for the sauce, it is so rich and creamy with a hint of sweet from the addition ...
Keto Chicken Divan
I’m pretty sure everyone’s mother made some version of Chicken Divan while they were growing up. The recipe originated in a New York City hotel and was the restaurant’s signature dish. Over the years it transformed into a family favorite casserole that was easy to make, fed a crowd and fit into most budgets. Many chicken divan recipes use canned condensed soups making them easy to whip up with pantry staples. This version ditches the condensed soup but uses only a few extra ingredients ...

Instant Pot King Ranch Chicken Soup
This spicy chicken soup is wonderfully hearty and so easy to create. Chicken, butter, and spices are simmered in the Instant Pot then thickened up with cream, xanthan gum, and cheese. If you don't have an Instant Pot you can also cook in a slow cooker for 4-6 hours. This soup smells amazing! I always get compliments from other people in the house when I create it. I think you'll like this if you enjoy our King Ranch Chicken Casserole, but don't have a lot of time to create the low-carb ...

Baked Eggplant Parmesan
Eggplant is a surprisingly hearty vegetable that can make a great substitute for meat or noodles. This recipe for baked eggplant Parmesan is gooey, cheesy, comfort food at its best. The eggplant gets a crispy coating, topped with a generous serving of spicy tomato sauce and cheese. What could be better? Eggplant is naturally a little bitter, but it just takes one extra easy step to make sure it has a nice neutral flavor. Slicing the eggplant into rounds and sprinkling with salt to remove ...

Caramel Creme Brulee
The other day I was planning on making a delicious ‘creme caramel’ but also wanted to try and make creme brulee. You may wonder what the difference is. Creme caramel is a custard with a caramel sauce. The custard is made with whole eggs, allowing it to be firm enough to stand on its own. Creme brulee is a custard made with egg yolks. While it’s thick, you’d have to leave it inside a ramekin. So I figured I’d make a mix of the two. A creme brulee with a caramel bottom. It’s fairly easy and ...

Garlic Parmesan Cauliflower Wings
Cauliflower wings seem to be all the rage right now - and for a good reason! They are great for vegetarians, crispy, crunchy, and naturally low-carb! One of my favorite kinds is garlic Parmesan. There are many ways to cook this. You could roast the cauliflower for some added crunch before coating it in the sauce, or bake them in the sauce. I chose to bake them so the cauliflower could absorb the flavors of this cheesy sauce. If you want extra crispiness, you can broil the "wings" after ...

Keto Flan
Custard is a new favorite of mine, and I can’t believe how EASY it is to make! There are different ways to make it too. Adding whole eggs to a custard base will make it hold its form… If you just use egg yolks, it will have the consistency of pudding, which is excellent for a creme brulee. Today, I will be making a flan, a popular Mexican dessert, which will have a firm and robust custard that will hold its shape outside a ramekin. We will also be creating a caramel sauce with it that ...
