I take no responsibility for anyone trying this and becoming addicted. I haven't tried it, but it does look very "real".

Whoops! That's a big one!

This is very basic, but great for those doing LCHF. I was struggling with breakfast as I have pretty bad morning peaks and discovered that my body really can’t stand morning carbs. I also have a long commute and not much time to get ready in the morning (unless I get up at 4.30am…)

I make this breakfast smoothie the night before, put it in the fridge, take it with me to work, and then warm it up in the microwave. It fills a normal mug nicely. It’s so creamy and filling and tastes like Horlicks (so…stay away if you can’t stand Horlicks, I guess…)

1 tbsp almond butter

1 tbsp thick double cream

200mls unsweetened almond milk

1 tsps erythritol

Whiz it all in the blender as much as you like (I like it to feel like a hot drink so I blitz loads to grind the almonds down, but if you like the crunch, go easy on the blitz)

5g carbs, 19g fat, 5g protein

Quick and easy veggie stir fry - single serving in 10 mins.

Super lazy, but full of flavour and a spicy, sweet dish that hits the spot on a cold winter night. I'm going to add some crispy bacon next time. It's light on protein so could certainly tolerate the addition of whatever meat you fancy.

This one might be high on the carbs for keto/very low-carb people. I keep under 35g per day and find I can tolerate this amount in one sitting for my evening meal without spiking (if I tried 18g of carbs before midday though, God help me...). Others may be different. You can leave out the onion and cut it to 12g carbs if you need to, but I find the onion gives it a lovely sweetness, so if onion doesn't spike you, definitely leave it in.

I had a packet of butternut squash lasagne sheets to use up so came up with this, with what I had in cupboards/fridge:

Chop onions, celery, red pepper, garlic and fry in olive oil Add mixed herbs, chilli flakes, s&p and four cans tuna and mix all together. Put third to half the mixture in oven-proof dish, sprinkle with grated cheese (I had mature Cheddar) and top with squash sheets. Repeat layers and finish with squash sheets and a good sprinkling of cheese. Bake at 180c for 30/40 mins until cheese is nice and brown and the lasagne is bubbling. I used a lot of cheese! Turned out very moreish

I made these cheesecake chocolate brownies recently and they are very delicious: https://www.gnom-gnom.com/gluten-free-keto-cheesecake-brownies/

Also for those who find breakfast tricky, these cinnamon toast cereal squares are also very good. I have them with milk: https://www.gnom-gnom.com/grain-free-keto-cinnamon-toast-crunch/

I just made my own Lo-dough garlic bread(ish) - mixed lazy garlic with olive oil and brushed both sides before sticking it in the oven at 200° for 10 mins. Needed salt as well really. Daughter had made a lovely dip with Greek yoghurt, cheese, more garlic (stinky!) and chopped chives. A nice tasty snack!

Butternut Squash chips coated with almond flour and parmesan cheese.
This is an adaption of a courgette fries recipe in the Low Carb program and produces a wonderfully tasty low carb alternative to 'real chips.'
Method:
Slice the squash into chip size slices.
Heat a baking tray with a layer of coconut oil (we used rapeseed as were out of coconut) in oven at about 180C (fan oven)
Mix almond flour and well grated parmesan and place on a dry plate.
Dip slices in beaten up egg and then coat with the parmesan and almond flour.
Place on baking tray and bake until soft to touch - turn to ensure both sides are brown.

Butternut squash has been my staple 'chip' for the past couple of years and although I enjoy it, it can get a bit monotonous. I tried the above variation this evening and it really was a revelatory gastronomic experience!!

This is a thread for recipes that you have tried and tested.Any info on carb. content etc will be good.Try and keep it just for recipes rather than discussion.

Turkey mince stir fry.

350g Turkey mince
150g protein noodles
10 button mushrooms
Half a green pepper.

Cook the mince in wok first. Adding mushrooms, then pepper and finally the noodles.

Had this two nights running to see how it effected BG level: last night before meal was 5.3 and 5.3, 2 hours later.
Tonight 6.2 down to 5.9

All the ingredients came from Morrison’s

Next time I’m going to cut down the mince to 250g this will allow me three meals out of the one packet(750g).
