Cooking on Keto! (Part II)

[MHSETRadTech]

Just tried the bread pudding, pretty good. I added two packages of Stevia and a little cinnamon. Then I made a thick paste, like a glaze, using my banana protein powder and poured it over the top, yum!

[JKN77]

these will be the death of me!!! ive been making these every day for the past week, taking them to the gym and sharing! got everyone around me hooked on keto!!

Still not impressed....

Ok, so this is not the same recipe as the first 'Low Carb Bread', but it is very similar and actually came out a LITTLE better. I was so bummed after my previous bread failure that I wanted to give this one a try as well. Needless to say, I'm still disappointed in the outcome! GRR

These bread recipes seem to lack the density and volume of real bread unlike the Banana Protein Bread...

Verdict:
STICK TO THE BANANA PROTEIN BREAD RECIPE haha I give up on any other bread substitute, though this one came MUCH closer to being 'bread-like' so I still suggest you try the recipe for yourself and share your input!

Reps for all these great recipes!

May I point you in the direction of this godly low-carb website:

http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/recipes.html

This should provide you with plenty of recipes for more tests, I've used this site many times already. Her spinach lasagna, cheeseburger quiche, and casseroles are all phenomenal. Haven't tried any of her deserts yet but they look good too

Repped, thanks for sharing that great website!

Repped, thanks for sharing that great website!

you're very welcome

I really wanted to make leejiayun's tuna eggrolls (http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showpo...93&postcount=1), but couldnt wait til this weekend so I made my own variation of the recipe with what I had. Since breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, I stuck to my morning staples: coconut oil, whole eggs, broccoli, feta, light cream, and salami meat

Verdict:
great egg variation for those getting bored of the same old omelette routine
tastes especially great with coconut oil
easy to roll up without falling apart
mixing the feta into the egg mixture turned out really really good
overall a very filling and satisfying meal

Egg Roll-Ups
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/2T coconut oil
.5oz feta
1 oz salami
1T light cream
3oz broccoli

*Notes: I wanted to try something a little different, and instead of using the feta cheese as a topping, I put it IN the egg mixture before frying it on the pan. It made the egg "wrap" taste so good!

*feel free to use your own variation of ingredients as well as how much of each, this is just what I had on hand and I usually like a 400-500 calorie breakfast

Directions:
Mix together eggs and cream (opt. to add feta or other cheese)
Melt coconut oil in pan
Pour egg mixture on pan, cook for a few min while making sure to distribute the mixture to make like a large pancake - then flip
Once egg is done, move to a plate
Fry up the meat and veggies in the same pan
Distribute meat and some of the veggies in egg mixture, roll it all up, and cut in half!

I was craving something sweet, salty, crunchy, creamy.... This is what I came up with, and it tastes pretty f*ing good

Mix all these ingredients together in a bowl and enjoy:

1 oz regular pork rinds
1/2 cup Breyers carb right Chocolate ice cream (4 net carbs)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tsp almond butter
cinnamon to taste

pork rinds and ice cream? yes, i'm serious


macros:

(this actually has about 4-5g less carbs b/c of sugar alcohols in the ice cream)

^ made something like that last night except i used chicken and brocolli



i just made this again using 2 chopped up salmon patties instead.

Also, I find if you add blobs of cream cheese over the ingredients just before adding the cheddar - TASTES LIKE SEX

threads like this make me wish I was married so I didn't have to live in the Army barracks, old enough to carry a gun, not old enough to have cooking devices in our room except for a microwave -_-

My two favorite bread meals ever! French toast and Grilled cheese... put them together and BAM! delicious

Now, unfortunately you have to have the 0g carb bread in order to make this, so I suggest you buy some right now!!

http://www.lindasdietdelites.com/die...bread-106.html

I got a loaf of the cinnamon bread and its delicious - my next order I will get another and some plain bread as well

Net carbs: <1g

Verdict:
This bread is so close to real bread its hard to describe it any better than that lol
Since I decided to make this a french toast version of a grilled cheese sandwich, the end product is a little eggy and firmer once cooked which gave the bread an excellent texture!
Since I only got one version of this bread, I'll admit that the sweetness of the cinnamon and salty combination of the meat, cheese sound a little strange, but it was actually very very good I'm so full and satisfied I'm happy I thought this up to make for lunch haha

FTGC Sandwich
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 T heavy cream
2 slices 0g carb bread
.5 oz salami
1 slice cheese (I used American)

Directions:
Heat pan and spray with pam (you could use oil or butter if you wanted I'm sure)
Scramble 1 egg in a bowl and mix in heavy cream
Coat both slices of bread with egg mixture completely (will use all of the egg mixture)
Fry both slices on the pan and flip when bottoms are golden brown
Place slice of cheese and salami (or other meat of choice) on one slice of bread
Top with remaining slice of bread
Let sit for another minute or two on both sides to melt the cheese

I'm making a second order tonight - this time in bulk and thank you! I tried on all my bathing suits earlier to see what I was workin with lol I clearly had a lot of time on my hands today...

lol yeah, gotta see which suits best show off the girls. I'm going to attempt a pork rind breaded calamari this evening. Isn't it weird to be talking about fitting into swimsuits and pork rinds in the same conversation?

haha no kidding! my friends seriously think i'm crazy when I say I want to stop at a gas station for a snack and come out with pork rinds and beef jerky lol they probably think i'm an idiot when really.....

[kwebbers]

As some of you may know, I recently received my order of low-carb goodies including 2 different bread products and I just had the chance to use the hamburger buns tonight. Well, in my opinion they taste SO great! They aren't as soft as regular buns, but for 0g net carbs, these are absolutely perfect to fill me up (17g fiber!) and make my burger more satisfying

So, for tonight's dish...

I bought the salmon patties pre-made from Whole Foods so I just fried it up in a pan and topped it with a slice of monterey jack cheese, jalepenos, some kale - and of course paired my burger with some broccoli

In for later Shepherds Pie recipe, its been so long after i read you have one im now craving it.

I just started Keto yesterday, and am excited honestly because im a huge fan of fatty meats like Pepperoni and Salami but always cut those out.

I've noticed that none of the recipes use the Shirataki Noodles in dishes that would traditionally use noodles(like your mac & cheese)...any particular reason?
I tried some a few weeks ago, once rinsed off they made a pretty damn fine noodle replacement.

I actually plan on making the Shepherds Pie this week so you're in luck

And I just got the Shirataki noodles recently so my other recipes are for every day use since those are a specialty product (I can only order them online)

[ronaldo156]

tried the Avocado fries and the "pizza crust" rollup recipies. they turned out great!

im about ready to order some of that bread. im craving an actual low carb burger w/ bread!

[FuzzeWuzze]

No Whole Foods near you out there where your at in VA?

One perk i guess of living in Oregon full of hippies, theres health food marts every few miles.
