Keto Hamburger

1 Reply

Keto HamburgerKeto HamburgerKeto HamburgerKeto Hamburger. And you thought you couldn’t have a lowcarb keto hamburger anymore?  Well think again-you certainly can!  I use a smoked cheddar cheese. Dorset Red and comes from Ford Farms in Dorset, England.  This is the real deal and by far the best smoked cheddar I have ever eaten. Lettuce too much, skip it and add pork skins as a side. If you really think you need a bun you can make them from Carbalose Flour Bread

Low Carb Flank Steak Garlic Blue Cheese ButterLow Carb Flank Steak Garlic Blue Cheese ButterLow Carb Flank Steak Garlic Blue Cheese Butter. All I can say about this is man oh man, this low carb flank steak garlic blue cheese butter is restaurant quality good and the blue cheese butter can actually be used with any number of different cuts of beef steak like a nice thick filet mignon, a New York strip, a rib-eye, and even a great big fat porterhouse.  The accompanying salad is sprouts and veggies with a sugar-free Thai Peanut Sauce.

Ingredients
  1. 4 T Butter Salted
  2. 3 Oz Good Quality Bleu Cheese

  5. ¾ Lb Flank Steak
  6. Fresh Ground Pepper
  7. Salt If Necessary
Directions
  1. Melt butter, add garlic & green onion, cook for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat. Crumble bleu cheese into butter and let residual heat melt it about halfway.
  2. Slice meat and lay on plate being careful not to overlap slices.
  3. Add lots of freshly ground pepper

Notes
  1. There are two secrets to a really good flank steak. The first is that it be cooked no more than medium-rare (I like very rare) and the second is that it is very thinly cut across the grain. I try to cut at a 45 degree angle and not more than a ¼” thick.
  2. The proportions can be adjusted to suit your preference of butter vs cheese, or if you want to knock out the slight sharpness of straight bleu then use Gorgonzola instead.
  3. You could also use shallots in place of the green onions. I have tried it both ways but much prefer the green onions.

Low Carb Caramelized Walnuts

Leave a reply

Low Carb Caramelized Walnuts.  I don’t have the foggiest idea where I read it but somewhere I read that Swerve will caramelize.  That sounded sort of interesting so I think I ordered a one lb. package of it from Netrition because I had been wanting to try it anyway.  Well…it does caramelize and this recipe is the result but…and in light of new information regarding Oligosaccharides, I Do Not Believe this recipe is as low carb as indicated and neither should you.

As I am a Type II diabetic, and in light of new information regarding Oligosaccharides, I Do Not believe this recipe for low carb caramelized walnuts is low carb and neither should you.

Caramelized Walnuts
Print
Ingredients
  1. 1 C Walnuts Large Chop
  2. ¼ C Swerve
Instructions
  1. Put ingredients in non-stick pan on medium. When Swerve begins to melt start stirring gently and constantly. This may take 4-5 minutes but do not leave it alone or it will burn. When nuts are toasty light brown pour onto a silpat or a piece of parchment paper and leave it alone to cool a bit. When you can handle them, gently break apart. (They may be sticky at this point) Let cool completely. They will not be sticky anymore-they will be light and crackly and very similar to the Cracker Jacks I ate and loved as a child.
  2. Serves: 8
  3. Serving Size: 2 T
  4. 196 Calories 2g Carbs, 1g Fiber, 1g Net Carbs
Notes
  1. The most amazing thing! When the nuts are completely cooled they are shiny, shiny, shiny, just like any other candied nut.
  2. These are really nifty.
  3. More is definitely NOT better. Do not over cook or over brown and do not add more Swerve thinking they will be sweeter. The Swerve does not soak into the nuts-it will only coat them.

Low Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary Glaze

Low Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary Glaze Low Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary GlazeLow Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary GlazeLow Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary GlazeLow Carb Pork Tenderloin-Dijon Garlic Rosemary Glaze. These are the first pictures I have done for this recipe because for many years I have purchased pork tenderloin from my local butcher shop, the pigs are only about 200-220 lbs., hence the tenderloins are only about 8-10 oz. which for me is perfect but not to slice twice, stuff, and bake.  I bit the bullet and bought a conventional tenderloin just to take pics.  I also now use Natural Directions Organic Dijon Mustard and as you can see it does not hold up as well as it is a bit thinner than Grey Poupon so the little crowns look kinda bare.  Not to worry, the taste is absolutely terrific.  I do eat this from time to time but now I just dip a bite of meat into the sauce and if you are looking for a garlicky piquant meal then this low carb pork tenderloin-dijon garlic rosemary glaze is gonna do it for you.

  1. Make two scores (one left and one right of center) about ½” deep lengthwise on top of the tenderloin and spread the glaze into the furrows.
  2. Bake tenderloin in a preheated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.
  3. Let rest 5-7 minutes and slice into ¾” medallions which should look like little crowns.

Notes
  1. I have a confession. I cook my pork to just a little under medium. I definitely want it pink in the center. If you do not then cook it 5-10 minutes longer.
  2. If you want to feed more than two-three people then a boneless center-cut pork loin is best cut for this.

Keto Tartar Sauce

Keto Tartar SauceKeto Tartar SauceKeto Tartar SauceKeto Tartar SauceKeto Tartar Sauce is such a subjective taste for everyone. This keto tartar sauce is an “original” recipe used in a seafood house I once worked in and I have always loved it.  I think the secret is once again, the grated onion.  I have made it keto with the addition of  Sugar Free Mt. Olive Sweet Relish which can be found on the Netrition website.  The original recipe started with 4 gallons of mayo so this is a real cut down.

Keto Rosemary Aioli

Leave a reply

Low Carb Rosemary AioliLow Carb Rosemary AioliThis Keto Rosemary Aioli was part of an appetizer I first served long ago and far away as part of a catered 25th wedding anniversary affair for two people.  The setting was Virginia in August, on a 60 acre farm down by their water spring surrounded by huge beautiful trees.  Now get this; it was a surprise from the husband to his wife.  How cool is that? Formally set table and I even printed fancy menus.

I had eaten the appetizer recipe many times much to my own gustatory delight, but can no longer do so because of the carb content, but the keto rosemary aioli …I have used it ever since.  It is literally good on a brick but probably best served on the side with rack of lamb, a good steak, or prime rib. This recipe is a couple places on the internet but it is so good and I use it so often that I am putting it here.

Low Carb Cranberry Orange Relish

Low Carb Cranberry Orange RelishCranberry Orange RelishThis Low Carb Cranberry Orange Relish is so easy to make it’s pathetic. It is also pathetically good.  With leftovers you can make Cranberry Orange Mousse and Cranberry Orange Cream Cheese Pie. This is not just for Thanksgiving anymore. I buy bags and bags of cranberries and freeze them so we can eat it whenever we want. It is easy enough to cut this recipe in half if you don’t want so much at one time…but you will.

Low Carb Granola

Low Carb GranolaLow Carb Granola. About the second or third day we started eating this low carb granola with Yogurt and blueberries my husband turned to me and said “I think I could eat this every day for the rest of my life”…and so we have…almost every day. We do have a new Low Carb Warm Paleo Cereal now too.

As a mindfulness practice I hand-break my walnuts and pecans. They are more evenly sized pieces which mean fewer fines and it only takes about 20 minutes.

  3. Pour over dry ingredients and mix well.

  7. Return to oven and bake 30 minutes longer.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool until you can break up the larger chunks by hand.
  9. Return to oven, bake another 30 minutes, turn off oven, and then let cool in oven.

Notes
  1. You can add desiccated coconut, sugar free dried cranberries, blueberries or anything else your little heart desires and this would change the nutritionals so beware-dried fruits have had their sugars concentrated so you need to add only a few. Example: ¼ C fresh blueberries is about 4g net carbs and ¼ C dried blueberries is about 29g net carbs. Big Difference. If you do decide to add any dried fruits cut them in little pieces-the smaller the pieces, the larger the surface area and this equals more flavor.
  2. Mix seeds or nuts you like. Go crazy.

Coleslaw & Dressing
Print
Ingredients
  1. ½ C Mayo
  2. ½ C Sour Cream
  3. 1½ T White Vinegar
  4. 1½ T Lemon Juice
  5. 1 T Grated Onion
  6. 2 t Celery Seed
  7. 1 t Dry Mustard
  8. ½ t Paprika
  9. ¼ t Salt
  10. ¼ t Pepper
  11. 5 Drops EZ-Sweetz Liquid Splenda***
  12. 1 Medium To Large Head Cabbage Finely Shredded
Instructions
  1. Mix all ingredients except shredded cabbage and check for taste. If you like it sweeter, add more Splenda, 1 drop at a time.
  2. Add in cabbage and toss to coat. I use a mandoline which makes your slaw slices fine and evenly cut.
  3. This slaw will not ‘weep’ much liquid because there is very little salt and no sugar in it.
  4. Serves 8
  5. 250 Calories, 2.5g Protein, 23.3g Fat, 7.5g Carbs, 3.0g Fiber, 4.5g Net Carbs
Notes
  1. If you have a little dressing left over, it saves quite well in the refrigerator or...it makes a really good salad dressing and pairs well with avocados and tomatoes.
  2. A little tip here: To get the finest cutting, it’s best to start shredding at the top of the cabbage and work down to the core, then take out the core and then finish shredding. Don’t worry about taking the outer cabbage leaves off if they are still a bright green as they add great color. You’re going to end up with a lot of shredded cabbage but as the dressing is mixed into it, it will “shrink”.
  3. I love the piquancy of the mustard-grated onion-sweetness combination and if you don’t, then by all means adjust accordingly.
  4. I eat at least 4-5 helpings of this a week and have it in the refrigerator almost all the time during the summer.
  5. Notice I do not use slaw mix. Slaw mix has carrots in it and for anyone watching their carbs, carrots are little sugar bombs so I steer clear of them.
