Low Carb Shrimp Toast. So, I have been watching this series on NetFlix called The Chef’s Show and one of the many recipes that has been done was simply called Shrimp Toast. I’m thinking that not only did it seem easy, but something very, very tasty so…I thought I’d give it a try. I already had all the ingredients that were called for and this is my result. If you ever do watch it, you’ll see that mine is not too much different except for gochujang. Koreans use gochujang for just about everything and I don’t have any, let alone would I use it. It is very sugary and hot so if you want a spicier or sweeter keto shrimp toast then you could use a hot sauce and a bit of sugarfree sweetener of some kind. Now, if you do not make Carbalose Bread, or some version of low carb bread you will have to punt on that ingredient and perhaps serve it in a bowl but I did use it and the low carb shrimp toast that resulted was divine. The idea of the bread is to soak up all those heavenly juices and yes, it does do that. I think using Cauliflower Grits, which I used the following night, would be the best food option under your shrimp. I make and freeze cauliflower grits so I can use them when wanted.
The original recipe used head-on prawns and I’m thinking you may not be interested in that so yes, I did use peeled shrimp. It of course looked kinda messy and if you like that messy stuff then by all means get head-on shrimp.

Keto Lemon Parmesan Dip can be used equally as a dip or a killer salad dressing. Keto lemon Parmesan dip takes about 5 minutes to make and about four hours to “marry” the flavors in the fridge. I use it as a dip with low carb crudité veggies and yes, even as a salad dressing with the addition of olive oil and a bit of water to thin it . I guarantee it will not last in your refrigerator any longer that it will take you to use it. Try it on a sautéed chicken thigh~it’s to die for. With my own fried in lard pork pellets, Oh Yeah.
