I had this for breakfast today.  (I ate mine before I could do a proper breakfast pic.)  It's funny because I gave my Belgian waffle maker away when I emptied the carbs out of my house.
Then I read this recipe and hit the Amazon website.  
I'm really impressed with how many keto-friendly recipes there are for the foods I love, and even more impressed with how damn tasty they are.

I would not be afraid to serve this to anyone that like Eggs Benedict.  In fact, I would wager money that they would prefer this version to the one with the high carb English Muffin.
Macros:  With the Eggs Benedict variation, the macros come out to be 565 Calories, 44.8g Fats, 3.5g Net Carbs, and 35.8g Protein per serving.
The recipe is at the link, and the ingredients are listed the bottom of the post.

Makes Two (2) Servings













Breakfast Cauliflower Waffles








  • 1 – 1 1/2 cup Grated Raw Cauliflower



  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese



  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese



  • 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese (any variety will do, we love white cheddar)



  • 3 Large Eggs



  • 3 tbsp. Chives, chopped



  • 1/2 tsp. Onion Powder



  • 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder



  • 1/4 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes



  • Salt and Pepper to taste







Eggs Benedict (Single Serving)








  • 2 large Eggs



  • 2 slices Prosciutto



  • 2 tbsp. Hollandaise Sauce (Trader Joe’s Brand)

I made pan-fried chicken wings over the weekend.



Cut the wings into drummettes and flappers, discarded the tips.  Some people keep them to make chicken stock.




I dried the wings and shook them in a gallon-size baggie with almond flour (8g carbs/7g fiber per 1/4C serving,) cayenne pepper, white pepper, a little garlic powder and salt.




In a large pan with a 50/50 mix of bacon grease and coconut oil heated to 375° (enough to cover the wings halfway) I cooked them for 3 minutes per side, then transferred the wings to a parchment paper-line baking sheet in a preheated 400° oven.  Cooked an additional 30 minutes, then drizzled with Frank's Hot Sauce (I don't like wet wings...)




They were quite good.  Crispy and juicy, with a little bit of graininess from the almond flour - not quite as good as AP flour and panko, but definitely workable.

Simple for me this week.
Spinach with rotisserie chicken. I used McCormick Grill Mates Seasoning, Montreal Chicken, but Weber's garlic herb is my favorite.


I use this. It comes with a little cage that can do just a few breasts or using the rods can do a whole large chicken.

Not technically a recipe, but just goes to show how easy it is to eat simple and tasty food with little effort.

That looks like canned spinach.  




Also, I haven't been able to find good protein bars that don't also have a lot of carbs.  What are the carb/fiber numbers on those?

It was frozen spinach. It's meh, but better than anything else I had.

I live an hour from everything, so finding fresh stuff is hard.

Looks like LOTS of carbs.

Do you think I can do this in a standard ( small hole ) waffle maker?  I can't find the Belgium one that we own. I think it's in a storage container and it's a wall of boxes.

That's the sweet spot for me too.  In another week ( after getting near goal weight and glucose levels) I hope to bump the carbs, solely for more variety with the vegetables.  I'm thinking about a small sweet potato with a slab of butter

I don't see why not, although it might cook faster.

 



I cooked mine in the Belgian waffle maker for about 8 minutes.  I tried stopping at 4 minutes because the outside looked done, but the inside wasn't done.  My waffle maker doesn't have a temperature control, so I said, "What the heck, let's see what happens."




Turned out really good, and the outside actually didn't burn at all.




I'd try 5 minutes in your standard waffle maker.

WAY too many carbs for a keto diet.

Quoted:
There are a few of us who have adopted the ketogenic lifestyle, or at least exploring it.

It's difficult to leave carbs behind, as so many good foods are high in carbs.


Share your keto-friendly recipes here!


I don't condone plagiarism, so if you've paid for recipes (like in a cookbook,) keep in mind that they're most likely copyrighted, and shouldn't be published here (I'm not going to debate the legality of altering a copyrighted recipe and presenting it as original - that's for you to decide.)


But there are a bunch of great recipes out there in the public domain, so if you've tried any that you found delicious, share them with the rest of us!


I'll start with a very simple thing I had for dinner last night.  Makes 1 serving.


4 oz. fresh tuna steak (Yellowfin is best.)
Chia seeds
Ghee


Pre-heat a cast iron or carbon steel pan on medium-low for about 10 minutes.
Put 2 Tbsp of chia seeds in the pan to toast them.
Add a high-temp 'good' oil like Ghee (clarified butter,) which has a smoke point of 485°.
Turn heat up to medium-high (about 425°)  You do have a laser thermometer, right?
Cook the tuna 1-3 minutes per side.  You want to coat the meat with the chia seeds and sear it, leaving the center to your taste.  Some like it raw, some rare, and some a little more cooked.  I did mine for 2 minutes per side.


I accompanied it with simple steamed brocolli.




Sauce:


2 Tbsp home-made mayo (I'm still experimenting with the home-made mayo thing.  The first batch I tried was good, but needs tweaking.)
2 tsp olive oil
1 Tbsp heavy cream
2 tsp soy sauce.
1 tsp Sriracha


Blend with a stick blender.  Adjust soy sauce, Sriracha to taste.

I'm sure you have a cast iron or carbon steel pan.  Get a laser thermometer - they're cheap.  And get a stick blender - they're invaluable, and anyone eating keto needs to have one.  I mix things in a mason jar.  The stick blender needs to have some height to do its job.  Try blending in a shallow dish and enjoy the mess!


ETA - another tip.  To make the mayo, you'll want to add whey, which will extend the life in the fridge out to six months or so.


How do you get whey?  You first have to find unstrained organic yogurt.  I found mine at Publix Greenwise.  Then I used a folded up piece of cheesecloth in a fine mesh cone strainer and let the yogurt separate for about two hours.  You can refrigerate the whey, and use it for multiple batches of mayo. Then eat the yogurt!

There are probably other uses for whey.  Chime in if know any!


And for those of you who want to learn more, I suggest ruled.me.  They've been a great resource for me in the 7 weeks I've been keto-active.

Buy a rotisserie chicken (or two,) save the skins for cracklin', and shred the chicken.

FYI, one chicken yields about a pound of shredded meat, so you'll need four chickens for your recipe - which seems like a lot...

eracer asked for a recipe, so here goes.

1 Spaghetti Squash
1/2 lb lean ground beef (or a whole lb if you like it extra meaty.. hurr hurr)
1 small container sour cream (like, 6 oz)
Cheese of your choice (i like colby jack)
1/2 onion
Green onions (amount as desired)

prep the spaghetti squash. I like to de-seed it, cut it up into a few pieces, microwave it in a pan with 1/4" water for 10 minutes and then bake at 400 for 35. That usually makes for perfect, shred-able squash.

Brown your ground beef, season with onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt. Drain. Or don't... i know you keto people like your fats. I'll leave that up to you.


Mix together the cooked squash, ground beef, chopped onion, sour cream, and I'd say, oh, a cup of cheese. I cook for two so if you're cooking for a family you want want to double everything. Once it's all mixed together, put in a casserole pan, top with some more cheese, and bake for about 15 minutes at 350. It's just to get the cheese nice and gooey and the flavors steeped together.

Serve, top with salsa and a little sour cream if desired.

Didn't know about this thread and Dan wanted fat bomb info.  

I've made 3 fat bomb recipes and this one was amazing.  Totally tastes like an Almond Joy.  http://wholenewmom.com/recipes/healthy-chocolate-almond-joy-home-made-candy/

The recipe makes a lot but they keep for a long time in the fridge.  

Also, you know how people will say, "I served this and nobody even knew it was a healthy version"?  This right here.  If you need a dessert to serve but want to stay in your zone, I highly recommend this.  http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/2016/05/low-carb-lemon-sour-cream-pie.html

I'm going to try the pizza recipe posted earlier.  I've made the Fathead pizza and I loved that you make an actual dough but that looks neat too.  

This is good and has a base similar to the pizza posted but with no down time for the cooling.  http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/taco_bake.html

I tried this and it was pretty good but too labor intensive to make for my family of 5.  Would be great for just 1 or 2 though.  Small portion but VERY filling.  Throw some chicken and broccoli in there and you may not be able to finish it.  http://www.ibreatheimhungry.com/2014/07/egg-fast-recipe-fettuccini-alfredo-low-carb.html

Made the ruled.me pizza last night. I might have messed up on the crust a bit. Didn't stick together like dough should and I had to bake it longer than they suggested and it still came out really soft.

Tasted great though so that's all that matters.

That was a good reminder that spaghetti squash isn't too carb heavy, thanks.  What beef cut do you use?  Do you think sirloin is too lean?

Nope.

Probably why it didn't work right. I couldn't find any though and didn't want to wait for Amazon.

I've been looking at the desert recipes here http://www.tasteaholics.com/recipes/low-carb-desserts/
I've tried the peanut butter cookies but I overcooked them. They tasted like a hard peanut butter cookie, they'd be good slightly under cooked. I also made the white chocolate pecan fat bombs and they were pretty good.

Macros:  With the Eggs Benedict variation, the macros come out to be 565 Calories, 44.8g Fats, 3.5g Net Carbs, and 35.8g Protein per serving.

The recipe is at the link, and the ingredients are listed the bottom of the post.

Finally got around to making this today for lunch.  Both of us really enjoyed it and I retired to the couch purring like a kitten  It's a nice combination of ingredients and the chives provided a nice flavor.

Trader Joe's is an hour drive away so my wife made the Hollandaise .  I'll post the recipe when I see her this evening.

Thanks!

A couple of questions:

What are you using as a flour replacement for a roux or to firm up gravy?  I tried coconut flour in a onion and mushroom gravy last night and it had a gritty texture.

We enjoy meatballs or meatloaf during the work week because they both reheat well.  Are there any good substitutes for bread crumbs or panko?

I haven't tried a roux.  I would try almond flour.  But xanthan gum will firm up a gravy quite nicely.

I don't think there's a good substitute for a gluten flour, which is what you want for a proper roux.





For a bread crumb substitute, try grinding chicharrones (pork rinds) in a food processor.  Zero carbs.

Made the ruled.me pizza last night. I might have messed up on the crust a bit. Didn't stick together like dough should and I had to bake it longer than they suggested and it still came out really soft.

Tasted great though so that's all that matters.

It takes a lot of mixing of the crust to get it to blend for me.

I've made three of these in the last week, I've found that having the ingredients ready to add to the melted cheese mixture as soon as it comes out of the microwave is the key. Just use a good spatula and keep folding the mixture together. My family liked the pizza so much my sister is planning on starting the keto diet next week, she's running a race this weekend otherwise she'd have done it sooner. She's already read Keto Clarity, since Tuesday.

I made this yesterday, it's pretty good. I'm not a huge fan of dark chocolate so if I made it again I'd probably make some changes with less bakers chocolate and maybe more cocoa and heavy cream or something.

They came out good didn't rise any though so I need to look into that. More like cheesy bread than biscuits so I'm going to find a recipe without the cheese.

I use a combination of cream and unflavored gelatin. Sour cream (most have guar gum or other thickener) can also work well.

That's a good idea.  I think I'll try some low carb swedish meatballs Friday.

I picked up some chicharrones yesterday and a bottle of xanthan gum should arrive today.

Thanks for the help.

I'm finding that a good food processor is almost a necessity.

 



I had a cheap one.  Donated it to Salvation Army and bought a good Cuisinart model.

I don't have a food processor, and smashing pork rinds in a plastic bag to use for breading is a pain in the rear.  I will need to get one soon.

Hasselback chicken



Slice chicken breast cross-cut.  Slice 75% of the way through.









You can stuff it with just about anything.





Tonight I mixed:



2 Tbsp goat cheese

1 large paper-thin slice of Serrano ham, chopped coarsely

1 Tbsp finely diced shallots



After stuffing the slots...cover with grated cheese.



I used:



Smoked Gouda with bacon  



Salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika.



Bake at 350° for 20 minutes - check internal temp, should be 145.  Let sit for a few minutes to redistribute the juices.



Steamed broccoli with melted butter is a good side dish.



I forgot to take a picture of the finished dish, but it looked something like this.
