Spam Fried Cauli Rice

If this isn’t a fridge/pantry cleanout meal – we don’t know what is. Fun fact: did you know Spam hails from Minnesota? Like many others, we grew up eating this on the regular with rice and eggs. This ketofied version swaps out rice for cauli-rice and still tastes just as good.

Equipment

Non-Stick Frying Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 bag frozen cauliflower (riced and fully cooked) we like the Green Giant brand, it's about 3 cups.
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1 can spam (cubed)
  • 1/4 cup onions (diced)
  • 2 eggs (whisked)
  • 1/4 cup green onions
  • 1 tsp Golden Monkfruit sweetener
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • soy sauce (to taste)
  • cracked black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  • In a medium hot pan, add the 1 tbsp oil and whisked eggs. Scramble the eggs and remove them from the pan.
  • Add the second tablespoon of oil to the hot pan, cubed spam, green onions, garlic powder, and white onions. Saute until the onions are fragrant and spam starts to crisp up. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the eggs back into the pan and mix in the cooked cauliflower rice. Add a dash of sweetener and soy sauce to taste. Stir fry until the ingredients are incorporated with one another.
  • Add black pepper and give the fried rice another stir.
  • If you prefer a drier cauli rice, continue stirring the fried rice on medium heat to let the moisture from the cauliflower rice evaporate.

White Chocolate Chip Pistachio Pudding Cookies

These are a remix of our OG Chocolate chip pudding cookies. The recipe is so versatile that there are endless possibilities.

Sugar Free Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies

The trick to these is to really watch them or they will burn easily and also let them cool 100% before digging in or else they will fall apart in your hands.

Equipment

Air Fryer/Toaster Oven

Ingredients

  • 8 tbsp salted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp pistachio extract
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/3 cup sugar free white chocolate chips (use KETOBAES to save $ at ChocZero)
  • 1 box sugar free pistachio instant pudding (1 box is 4 servings of pudding)
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/3 cup Swerve Brown Sugar Replacement

Instructions

  • Use a hand mixer or thoroughly mix the butter, egg, vanilla, and sweetener.
  • Add baking powder, almond flour, chocolate chips, and instant pudding mix to the butter mixture and continue mixing until everything is incorporated.
  • Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the cookie dough onto a baking tray. Pro-tip: line the tray with parchment paper for easy clean up.
  • Use a rubber spatula or your fingers to slightly flatten the dough as it will not flatten like a flour/sugar cookie.
  • Bake the cookies at 350 degrees between 5-10 minutes depending on your oven. I use a toaster oven, so the bake time will vary for you. The cookies are ready as soon as you seen any golden color to them. You don’t want them to be golden all over as almond flour can burn quickly.
  • Let them cool completely before eating!

Keto Oatmeal (noatmeal)

This is the closest that we’ve gotten to an actual bowl of oatmeal and we are loving it. This base is so easy to to make and you can really make it your own with different extracts and mix-ins. This is a mix between cream of wheat and oatmeal but based on how you season and tweak it, could be a very good dupe for grits.

5 Keto-Friendly Snacks from Amazon

Legendary Foods Tasty Pastry (pop tart dupe)

Image source: amazon.com

If you’re looking for a nostalgic way to stay keto on the go, these are delicious and close enough to give you pop tart vibez. We like the brown sugar flavor best but there’s also a strawberry option as well. We prefer these straight outta the box but you can toast them like the real day.

Good to Go Snack Bars


Image source: amazon.com

These cakey bars give off some serious fig newton without the fig vibez. They are soft with a little chew and are the perfect sweet treat when you’re on the go.

Keto Farms Cheesy Jalapeno Mix

Image Source: amazon.com

If you’re a fan if jalapeno white cheddar popcorn mix, this one’s for you. The seasoning on the nuts and cheese is a dupe for the popcorn shop favorite and is only 2g net carbs for a serving!

Taco Bell Taco Supreme Sunflower Seeds


Image Source: amazon.com

These seeds are for those of you who are nervous snackers – trying to get the seed out of the shell is 75% of the work and where almost all of the flavor is. We love to have these on hand when we’re on long drives or road trips.

Sola Granola

Image Source: amazon.com

We have yet to try a flavor of this keto friendly granola that we haven’t liked. It’s so good you can’t even tell it’s mostly a nut mix! Eat it for a quick snack or use it as a topping on yogurt or eat it like cereal.

Vietnamese Style Grilled Baby Back Ribs

This is my all-time favorite rib marinade for Vietnamese style ribs. Something to note about asian style ribs is they are not low and slow – they are rapid fire grilling so the meat will not be fall off the one – still delish though.

I used to eat these every weekend as a child while my parents and their friends would chill at the community park. Anyone else use those asian straw mats that were like 100 feet long??

Mom’s Vietnamese Style Curry Chicken (Ca Ri Ga)

This is one of my favorite dishes my mom makes and hits the spot every time. It’s great with toasted low carb bread or served over cauli rice or keto-friendly noodles. You could honestly serve this to carbies because the biggest swap is monkfruit sweetener for sugar.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cut small bite sized pieces of boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 pound, I had 6 thighs in my package). Mix them with one egg, a tablespoon of garlic powder, teaspoon of salt, and teaspoon of pepper. Add one tablespoon of any kind of milk.
  • Add about one cup of @isopure whey protein powder (UNFLAVORED, not natural, people) and mix it around to coat the chicken. I GRADUALLY added the protein powder as I mixed and the powder settled/got stuck to the bottom or side so this step is dependent on how it sticks to the chicken.you could likely use less for sure. There just needs to be some sprinkled on the chicken for there to be a crunch. It shouldn’t be a sludge like batter though. Like a wet dusting, if that makes sense.
  • Drop the “battered” chicken one piece at a time in hot oil (375 degree oil) – cook for at least 3 minutes but just take it out when it’s crispy enough for you.
  • While the chicken is cooking, heat a skillet on low and mix equal parts sugar free orange marmalade, soy sauce, & monkfruit sweetener. Then add ginger powder, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper to taste. Stir the sauce and then add a tablespoon of water because it thickens fast.
  • Take the chicken out and put it in a bowl. Pour the sauce over it and then place another bowl on top and shake it!! Serve with a side of steamed broccoli.

5 Must Haves from ChocZero

If you like chocolate, keep reading 😊. When we first started eating a ketogenic diet, the only chocolates we really were eating were Russell Stover’s or Hershey’s Sugar Free varieties – which there’s nothing wrong with them but they are filled with maltitol and we’re trying to clean up our act. Maltitol can also cause discomfort, but we’ll get into that another time. Luckily, ChocZero came into our lives and we have yet to find a superior chocolate/syrup company. 

If you’re interested in purchasing anything from ChocZero, use KETOBAES as a discount code to save 10% on your purchase. We even use the code ourselves!

Here are the top five must haves from ChocZero 🍫:

  1. Peanut Butter Cups: Ok these are better than the real deal and there’s no guilt after you eat 1,2, or even 3. We personally like the white chocolate ones the best, followed by milk chocolate and then the dark chocolate.
  2. Milk Chocolate Squares: We are totally white and milk chocolate people so these are the perfect treat if we are craving something sweet. It has a toffee undertone but we are OK with that. These are perfect with peanut butter or by themselves. 
  3. Milk Chocolate Chips: These melt so beautifully and are everything you could ask for for a sugar free chocolate chip. We’ve tried other brands and they just don’t melt as nicely as these ones do – a much better dupe for the real deal. 
  4. Maple Syrup: This is thicker than your sugary syrup but the taste is so on point it doesn’t matter what the texture is. This tastes like the real deal and we love to pour it over our pancakes, bacon, and brussels.
  5. Caramel Syrup: this one’s smooth and sweet and so perfect on top of baked bars or in beverages.
