Low carb Hong Kong Bubble Waffle

Bubble waffles are one of the easiest ways jam a bunch of your favorite desserts into the palm of your hand. We love bubble waffles because they are so versatile in terms of what you can do with them. These are usually a hit at parties because people can stuff them with whatever toppings and fillings their hearts desire. We used Rebel Creamery ice cream and sprinkled crushed dried raspberries, strawberry syrup, pomegranate seeds, and fresh strawberries in ours, but the possibilities are truly endless.

If you don’t have a bubble waffle maker, just use this batter for regular waffles!

Low Carb Vietnamese Caramelized Pork Belly

This recipe is super easy to make and uses asian pantry essentials. Make sure you open your windows while you cook this LOL. This is a really easy way to prepare pork belly – we like to buy the pre-cut strips from Costco. The pork is super tender, salty, sweet, and has this great umami element. Pair it with pickled greens, boiled eggs, boiled cabbage, cauli-rice, or any mild tasting vessel to balance out the flavors

Low Carb Vietnamese Caramelized Pork Belly

Comfort food at it’s finest.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Course: dinner, lunch
Cuisine: Asian
Keyword: caramelized, pork, pork belly, sugar free, vietnamese food
Servings: 8 people

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat a large pan with 2 tablespoons of oil on medium high heat. Once heated, add the 2 pounds of pork belly and garlic powder. Cook until the outside of the pork is no longer pink.
  • After about five minutes, add fish sauce and soy sauce and stir. Cook for another 10 minutes.
  • Add brown sugar replacement and stir thoroughly to coat all of the pork. Cook for another 5-6 minutes to let the sugar caramelize over the pork. Once the pork belly is a dark golden color, drain excess fat ( you can save this for future cooking or put it in a container, let it harden, then discard it).
  • Sprinkle black pepper to taste and adjust the sweetness based on your preference. Add chopped thai chilis as desired, I do this once the pork belly is caramelized.

Triple Chocolate Noatmeal

This is a remix to our OG Noatmeal recipe and it’s seriously so good that it feels wrong.

Some answers to FAQs:

  1. Can I omit coconut if I don’t like it? Yes!! You do you and make it your own.
  2. Can I use something other than choc zero? Of course, we just like how smoothly it melts.
  3. What if I don’t like almond flour? Don’t use it – and just add a few tablespoons of shredded coconut or flax in place of the almond flour.
  4. Can I make this without chocolate? Yes! Use the base to make whatever flavor oatmeal you used to love. Just omit the chocolate.

Keto-Friendly Scotch Eggs

Scotch Eggs are one of my favorite gastropub eats and they are a lot easier to make than they seem. You just need a little practice and you’ll be whippin them up like a pro in no time. I like mine with honey mustard or sugar free maple syrup depending on my mood. You can use Italian sausage or breakfast sausage – whichever floats your boat. I prefer Italian Sausage most of the time.
