Don’t be fooled by the name. There’s no guacamole lurking in these little bowls of pudding - only slightly “Mexican” spiced, chocolatey heaven. You’d never be able to tell these cheesecakes were low in carbs but for the lack of headache-inducing sweetness. Of course, if you have a massive sweet…
Who doesn’t love granola? Filled with nuts and other seemingly healthy ingredients, it’s often a shock to realise how much sugar is lurking in every crunchy cluster. My mission was to make an easy granola with plenty of nutritious fats and protein. Salted chocolate (and salted pecan, for that…
I was going to name this dish “Deconstructed Garlic & Chilli Butter Prawn Stir-fry”, but something seemed off. How can you deconstruct a stir-fry? By separating the prawns from the vegetables, and serving both over a bed of cabbage rather than tossing everything in together, it seemed quasi-deconstructed to me.…
I’m sorry. I just couldn’t help myself. After diving head-first into the wonderful world of protein bars, I had to try out a protein cookie. Because, as we all know, cookies>bars. Always. Anyway, this thing is deliciously filling and just sweet enough to satisfy a chocolate craving. You’ll also get…
Yes, I have delved into the world of protein bars. You know what? I love it. This delicious bar is full of healthy fats and protein (obviously), as well as those good old antioxidants from the cacao. The bar is actually kind of massive, so if you want to split…
I want to grab the person who first created flaxmeal bread and kiss them on both cheeks. This stuff is nutty, it’s moist, it’s soft and springy - all without the crumbly weirdness that so often accompanies low-carb baked goods! The flaxseeds are super-packed with fibre and omega-3 fatty acids,…
These pancakes are super easy and super tasty. Filled with plenty of fats and protein, they’ll keep you satisfied for eons. Did I mention that they taste like dessert? Because they do. This recipe can be gluten-free, grain-free, nut-free, and low-carb. Serves 2 Preparation time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 15…
Loving LCHF living is all good and well, until Easter rolls around. We’re a month out, and already the supermarket isles are teeming with chocolate eggs and spicy fruit breads . . . I make no attempts to hide my disdain for the floury topping on regular hot cross buns.…
Looking for a quick, low-carb dessert with creaminess and crunch? Now you’re looking at one. I didn’t sweeten mine, but feel free to add stevia, dextrose, or rice malt syrup. I made mine in the half-filled cream bottle, shaking until it was whipped, but you can be nicely sophisticated and…
Who likes the occasional sweet treat first thing in the morning? Guilty. Who enjoys chocolate before midday? Guilty. Who eats frosting for a healthy and balanced breakfast? Definitely guilty. I’m starting low-carb living again, a sort of ‘New Years resolution’ that won’t endure the entire year. That means fat, fat,…
