Thanks, Tess, for the fabulous photos. Best sister (imho). Now, you’re likely wondering what on earth I’ve done with the burger bun. My answer: oopsie bread! That probably didn”t answer anything for you, because low-carb substitutions are obscure, varied, and sometimes just downright weird. I mean, who comes up with…
You must think I’m mad. The thought of low-carb ‘corn’ chips may seem absurd, but I can assure you these are every bit as crispy and satisfying as the real thing. Of course, because you’re basically eating pure cheese here, I really do recommend balancing everything with a salad. Avocado,…
This recipe I dedicate to my wonderful sister Tess, who is possibly more haloumi-obsessed than I am. I knew we were related for a reason. Some people like grilled cheese, and I am one of those people. However, sometimes we want more – more flavours, more textures, and more nutrients!…
Bliss balls are, well, blissful. But there are ways to make them heavenly. Start with a centre of silky peanut butter fudge. Wrap around a layer of chewy, nutty filling. Smother in chocolate. I don’t tend to sweeten my bliss balls very much, especially when making them low-carb. Just taste each…
This recipe is dedicated to Beks. I’ll miss your lovely way of cheering me up without fail! Homemade cashew butter? Please don’t think this is too much of a task, because – in all modest honesty – it’s pretty hard to fudge up 🙂 The amount of stevia you use is…
There’s really nothing cheesy at all about this unbaked dessert. As for the rest of its name – you get what you see. Blueberries. Coconut. Peanut butter. There are really only these three ingredients (though I will admit the coconut comes in three forms!), minus stevia and vanilla for flavour…
Zoe Lapwood, this recipe is for you! Thank you for your friendship, your hospitality, and your truly radical musical duo skills. You’re an inspiration! Why only coat truffles in coconut, when you can put that luxuriously tropo flavour inside? These little devils have no need for regular cream and no need…
I suppose these would be more authentically “lamington” if they weren’t chocolate all the way through. Or, you know, if they were actually made from cake! In saying that, the coconut flour does help create that cakey texture. These little mouthfuls of bliss are the perfect treat for a low-carber.…
Cauliflower rice doesn’t always provide quite the fulsome bite of the real thing. However, I find that in this form – loaded with stir-fried flavour and tossed with plenty of fat and protein – you can finish your plate and feel satisfied. If you’re low-carbing, what more can you ask for?…
This slice is inspired by one sold at the cafe where I work. Although that one is, admittedly, simply scrumptious, I needed to make a low-carb version to share with my family. A date-free version was thus born! You can add extra stevia to the topping (or even the base).…
