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…
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…
The title says it all, don’t you think? All I can add is this: top each portion with a fried (or poached) egg. It really amps the flavour and protein, especially if you’re full-time keto! This recipe can be gluten-free, grain-free, and egg-free if you must. Serves 3 Preparation time:…
I warn you – this granola is dangerous. Crunchy bites of coconut and mixed nuts, toasted and melded together with a buttery caramel. Oh yeah. This recipe can be gluten-free, grain-free, and egg-free. Makes just over 1 cup Preparation time: 2 minutes (plus chilling) Cooking time: 10 minutes Ingredients: –…
This recipe is dedicated to my sister, Tessa, to whom I’m grateful for the photos. When she walked in on me making this, the low-carber mournfully asked what it was. I was only too happy to tell her that, in fact, the dessert was tailored to her exact diet. Yes,…
Two ingredients. Well, three if you count the basil leaf. This ‘gelato’ – though I’m not sure it’s proper to call it that, as this is really just a cheat’s version – is creamy and utterly gorgeous. With the vivid berries and gentle coconut background, you’d hardly believe how quickly it…
If you’re looking for a low-carb meal that will leave you stunned rather than satisfied, this dish is for you. I’m talking tender chicken and a melting mix of herby cheese, all tied together – quite literally – with the ambrosia of our world. Bacon. (On a side note, I do…
Perhaps the thing I miss most about Southeast Asian food is the mango shake. On a hot day (which is every day there, really!), there’s nothing better than slurping up this icy, fruity bliss. Creamy and thick, the dairy-free version here is sure to have you feeling totally troppo. There…
You may not go for instant coffee. That’s just fine by me – but the beauty of it here is in no waiting for brewing or chilling. Just pour, shake, and drink! If you do want the real deal, replace the 1/3 cup boiling water and coffee powder with a…
