British Adventures in Low-Carb Cooking
This is one of my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE pasta recipes, so I’ve been very excited to keto-fy it. The strong flavours of the spicy chorizo and sundried tomatoes, make this a great way for shirataki noodle sceptics to give them a try, as you really can’t […]
Last week, I really, REALLY wanted curry. The Tandoori chicken from before was good, but it’s still not quite the same as having a load of yummy sauce to soak up in your caulirice 😉 This butter chicken was super easy and really hit the […]
Taco beef is so wonderfully simple to make and lends itself to a load of different uses, whether in low-carb tortillas, cheese taco shells, lettuce leaf wraps, or my personal favourite, simply loaded onto a bowl of shredded lettuce with a ton of toppings including […]
So I might have been slacking on updates… between the Christmas break then hitting the ground running at work this year, blogging kinda fell by the wayside. My intention was to maintain the current weight I’d lost and although I transitioned intentionally to eating low […]
Finally able to get some weight on my ankle this week, but food was still relatively simple, back-to-basic keto style for minimum standing. Complete NSV at the weekend was having to buy some wardrobe staples (tops and jeans) in a size 12 as everything is […]
So after last week’s optimism, I seem to have either not entirely got over the gout, or I had a back-to-back attack because it seemed to mostly disappear, but then came back over the weekend in its usual place. Thankfully, due to sitting still pretty […]
I bought a few munchkin pumpkins a few weeks ago because they are awesomely low in carbs, but hadn’t figured what to do with them. Then this week I bought a bag of beautiful salmon offcuts, so thought I’d experiment by combining a lot of […]
Coley is a white fish that is similar to cod, but more sustainably fished and usually much cheaper! I’ve paired it with some of my favourite flavours: chopped cherry tomatoes, black olives and capers, with fresh parsley, lemon and olive oil. This makes a lovely […]
So after a week and a half of the longest gout flare I’ve ever had, the swelling and pain is finally subsiding and I can *nearly* put weight on my ankle again. The Naproxen painkillers really made me feel sick though, so food was pretty […]
As if the last couple of weeks couldn’t get worse: they did… After threatening to flare up over the previous weekend (I suspect through a combination of being overall feeling run down, and dehydration), the gout in my ankle decided to put in a massive […]
Words cannot describe just how much I love this pasta dish, and I think it may actually have surpassed my Chorizo, Aubergine and Tomato recipe as my new favourite! I liked it so much, and it’s SO easy to prepare that I had it twice […]
My absolute favourite pizza topping is ‘Capricciosa’, usually ham, olives, mushrooms, artichokes and tomato. I’d been wanting to try this using the Fathead Pizza base, but because I forgot to defrost any, decided instead to make it into a baked dish, bulked out with cauliflower […]
I very nearly didn’t post this, because who’s interested in cabbage soup?! Then I changed my mind, because it really is lovely – a proper winter warmer and fantastic if you’re not feeling too well. I make mine with a little pre-made carrot and swede […]
