Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps
The sauce for these chicken lettuce wraps is extremely addicting. The sriracha adds a little heat, but you can definitely leave it out if you like (although, we like to add a little extra 😉).

BLT Sushi
We consider the BLT to be a major food group around here and that's why we've made just about every form of BLT we can think of (have you SEEN BLT Egglets??). Before you can say anything, we know these's aren't technically "sushi". It's just bacon rolled around some lettuce and tomatoes, but we love it and think it's super fun to call it sushi!

Butternut squash is another great alternative to pasta. We love it tossed with just a little olive oil and Parmesan, but marinara is another go-to for us!

Cauliflower Baked Ziti
Ok fine. There's not actually any ziti in this recipe. But you honestly won't even notice. The blanched cauliflower does a fine job of replacing the pasta. Just make sure to drain it well before tossing it with the sauce. (P.S. It's also great at replacing macaroni in our loaded cauliflower bake.)

Yep, cauliflower waffles are a thing and we love 'em.

Ham & Cheese Egg Cups
This low carb breakfast comes together in no time—seriously, you only need 20-ish minutes! If you like your eggs super runny, you might want to pull them from the oven a minute before you think they're ready. You'll need to let them rest for a bit in the muffin tin before taking them out (they'll be HOT), and during these few minutes, the eggs will continue to cook slightly.

Keto Egg Salad
Classic egg salad is usually keto-friendly as it is. But because fat=good, we added an extra creamy, but healthy element: avocado! The whole thing tastes nice and fresh but trust us, it'll really fill you up. Do we recommend serving it with crispy bacon? Of course we do.

Low Carb Pizza Crust
If you’re familiar with the keto diet, you know that the secret to a good keto bread = CHEESE! And lots of it. Here, we use two kinds—mozz and Parm—plus eggs as a binder. We know it sounds strange but it adds an amazing flavour and texture that mimics what you'd find in normal bread.
Get the Low Carb Pizza Crust recipe.

Loaded Cauliflower Bake
This tastes like classic macaroni and cheese but instead of pasta, there's cauliflower. And lots of BACON. You definitely want to cook the cauliflower a little first so that it doesn't take forever in the oven. After about 30 minutes, you won't be able to stand it any longer.

Low Carb Chicken Pot Pies
Chicken Pot Pie is one of our all-time favourite comfort foods. It's creamy, hearty, and... full of carbs. This version harnesses the power of riced cauliflower (and a bit of cheese) to make a crust that's super delicious and super healthy. Win/win!

We're all for a genius low-carb hack — and these tomatoes totally deliver. We had never thought to stuff them with taco meat, cheese, and sour cream, but we'll do anything in the name of ditching a tortilla for a low-carb meal.
