Low Carb Tortillas / Chapati

Mexican/Indian food are one of the most loved and tasty food in this whole world, personally I am a big fan of both of them. This week I did some experiments as my urge to try street style food was not on halt. So I tried my version of Low Carb Tortillas / Chapati while maintaining Keto macros. I know there are tons of recipes on insta but most failed to impress me. And what’s life without some innovations, right ?

I know many people start Keto diet but fall of the wagon in between since they feel they have to sacrifice a lot for their favourite food, so my friend this recipe is for you, check other recipes here .

Almond flour is one of the best alternative for Keto diet which helps you in maintaining macro’s . 2 tbsp. of flour has 3 gm of Carbs which is amazing !!! If you want to check more details about nuts nutrient contents, see here .

Note:- Coconut flour is one of the alternative but is difficult to bind , so you can use physillium husk with that. Check more Keto flours here

why should we use Almond flour:

  1. High in riboflavin, manganese and copper, helps in improving energy level.
  2. Helps maintaining healthy weight .
  3. According to the study’s published,almond flour consumption can decrease the risk of colon cancer and almonds’ high healthy fat content is related to its anticancer ability.

Brussels Sprouts With Bacon

Everything tastes better with bacon and our roasted Brussels sprouts are no exception. The oven-roasting process caramelizes and crisps the leaves, turning even hardcore carnivores into veggie lovers. When I made my first Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, my family was instantly hooked onto it and I wanted to share the love with my keto family.

Brussels sprouts and bacon are, in my humble opinion, one of the best food pairings of the modern era. Good-bye soggy, bitter, unwelcome side-dish of my childhood — oven-roasted brussels sprouts are perfectly crispy, tender, and delicious. The bacon just adds a whole new level of crispy, savory delight.

And when this pair come together as an oven-roasted hash topped with fried eggs? Hello, breakfast heaven!

Brussels sprouts are not exactly low in carbs.

  • A single serving of 85 grams clocks in at 5 net carbs (8 grams of carbs minus 3 grams of fiber).
  • This doesn’t mean that they’re off the Keto menu, though! When paired with carb-free foods like bacon and eggs, they can make for a perfect Keto meal.

Long live brussels sprouts and bacon!

The best part about this breakfast (besides the part where it includes brussels sprouts and bacon and eggs) is that it only takes minutes to prepare. And while your hash roasts, you can clean up the kitchen, cook up your eggs, and be ready to go!

(anyone else love having the kitchen cleaned before they eat the meal, or is that just me?)

And before we begin , remember you are master of your bacon and brussels, so feel free to throw in your favorite garlic, ginger and other spices. I an more of a traditional gal to I stick to what my mom taught. So here you go!!! enjoy..

Creamy Parmesan Spinach

Essential part of being healthy with respect to any type of diet (KETO / Paleo /Low Carb etc. ) is to consume fresh and organic whole foods as much as possible!! One of the best low carb food is tender and fresh spinach which is an excellent ingredient in both hot and cold dishes. Adding some parmesan cheese to make a nice Creamy Parmesan Spinach dish would make up for a complete low carb dish for a date night.

Most of the people face inflammation because they over cook their food. Unhealthy eating can be one of the reason for weight gain.

A diet high in whole foods and low in preservatives and healthy fats is the essential key to Ketogenic life. They not only help in reducing inflammation but also support proper functioning of muscle and hormonal/bone health. If you inspire to know more about KETO recipes, check here

Health Benefits of spinach

  1. Spinach is among one of the most minerals and vitamin rich veggies.
  2. Has water-soluble vitamins, minerals ,phytonutrients.

Important : Studies have shown that sautéing spinach for 5 minutes is considered better than boiling/microwaving. Spinach retains its total carotenoid content doing that. Quarter of folate contents are lost by cooking , so why to cook it!!

Creamy Spinach Curry

If any vegetable deserved the title of superfood, this would definitely be Spinach. Having lived in India for some time, I still think Creamy Spinach Curry is up there among the tastiest of all Indian dishes.

But Why Spinach?

  • When you combine the recommended daily intake of electrolytes you must supplement on a keto diet, you end up with 7300 mg sodium, 5700 mg potassium and 700 mg magnesium
  • It is generally recommended to take a potassium salt and a magnesium supplement To meet these requirements. However, with proper vegetable intake, this is completely unnecessary! And I’m not talking about a ludicrous amount of vegetables either; A bag of spinach per day would basically have you covered.

Keto Fact: 100g of spinach has

  • One of the lowest carb counts at 1.4
  • Ridiculously high in potassium (558mg)
  • Magnesium (79mg)

Time and again when we share Indian food with family and friends their favorite is usually “the spinach one.” You may have heard of it as palak paneer (when served with Indian cheese) or spinach saag – but whatever the name, it’s delicious!

It’s wonderfully rich and creamy but very mild as far as curries go. My version may not be perfectly authentic, but it’s tasty. So here you go.

Spice substitution: If you don’t have coriander (probably the least common of the lot), simply replace the coriander and turmeric with curry powder. Curry powder is a nice substitute since it is typically made of mostly coriander and turmeric with a few other spices.

This dish is mostly spinach! Perfect for getting in iron, magnesium, and folate. A helping of this will also give you lots of vitamins K, A, E, B6, B2, and C. But you already know spinach is amazing, right? So, don’t wait try this amazing creamy spinach curry today.
