Just like my sugar free sorbet, blackberry frozen yogurt, and coconut milk ice cream, we’re adding naturally fruity flavor to a creamy sugar-free dessert. However, this sherbet creates an even silkier texture with the help of your ice cream maker, along with a keto friendly substitute for fresh oranges. The other key to super soft frozen desserts is the sweetener! Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend is the ideal choice for treats that stay soft and scoopable in the freezer, and it dissolves just like sugar....

I’m a lifelong chocoholic, and chocolate desserts are my absolute favorites. And brownies are basically the ultimate chocolate dessert. So, as you may have guessed, I don’t mess around when it comes to brownies. These vegan brownies are nothing short of amazing. Rich. Thick. So fudgy. They’re amazing on their own, or topped with a scoop of dairy-free vanilla ice cream, or even chocolate ice cream and hot fudge, if you’re really crazy like that....

What Makes This Recipe So Good Rich, thick, sweet sauce and salty, savory, chewy bacon mixed with caramelized onion. What more do you need to know?? The flavors are deep and layered and complex and just all-around incredible.This jam goes well on and with so many things – burgers, pizza, crostini, hashbrown toast, grilled cheese, melted brie, French fries… I could go on and on.Needless to say, this is one of those simple-but-feels-fancy recipes that’s sure to wow your friends and family, especially when you tell them it’s homemade....

If you’re in need of an easy but absolutely delicious crowd pleaser, you’re in luck. These sweet potato bites are perfect for pot luck, awesome for BBQs and make the perfect appetizer. Follow me… Roasted Sweet Potato Bites Think of these as mini edible plates to present your gauc (more on the guac in just a sec). As such, we need them to be able to ‘hold’ the guac. I mean this in the sense of being sturdy enough to physically hold the guac, but also flavoursome enough to hold their own against the guac....

Ah, comfort food. This is the kind of comfort food that’s perfect for fall. When I accepted a review copy of Tal Ronnen’s Crossroads, the publisher suggested I try one of the fall inspired recipes (read, comfort food). A-okay with me. While the book is full of recipes that are perfect for fall (check out the acorn squash ravioli, and definitely check out the lasagna with puttanesca sauce), I opted to go with the sweet potato latkes, because, truth be told, I attempted something like this back in my early days of blogging, and failed miserably....

What Makes This Recipe So Good Inspired by chicken satay, this recipe is rich, creamy, and super satisfying, with layers of complex flavors that compliment each other beautifully. Peanut butter. Lime juice. Coconut milk. Soy sauce. Brown sugar. Red pepper flakes. If you’ve never had Thai peanut chicken before then you’re probably thinking “Mmmmmm, I don’t know about those flavors together”, but BELIEVE ME they’re delectable. It’s honestly a really easy recipe....

Here I have compiled some quick game changing tips, to help you finish with the perfect jacket potato in the oven every single time. All you need is some spuds, an oven and salt/oil.

What Makes This Recipe So Good This method takes our reader-favorite chicken tikka masala recipe and adapts it for the Instant Pot. I’ll admit, it’s not a typical “set it and forget it” Instant Pot recipe, but it’s significantly more convenient than the stovetop + oven method.It’s a smooth, delicate balance of spicy and creamy that you’re going to fall in love with. The caramelization of the aromatics and tomato sauce is an absolute MUST-DO that’ll reward you with a deep, layered, complex richness from your Instant Pot chicken tikka masala....

🌶️ About This Recipe I’ve been making this incredible salsa for well over a decade at this point. In fact, the first time I made it was back in law school (did you know I went to law school?). Back then, 40 Aprons was just a tiny little personal online journal called Legally Eating. It was mainly my attempt at a creative outlet in the midst of the dry, immersive wasteland that is the legal world....

Hey, real quick, got a question. Is it a) really OK, b) acceptable but only in moderation, or, c) socially frowned upon to bathe in the maple butter pooled in this roasted acorn squash? Asking for me, not a friend. Asking for me. Wait, no, bathing in this maple butter is ridiculous! I just want to drink it. I’ve been eating this recipe for the best roasted acorn squash with life-changing maple butter since way before I was making it: it’s actually a family recipe or method I grew up with!...

Egg and Bacon Sandwich resists opening this post with the obvious bacon and egg pun DON’T GO BACON MY HEART – I COULDN’T IF I FREID. There, it’s done. It’s out of my system. No more. 🤣 I know, an egg and bacon sandwich sounds like a pretty dull recipe right? Well I promise you this will be the best darn egg and bacon sandwich you’ll ever eat. Here’s why: Egg in a Hole – An egg tastes 10x more delicious when it’s fried inside toast, you know it makes sense....

Mashed Potato Tuna Patties I’ve tried out a few different versions of tuna cakes and in my opinion using mashed potato is essential. The mash potato not only bulks out the patties, but also helps bind together everything. Plus, who doesn’t love mashed potato?! Leftover Mashed Potato These are perfect for using leftover mash. I recommend using it straight from the fridge so it’s nice and cold/firm. This will help the patties form together....

Udon noodles work great in stir-fries because they’re great for sucking up lots of flavorful sauce. In this recipe I took full advantage of that quality and paired them up with a super savory sesame soy sauce, along with tender mushrooms, pan-fried tofu, and baby bok choy. It’s really simple to throw together and so scrumptious! How It’s Made The following is a detailed photo tutorial on how to make this dish....

Today, I am sharing the recipe for a very easy and tasty Asian-style vegetable soup called veg Manchow soup. It’s made by cooking very finely chopped vegetables in a delicious, slightly hot & spicy broth filled with Asian flavors. The soup is garnished with fried noodles which I enjoy the most in this soup. What is Manchow Soup? Like most people, before you also assume that Manchow soup is a Chinese or Indo-Chinese soup, just by reading its name, let me clarify that the origin of Manchow soup is not confirmed....

As a kid who hated meat from an early age, cream of mushroom soup was always my jam. As an adult, I’m still a big fan of creamy mushroom soups. This vegan mushroom barley soup and this mushroom wild rice soup are two of my favorites. But I’ve yet to a dairy-free version of that classic cream of mushroom soup I loved so much growing up. Until today! Why This Recipe Works Texture....

I never really thought I needed to create and share vegan garlic bread recipe. I’ve been making vegan garlic bread since I was a kid. I had my own recipe, even back then: slather some bread with vegan butter (I called it margarine back then), sprinkle with garlic salt, and broil. Sound like your recipe? It probably sounds like everyone’s recipe. And hey, it’s not bad. It’s vegan by default, assuming the margarine you used was dairy-free....

I have a lot of recipes on this site that feature vegan ricotta cheese in some form or another. From stuffed shells, to lasagna, to pizza, I’ve found a lot of ways to incorporate dairy-free ricotta into my favorite dishes. Each of those recipes uses a slightly different version of vegan ricotta — I tend to season it up based on what I’m using it for. And for that reason I don’t always recommend using the ricotta from one of those recipes in another dish....

I can’t even tell you how happy I am to finally have arrived at the beginning of fall. Unfortunately, it is supposed to be 90° here on Wednesday, but after that the forecast tells me the temperatures will drop and I can finally put on a sweater. I’m so ready. And making this easy vegan butternut pasta is the first thing on my list when it starts to get chilly!...

I wasn’t familiar with sticky toffee pudding until I started blogging and really paying attention to different dishes from around the world. Sticky toffee pudding is a classic British dessert. Here in the states where I live it’s not as common, and we probably would have given it a different name, like sticky toffee cakes. Pudding, to me, is a variation on custard — a creamy dessert that you eat out of a cup with a spoon, like rice pudding, chocolate pudding, or tapioca pudding....

If you are just starting out on keto, be sure to take a look at the keto cheat sheets. What Are Macros? (Macro Meaning) Macros is a shortened term for macronutrients. They are the fat, protein, and carbohydrates that give your food an energy value, and you can find them on nutrition labels. Choosing food with different macro ratios can help you tailor your meals to meet your diet goals....
