Are you wondering what this secret ingredient is? Whey protein powder! And why is the best low carb chicken parmesan recipe made with grass-fed whey protein powder? It’s perfect for dredging! It is finer than most keto friendly flours (as much as I love my keto friendly flours!), making it ideal. It’s pretty common in breaded chicken recipes to dredge them in flour first, which makes the breading stick better....
🧀 What Makes This Recipe So Good All the rich, cheesy goodness of traditional mac and cheese, with a fraction of the carbs!

Did you hate Brussels sprouts growing up? I find most people didn’t have Brussels sprouts prepared properly when they were growing up. Boiled Brussels sprouts can totally ruin them for you! Roasted or lightly sautéed sprouts are the way to go. For this recipe I used sautéed sprouts, much like I did in this easy Brussels sprout side dish. I added a light coconut milk sauce, which worked really well in my vegan pasta primavera....
Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for lemon garlic marinated chicken, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. Chicken – I used boneless skinless chicken breasts (white meat), but if you prefer dark meat, you can easily make lemon garlic chicken thighs using boneless skinless chicken thighs instead. You can also use the same marinade for pan fried bone-in chicken thighs, whole chicken (use baking instructions from my spatchcock chicken or crispy air fryer whole chicken), or chicken wings (or try my baked lemon pepper wings instead)....

When I was growing up, my mom would make mini cheesecakes with vanilla wafer crusts. You’d plunk a cookie into the bottom of your muffin tin and have an instant crust! I got it in my head that I wanted to use that idea to make mini vegan pumpkin cheesecakes, but using gingersnap cookies instead of vanilla wafers, since the flavor of gingersnaps goes much better with pumpkin cheesecake. It worked perfect!...
Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my baked chicken thighs recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. Chicken Thighs: I use bone-in skin-on chicken thighs for this recipe, because… hi, crispy skin? Make sure to thaw them first if they are frozen. My method here won’t work with boneless chicken thighs, sorry. If you want to use boneless ones, try my recipes for balsamic chicken, garlic chicken thighs, or Mediterranean chicken instead....
I love this spicy aromatic paste, as it adds an insane flavor punch to my meat and fish marinades. A spoonful of this in any soup or stew enhances its taste tenfold. I have also added a dollop of Harissa on my roasted vegetables and enjoyed them till my eyes watered and sweat beaded out on my forehead. Of course, you can tone down the heat by adjusting how much Harissa paste you add, but what can I say, I like it hot!...

Ah, pesto. Pesto is one of my favorite things in the whole world. But alas, pesto, by default, isn’t vegan. Traditional pesto is made with Parmesan cheese, in case you didn’t know. There are a few vegan brands out there, but I can’t always find them at the store. And that makes life tough when you LOVE pesto as much as I do. So I make it myself. The good news is that that’s pretty easy to do!...
This is hands down my all time favourite pasty. For my UK readers, this is like the cheese and onion pasty you get from Greggs, but so much better. Am I allowed to say that? Who knows. Who cares. It’s true 😋 Cheese and Onion Pasty Filling First things first, I am aware this is by no means a traditional pasty. Cheese and onion ‘bake’ or ‘slice’ is probably more appropriate....
These protein powder pancakes don’t have as much protein as my protein waffles, but they still have plenty — 18 grams per serving (more than protein ice cream)!

The BEST Sausage Casserole! I mean, in my humble opinion of course. I’ve tried a few different sausage casseroles in my time and they tend to be more down the minimalistic, gravy style. Often underwhelming. Whilst developing this recipe I was incredibly conscious of packing in bold hearty flavours which resulted in this rich and smoky sauce. Here’s why I know you’ll love it: No Fuss – All in one pot with minimum prep....
