This creamy Keto vanilla BULLETPROOF® coffee recipe is rich in fats, frothy plant-based milk, and a hint of sweet vanilla. This Keto vanilla butter coffee makes a great fat-fueled breakfast option to kickstart your day. Alternatively, this is perfect served with a slice of low-carb cake as an afternoon treat! ### What ingredients are in this Keto vanilla butter latte? This Keto vanilla BULLETPROOF® coffee is prepared with hot almond milk infused with sweet vanilla extract. The milk is then blended with instant coffee and a hearty helping of unsalted butter, before being blitzed until super frothy! We have used a handheld stick blender to froth and blend our Keto coffee, however, you may use a freestanding blender for this if preferred. ### Here are some tips to make Keto vanilla butter coffee? This Keto BULLETPROOF® coffee provides a generous serving of fats from unsalted butter. If preferred you may swap the butter for coconut oil or BULLETPROOF® brain octane oil (MCT Oil) or even a blend of fats. You may also swap the erythritol for your preference in low-carb sweetener or omit it entirely if desired. Please be sure to adjust your macros for any changes made. ### Can you use freshly brewed coffee in this Keto recipe? While this recipe calls for instant coffee, you can definitely substitute it for espresso or freshly brewed coffee, just make sure its strong.

If you are looking for a quick and easy recipe for your busy weeknights, then you should end your search here. This Keto steak fajita recipe is tangy, juicy, and slightly spicy. It requires 10 minutes of active prep time and another 10 minutes of cooking. You can prepare all the elements the night before and have dinner ready in no time. The steak is taken to the next level by marinating it in chili powder, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin powder, and olive oil. You can let it marinate for as little as 30 minutes, or ideally, overnight. This leaves the steak juicy, tender, and highly flavorful. Most Keto steak fajitas are cooked on the pan or grill, while this recipe uses an unconventional method. The foil pack method is an easy, fast, and fuss-free way for cooking Keto fajitas. First, you must preheat your oven to the highest setting, at least 425 Fahrenheit. Then, you must portion out the seasoned vegetables into the center of two 12”x12” pieces of foil, and top them with the marinated steak. Tightly wrap the foil around the steak and vegetables and bake for 6-8 minutes, depending on how you like your steak. ### What can you serve this fajita with? Some tasty toppings include sliced avocado, guacamole, sour cream, fresh herbs, and lemon/lime juice. All these options complement the steak fajita flavors and add freshness. For sides, you can serve this dish with cauliflower rice, steamed broccoli, or Keto tortillas. ### Are fajitas Keto? Not all fajita recipes are Keto-friendly, but this one is. This chili lime steak fajita contains only 4g of net carbs per serving but carries tons of flavor. The quantities of the onions and peppers used are enough to shine through without sabotaging your daily carb allowance.

This delicious Keto smoothie is loaded with fats and flavor and is perfectly smooth and creamy. Our simple low-carb smoothie is prepared with coconut cream, almond milk, smooth almond butter, warming ginger, unsweetened cocoa powder, a little sugar-free sweetener, and a touch of orange extract. This sweet Keto beverage is perfectly served as a satiating breakfast or as a daytime treat! ### What kind of coconut cream should you use? We have used canned coconut milk, typically used for cooking, in this low-carb smoothie recipe. The coconut milk should be refrigerated so that the cream on the top of the milk is set and chilled. The solidified milk at the top of the can gives you the ‘cream’ from the coconut, perfect for adding fats and thickness to your Keto smoothie. Ensuring the milk is chilled not only helps the cream stay firm but also makes your smoothie more refreshing! ### Can you use fresh orange juice? We have used half a teaspoon of orange extract to flavor our Keto chocolate smoothie. If preferred, you may use some fresh orange juice in its place. As the fresh juice won’t be as intense in flavor, you will need to use more - up to a tablespoon or as desired to taste. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe. ### What is the best chocolate to use for this Keto drink? To limit the number of carbs and keep this recipe Keto-friendly, we are using cocoa powder. While you can use a sugar-free chocolate bar to make this Keto beverage, it usually contains more carbs. Using a chocolate bar will also increase the preparation time since you must melt it.

This Keto Morrocan Curry Chicken Sheet Tray dinner is full of delicious flavors! The tender chicken thighs are coated with salt and curry powder. Cauliflower florets, zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion are tossed in olive oil, kosher salt, and garlic powder and dressed around the curry chicken thighs. Since the chicken thighs take longer to cook than vegetables, they are cut into larger pieces, so they don’t get overcooked. The entire dish is decorated with chopped cilantro as it comes out of the oven and is served immediately. This low carb dinner recipe is a great sheet tray dinner with all the protein and vegetables you need. ### Can I use other cuts of chicken? Yes, you can use other cuts of chicken like drumsticks or wings. You will only need to change the size of the vegetables. Since drumsticks or wings take a shorter amount of time to cook, the vegetables will need to be cut into smaller pieces to cook at the same rate as the cuts of chicken meat. ### What can I use if I don't have a nonstick baking sheet? If you do not have a nonstick baking sheet, you can line a regular rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. ### Serving suggestion Feel free to serve Keto Morrocan Curry Chicken with a slice of Keto Lemon Cheesecake as dessert https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-lemon-cheesecake. *Note* Please leave the thighs bone-in for more flavor.

Peanut butter is delicious but healthier for you is this Salted Pistachio Butter! Shelled pistachios are blended with coconut oil in a food processor until it turns into creamy nut butter. The result is delicious! If you love pistachios, you will love this pistachio nut butter that can be spread onto Keto bread, celery sticks, Keto crackers, and more. ### The butter is not sweet. Can I add sweetness? Yes, the store-bought pistachios’ roast is quite dark, so you may want to add a sweetener of choice to balance the flavors. Please use as much sweetener as you would like to. Add a little sweetener at first and continue to taste, adding more sweetener until the flavor reaches your desired taste. If you follow a more Keto Paleo approach, feel free to add coconut nectar or honey. ### What kind of pistachios should I use? Please use shelled, roasted pistachios. ### How do I store finished pistachio butter? Finished pistachio butter can be stored at room temperature. ### Serving suggestion Feel free to serve this with hot Keto bread rolls https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-bread-rolls.

Store-bought versions may contain added fillers and sugars that are not Keto-friendly, but our low carb dressing is so quick to prepare there’s no need to reach for shop-bought again! Our quick and easy Keto dressing combines natural yogurt, mayonnaise, a hint of lemon, a touch of garlic and tangy blue cheese. The ingredients are mixed together until creamy, creating a delicious and pourable dressing. ### Serving Suggestions This thick and creamy dressing is versatile in its uses. The dressing can be thinned as desired, perfect for drizzling over your favorite Keto salads. Alternatively, you can keep the dressing slightly thicker, perfect served with meats. We love to pair our blue cheese dressing with Keto burgers. It is also delicious added to salads with crispy bacon.
