Keto Chorizo Shakshuka


Recipe Credit: (https://www.ruled.me/keto-chorizo-shakshuka/)



  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 pound chorizo, ground
  • ½ cup onion, diced
  • 1 large red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • ½ tablespoon chili powder
  • ½ tablespoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt*
  • 1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juice
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 ounces queso fresco, crumbled
  • ¼ cup cilantro, roughly chopped
The Execution

1. Melt the coconut oil in a large cast iron pan or skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook until crumbled, cooked through and browned, about 8 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the pan and set aside.

2. Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the hot pan and sauté until the onions are translucent and starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and spices and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring to combine.

3. Add back the cooked chorizo and diced tomatoes, with the juice. Bring the meat mixture to a simmer and let cook for 15 minutes or until the mixture is thick and the liquid is almost completely reduced.

4. Make 6 wells in the pan with the back of spoon (5 around the edges and one in the middle).

5. Crack one egg into each well.

6. Cover and continue cooking until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to the desired consistency. This should take about 6 minutes for a soft yolk and up to 10 minutes for a fully cooked yolk.

7. Remove the lid and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco and chopped cilantro. Serve.

Keto Chocolate Fat Bombs

(Recipe Credit:  https://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2018/07/23/fat-bombs-recipe-keto/ ) Total Time:  5m Yield:   Depends on shape made Ingredients 1/2 cup nut butter of choice, or coconut butter 1/4 cup cocoa or cacao powder 1/4 cup melted  coconut oil stevia to taste, or 1 tbsp liquid sweetener of choice optional, I like to add 1/8 tsp salt Instructions Stir all ingredients together until smooth. If too dry (depending on nut butter used), add additional coconut oil if needed. Pour into a small container, ice cube trays, or candy molds. Freeze to set. Because coconut oil softens when warm, it’s best to store these in the freezer.
