Emergency Bread (Quick Microwave Loaf)
So you have surprise guests on their way over and nothing good to serve them. Or your kids come home from school hungry and all there is in the fridge is the light—and an echo. Okay, maybe you have a couple of low-carb cookies left in that jar hidden in the back corner of your pantry, but those are cold comfort. What to do?
No worries! Just whip up this quick and easy bread and you can serve delicious sandwiches, garlic bread, bruschetta, croutons—you name it—to your guests and family in mere minutes!
Size matters here. If you ever need a slightly bigger keto bread than just a mug bread, and need it in a hurry but don’t want to turn on the oven, this bread is the perfect solution. You can make your slices as thin or as thick as you want: it’ll hold together well, but it’s still fluffy with a “bready” mouthfeel.

Green and Crunchy Shirataki Rice Salad
If you’re following a low-carb or keto diet, shirataki products are your best friends. Since they’re so low in calories and carbs, these wonder products are often used in main dishes that are served warm—as a replacement for traditional pasta, for example—as well as in warm side dishes. But shirataki products also suit cold salads perfectly, as you’ll see in this recipe for my Green and Crunchy Shirataki Rice Salad.
This recipe is also a very good example of how veggies can be extremely low in carbs. You can eat a lot of them, but you won’t consume a significant amount of calories or carbs in the process! Even better, green veggies are full of nutrients that do great things for your body and your mind.
Serve this crunchy, delicious salad as a side for chicken, meat or fish. And don’t forget to drizzle it with plenty of olive oil- and vinegar-based dressing, or healthy homemade mayo!
