Is there such a thing as easy, healthy, tasty pizza? Yes, there is! This recipe lets you satisfy your pizza cravings—and your family’s—in the simplest, healthiest imaginable way.

It’s perfect for anyone following a gluten-free diet, since there’s no wheat-filled crust. And it’s also ideal for low-carbers with nut allergies, since it doesn’t contain any nut- or almond-based crust: succulent, super-healthy zucchini does the job instead.

Last but not least, you can think of this as the healthiest-even deep-dish pizza (!), since you can add a really thick layer of toppings to the low-carb veggie crust.

Hint: You’ll find the video for the recipe under the recipe box.

Bacon and Eggs on a Cloud; With Fried Bacon Slices | Low-Carb, So Simple
Last week, I learned that Eggs on a Cloud is a kinda Instagram hit now — my husband showed me an article in a German online magazine. You know Eggs on a Cloud? Where you place a whole egg yolk on top of stiff-beaten egg whites, looking like the bright-colored yolk is floating on a soft, white cloud? The idea is certainly fascinating, and I immediately got several ideas of how to vary and improve the basic recipe, naturally keeping it still simple.

In this post, you will find my experiments and variations as well as the ultimate, super-scrumptious Bacon and Eggs on a Cloud recipe! You couldn’t imagine how simple this tasty and practically zero-carb dish actually is!

Irresistibly Easy No-Sugar “Nutella” Fudge (Vegan)

Irresistibly Easy No-Sugar Nutella Fudge; Collage | Low-Carb, So Simple

Well, hello, all Nutella lovers! That hazelnutty, chocolatey and sublimely silky spread has millions of fans all over the world. Whole generations have been growing up on Nutella – my husband for example!

Unfortunately, as we know, this popular spread has unhealthy ingredients that are an absolute no-no on a healthy sugar-free low-carb diet. As that baddie — sugar — is the main ingredient, the carb count becomes intolerably high. And when you add all that fat (Nutella contains an ample amount of palm oil), the combination of carbs and fat is pretty toxic. Even the manufacturer claims the palm oil is not hydrogenated; all that sugar is a very legitimate reason to skip the spread if you are concerned with your health — or the health of your loved ones. There is simply no reason to feed any kid Nutella, especially when preparing healthier, better-tasting options is so unbelievably easy!

And now, it’s time to present my newest creation: Irresistibly Easy No-Sugar “Nutella” Fudge.
