Ground Beef and Blue Cheese Gratin

July 6, 2025 By elviira 2 Comments

Ground Beef and Blue Cheese Gratin | Low-Carb, So Simple
I’ve got a confession: lately, I’ve been pretty much obsessed with bacon. If you’ve seen my recent recipes, you’d think I can’t cook without it. But hey, even I need a break now and then—surprising, right? So this week, I’m switching things up and making something that doesn’t lean on bacon’s smoky goodness. (Don’t worry, bacon diehards—I’ll drop some ideas at the end for you to sneak it in. I’m not a monster.)

Let’s talk about this Ground Beef and Blue Cheese Gratin. It’s the kind of meal that looks and tastes fancy but takes less effort than finding your keys in the morning. Three ingredients (or four if you add salt), one skillet, one baking dish, and zero stress. Here’s the magic: brown up some beef, heat up a little cream, and then let a generous pile of blue cheese melt right into that simmering cream. Pour that dreamy sauce all over your beef, sprinkle on even more blue cheese, and let the oven work its golden, bubbly magic.

The result? Creamy, beefy, blue cheesy bliss. I’m not kidding when I say this stuff is filling—I ate a third of the dish and was set for the day. It’s like edible hibernation.

This is comfort food for people who want maximum flavor with minimum effort. No chopping, no fussy steps, no endless ingredient lists. Just pure, carnivorous satisfaction. If you’re in the mood for something ridiculously easy, unapologetically rich, and totally bacon-free (for once), you’re in the right place. Let’s get into it!

Pork on Pork on Pork—and a Little Bit of Beef

June 15, 2025 By elviira 2 Comments

Pork On Pork On Pork And A Little Bit Of Beef | Low-Carb, So Simple
Ever had one of those days when you just stare into your fridge, thinking, “You know what? There’s simply not enough pork in my life right now.” No? Just me? Well, prepare to remedy that situation with what I can only describe as a meat lover’s fever dream.

This little gem of a recipe literally popped into my head yesterday morning as I was waking up. I wasn’t even planning to post anything this week—I’ve been up to my eyeballs in tallow-rendering and jerky-making, not to mention creating content for my Finnish followers. It’s been chaos!

And let’s be honest, with Google repeatedly slashing my blog traffic, sometimes I wonder why I bother. Can you believe I had more traffic back in 2012 when I first started than I do now? Ridiculous. Google seems to have it out for keto and carnivore blogs—probably because these diets actually work for healing all sorts of health issues. Heaven forbid Big Pharma and Big Food lose a penny to people getting healthier through diet!

But this recipe idea was too good not to share. So here I am, Google algorithms be damned, bringing you what might be the meatiest meatballs ever conceived. You’re welcome.

Creamy Beef Heart Stew

June 1, 2025 By elviira 4 Comments

Creamy Beef Heart Stew Close-Up | Low-Carb, So Simple
So here’s the deal—we’re cooking a beef heart today. Yes, the actual heart. Don’t click away just yet because this might be the most delicious thing you’ll make all month.

This recipe is actually a stripped-down version of one I published years ago in one of my Finnish keto cookbooks. Since embracing the carnivore lifestyle, I’ve simplified it to its purest form—meat, cream, salt. That’s it.

My son, who’s always been an enthusiastic meat-eater, loved the original keto version when he was little. When I served him this carnivore edition, he gave it two enthusiastic thumbs up between bites. Nothing makes me happier than watching him enjoy real, nutrient-dense food.

As for me? I’m completely hooked on this dish. It’s incredibly rich and satisfying, with a depth of flavor you wouldn’t expect from just three ingredients. The heart becomes tender after slow cooking, and when combined with reduced cream, it creates a downright luxurious sauce.

Stick around after the recipe for some optional seasoning suggestions and variations, plus the original recipe from my Finnish cookbook if you’re curious about the keto version.

Enough chit-chat—I’m pouring my heart out into this recipe, and it’s about time you took it!
