keto friendly – The Keto Guru

Now hear me out….. You can really use cauliflower in place of a baked potato. I know this as I’ve been doing it for 3 years now on keto. This actually is better than having a potato, minus all the carbs. You can literally put whatever you want on this thing. This is just a quick reference to what I do since I get asked all the time about my faux potato!

Ingredients:

1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
Grass fed Butter (ok, it’s optional but you’re crazy if you don’t want butter! )
Any topping of choice
- Sour cream
- Bacon crumbles
- Sugar free BBQ sauce
- Guacamole
- Natural shredded cheese
- Onions
- Pickles
- Jalepeno

Protien of choice
- I smoke meat and vacuum seal for fake potato night!
- This is pulled pork and chopped brisket

Instructions:

Take your cut up cauli and place in a large microwave safe bowl. Cover with saran wrap. Do not put any water, seasoning or oil. The cauliflower will steam itself inside the bowl covered. Microwave for 8 minutes. If it’s not tender enough for you, microwave some more in 1 minute incriminates. Use extreem caution removing the siran wrap, the steam will burn you!

Add cauli to your plate, add your butter and allow to melt.

Start pilling on the toppings you like. Finish off with a little salt and pepper. Plate and enjoy! This is probably one of the most simple, tasty, easy recipes you will find! Enjoy

This is a close companion to the crack chicken recipe I have posted. The difference here is a little more spice and some cauliflower rice/pears. It’s so super simple since it cooks in the crock pot all day. Just come home, remove the lid, shred the chicken, and enjoy. There are so many yummy flavors in this dish!

This soup paired very good with our Keto Cornbread. You can get that recipe here –>> https://justaketoguru.wordpress.com/2020/12/03/keto-cornbread/

Ingredients:

2 large split chicken breasts
2tbs heavy cream
15-20 cherry tomato’s
1 can (4.5oz) green chiles
1 8oz block cream cheese cubed
1.5 cup chicken broth
1 (16oz) bag of cauliflower pears
Seasonings
- 1.5tsp chili powder
- 1tsp salt
- 1tsp dry parsley
- 1tsp cumin
- 1/2tsp garlic powder
- 1/2tsp onion powder
- 1/2tsp pepper

Instructions:

In your crock pot, add all of your ingredients. There’s no need to mix or stir at all.

Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. 30 to 45 minutes before serving, add your cauliflower pears. They don’t need long to cook. Once ready to serve, shred the chicken using a shredder or 2 forks. Don’t worry, it will fall apart!
