Low-Carb Halloween

How to Have a Fun & Healthy Low-Carb Halloween – CarbSmart Podcast Episode 21

Dana Carpender 887

Recently, on a website I frequent, there was a discussion of Halloween plans. There I first encountered the concept of "trunk-or-treat," a Halloween event that is apparently gaining popularity across the country. People dress their kids up in costumes, pack candy in their cars, and go to a predesignated parking lot. There the children run from car to car, collecting candy.

Keto Savory Low-Carb Anchovy & Olive Crackers Recipe

Dana Carpender 1,123

Keto Low-Carb Anchovy & Olive Crackers started with a recipe I saw in a Spanish cookbook. I wasn't going to use wheat flour, of course, but the flavor combination seemed interesting -- and it is!

Dana Carpender 4,885

Of all the things people miss when they start eating low-carb/keto, perhaps the biggest gap is crunchy snacks. So when I saw InnoFoods Keto Crackers, and gluten-free Keto Crackers at that, at my local Aldi, I figured, “What the heck? Try ‘em.”

Low-Carb Chili Lime Pumpkin Recipe

Dana Carpender 1,144

Do you know how much I love you guys? I love you so much that when I discovered that my Mastercook program had somehow eaten this recipe, I looked it up in 1001 Low-Carb Recipes and typed it all in again. This is a little carby, but so unusual, delicious, and seasonally appropriate that I wanted to get it to you while the little sugar pumpkins are still in the grocery stores. This would make a fine side dish with simple, warmed-up leftover turkey.

I have come up with a few I enjoy tremendously, and thought I would share.

Keto Low-Carb Mixed Veggie Stuffed Burgers on the Plate

Keto Low-Carb Mixed Veggie Stuffed Burgers Recipe

Amy Dungan 890

This Low-Carb Mixed Veggie Stuffed Burgers is a way to sneak a few veggies into that special someone who may dislike them (like kids... or your spouse). Don't let the name fool you - while not stuffed to the brim, you do notice the nice mix of flavors without it overpowering the burger. When I had my hubby try this, his reply was “ Oh yeah! Mmmmmm!” Translated, that's “Heck ya! Gimme More!” in hubby speak.
