Vegan Keto, Eco-Atkins, Pegan, and Low Carb Plant-Based Recipes
The other day, I had a crazy craving for some bibimbap, a Korean rice and veggie dish. The problem I ran into was that I couldn’t seem to find a commercial gochujang sauce that wasn’t loaded with gluten and sugar – and I mean 8-9g…
In my carb-eating days, veggie sushi rolls were one of my favorite things to eat. There’s something about the combination of cucumber, avocado and nori that’s just magical. Eating a grain-free, vegan keto diet can make finding sushi a bit more challenging. While many places…
Sweet breakfast foods are hands-down my favorite category of Things I Like to Eat. Pancakes, waffles, “noatmeal” – you name it, and I would like to order it off of a diner menu or from a bakery. Of course, being both low carb and plant based (as well as gluten free) makes this pretty much impossible, and so like with most things, it’s got to be homemade. You guys have probably figured out that apple cinnamon is one of my favorite flavor combinations, and these low carb vegan apple cinnamon breakfast bars are basically my perfect pairing for a nice hot cup of coffee or tea.

I’ve been trying to get away from buying protein bars because they’re so expensive, and the number of low carb vegan protein bars on the market is woefully small. In fact, there’s only one store anywhere near me that sells a vegan protein bar that…
Olives are one of my favorite snacks, but sometimes I want them in something a little more exciting. This Mediterranean is a low carb vegan take on a super lazy pizza. Is it pizza? Sure isn’t! Does it have echoes of what could be pizza?…
Every time I see someone post their amazing “elevated toast” on Instagram, I get pretty jealous. While I certainly love how I feel when eating low carb, I also really do miss eating breads, and I don’t always want to shell out $8 for a loaf of keto-friendly bread that makes my intestines weep. So, in order to create my own fun toast, I figured I should also make myself some low carb vegan crisp bread. This recipe makes a really hearty flatbread that is reminiscent of Scandinavian crisp bread (knekkebrød in Norway). It’s perfect as a base for lots of toppings, and really hits the spot.

Clearly, there’s something seriously wrong with me, because it’s 10 degrees (Fahrenheit!) outside right now, and yet here I am, making ice cream. But this isn’t just any ice cream – it’s a low carb vegan ice cream! Most recipes I see for vegan ice…
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write up this recipe! If you’ve been in the keto/low carb community for a while now, you’re probably familiar with the term “crack slaw.” Basically, crack slaw is a cooked cabbage slaw, flavored with sriracha and…
Every once in a while you just get a craving, and for some reason, today I got one for sausage – Italian sausage, to be more precise. Now, I don’t know about you, but I don’t have a store near me (or even far from me, really) that sells gluten free vegan sausage. Literally every single vegan sausage I’ve found is basically made entirely out of gluten, with a little soy mixed in for good measure. As someone with Celiac, that wasn’t going to work. So, this morning, I set out to make my own low carb vegan sausage that’s both gluten free and soy free. Not gonna lie, it’s super easy and really tasty. (more…)
Any of you who have been on a low carb or ketogenic diet for a while will likely recognize the phrase “fat bomb.” It’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like – a small treat made of mostly fat to make eating a super low…
