Keto Game-Day Recipes

Round-Up

Keto Super Bowl Recipes Pinterest Collage

No matter if you are sitting down to watch a College football game or Wimbledon, The Olympic Women’s Gymnastics Final or Game 7 of the Stanley Cup – Whether it’s LeBron James and Steph Curry facing off or the Red Sox and the Yankees going head to head for the AL East Pennant. One thing is constant, sports are better enjoyed with snacks.

Ready in just minutes with only 3 ingredients (minus pantry staples), it’s a condiment you’ll want to have on hand at all times!⁠⁠One of our favorite salsas has always been the taqueria-style jalapeño sauce that’s sometimes served with street-style tacos at your local Mexican restaurant. It’s richer than a salsa fresca or pico de gallo and is super creamy from the cooked jalapeños. We love the richness of it and it goes so well with so many things. The recipe can be found via the link in our bio 😉 ⁠⁠#vegan #keto #ketoaf #lowcarblife #pcos #healtheating #plantbased #recipe #cooking

We're obsessed with a few grilled recipes right now and one of them is our Charred Cabbage Salad! If you're plant-based, you can simply leave out the bacon, it's still smoky and the absolute best low-carb side dish. Grab the recipe link in our bio!⁠⁠#keto #grilledrecipe #lowcarb #recipe
Wednesdays are for cake...well, and every other da Wednesdays are for cake...well, and every other day of the week too 😛 This Keto Mocha Chocolate Cake is an absolute dream!

These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally featured in our cookbook and now that Cast Iron Keto is focused on plant-based + low-carb recipes, we thought it deserved a permanent place on the website.⁠⁠If you have our cookbook, have you tried this recipe out of the Meatless Monday chapter? If not, we hope you do, even if you’re more omnivore than plant-based. Why? Because they are simply delicious!⁠⁠The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠⁠The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect.

We are! 🍄 We especially love wild mushrooms but this easy meal of Balsamic Mushrooms with Herbed Veggie Mash is great with your run-of-the-mill creminis which are easy to find at any grocery store. If you have access to other mushroom varieties, we love Maitake in this recipe too.⁠⁠The veggie mash is basically our Keto Mashed Cauliflower, we adore this recipe and use it for so many things. It really is perfection. Even if you’re not usually a fan of cauliflower, you’ll love it. And, yes, we know that’s what all the food bloggers say but we promise it’s true!⁠⁠Obviously, this recipe is pretty low-calorie so if you’re wanting to bump it up a bit, try serving this as a side with some protein. Tempeh and tofu are the obvious choices for plant-based folks or for omnivores, chicken or steak would be our go-to’s. If you serve this as a main or a side, either way, we bet you’ll love it!⁠⁠Grab the recipe link in our bio!⁠⁠#ketorecipe #plantbasedketo #lowcarbvegan #veganrecipe
With the world in chaos, it's so hard to stay focu With the world in chaos, it's so hard to stay focused. Do you feel the same? With our neighborhood seeing multiple crimes from break-ins, a kidnapping, and carjackings in the past week, the heartbreaking situation in Ukraine, Texas's ambivalence towards human rights, and the ongoing pandemic, times are bleak. But there's also beauty and comfort. For us, beauty was found in a walk around our neighborhood admiring the blooming trees ready for spring (swipe for photos), and comfort found in nourishing meals that feed our bodies as well as our souls. If you missed our new recipe last week, we shared this vegetable soup from our cookbook. It's loaded with veggies and is super comforting to us, reminding us of the vegetable soup we ate as kids, maybe it will be comforting to you too. Our thoughts are with humanity as a whole, may we remember that we're all the same and we all deserve peace.
