Keto pizza night!

I had a hankering for a chilled out evening on Thursday as I was off on Friday so I made keto pizza!

Here's the recipe I followed from Diet Doctor

It was a big success with both Ciaran and I agreeing that it tasted really good. 

I doubled the recipe so made two - guess it will be pizza night again tonight!!

I used Janet's Pizza Sauce (available in Supervalu) for the pizza and topped with both cheddar & mozzarella cheese along with pepperoni, bacon & chicken.

This is the almond flour that I used - almond flour is pretty much ground almonds.

When you are buying your almond flour be sure and do a good price comparison.  One of these ground almonds was €9.95 per kg while the other was a whopping €32.90 per kg!!!

Guess which one I bought!

Back on the Keto train!

After the excesses of Christmas I am back eating Keto.

I got straight back in to making Keto bread which is beyond easy to make. Basically you just mix up the ingredients in a bowl and then bung it in a tin and in to the oven for 45 mins.

The ingredients for this Keto Bread are:

Half cup coconut flour

Half tsp baking powder

6 eggs

Half cup melted butter

Some salt to taste

And then I add chili flakes too!

I've been making the tastiest tuna melts for dinner on this bread. I layer avocado, tuna & mayo and then melt cheese on top. Delicious!

But personally I think this bread is best toasted in the oven and then slathered with Kerrygold butter.

So breakfast this morning I had Nespresso coffee with cream and then some Greek yoghurt with added cream.

 My new find is this Greek yoghurt from the Tesco Finest range. It's delicious! It's been strained so it is really thick and creamy. Previously I enjoyed the Lidl Greek yoghurt but this is my new favourite.

I like to add cream to my yoghurt. It adds fat but it also takes down the sharper taste of the yoghurt if it is not quite to your taste.

I feel so much better eating this way. Not eating sugar gives me more control over my eating and stops me acting like a Sugar Monster!!
