The weather is still warm and beautiful, so I have a good reason to publish another ice cream recipe. This rich and flavorful chilly treat is guaranteed to satisfy your sweet cravings without any insulin rush. The luscious combination of chocolate and cherry is familiar from the Black Forest cake. This time as ice cream, vegan and low-carb. What else can you ask for?

It’s hard to believe that something this delicious is so simple, and vegan! I usually use tons of organic dairy products, especially heavy cream, but lately I’ve been into coconut milk because of its smooth and naturally sweet flavor.
This succulent dessert — or breakfast — is topped with delicious coconut milk sauce with a hint of vanilla. The sauce consists of a mere two ingredients! Even better, this simple fruit salad is surprisingly low in carbs.

Creamy Crispy Curry Cabbage — CCCC. Or 4C. Four C-sons. Don’t let the bad jokes prevent you from trying this delicious side dish — it’s a real delish! Serve it with grass-fed chicken for a full meal, or for a little hunger just like that accompanied with some gluten-free low-carb bread and some fresh veggies. Don’t forget to finish the creamy meal with something creamy too, try for example some instant ice cream, or while you are preparing and eating this dish, let the ice cream maker churn some delicious low-carb strawberry ice cream. Yum!

I bake over and over again these gluten-free, sugar-free low-carb chocolate mini muffins. Usually baked goods made with coconut flour get rock hard when stored, but these muffins stay soft and moist even for few days in a room temperature. I made a lot of experiments until I was satisfied, and now I’m happy to share my best results with you. Here you are, hope you like this recipe as much as I and my family do!

Here is my favorite summertime drink. Most probably this is a combination of something old, something new, something borrowed and something — well, not blue but pale yellow. All told, it’s simple and wonderfully refreshing in a hot summer day — or night. The weather has been pretty warm for a couple of weeks, so I have had a good reason to gulp down these and fine-tune and test the recipe.

When making experiments with my 1-2-3 Bread I once brushed the loaf generously with extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkled with unrefined sea salt. The crust was crunchy and deliciously salty. That gave me an idea to try out crackers with the same method — almond flour and eggs, brushed with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled salt on top.
After few attempts I found the best ratio between almond flour and eggs. Then adding olive oil and salt wasn’t much of rocket science. The result: simple but delicious, very very addictive crackers. Easy to modify as well, of course.

My husband likes chicken. One of his favorite dishes is chicken curry with vegetables. I’ve made it so many times that this time I wanted to try something different. Something juicy with a subtle bite. When thinking of juicy, orange with its gentle fruitiness goes perfectly with chicken. A piquant touch of ginger gives the bite. I wanted to tie the flavors with something creamy, and sour cream seemed to work well giving its freshly sour note. My husband loved the dish and encouraged me to publish the recipe. Hope you like this as well!

I don’t remember how many experiments were needed that I was satisfied with this recipe. I just can say many, and maybe some more. All I wanted was a really simple recipe for easy gluten-free low-carb bread made from ingredients you can find from almost every grocery store, or at least every health food store. A bread, which is easy to vary and makes a nice base for sweet and savory toppings alike.
Finding the best ratio between these simplest ingredients took looong time. Luckily my toddler and my husband loved most of the results, so did my parents whenever they happened to visit us and I was in the mood for baking (well, I’m always in the mood for baking…) I bet you’ll like this simpler than simple recipe, so enjoy!

Last week I was fancying rich and creamy pudding. Vanilla pudding would have been too — well, vanilla. Chocolate pudding could have been a nice option, but I wanted something a bit more full-flavored so I ended up with mocha pudding. You can easily modify this versatile delicacy to plain vanilla or something more interesting. I’ll give some ideas in the end of this post.

I had never made lemon curd before since I’m not that big fan of lemon flavor. The idea of simple low-carb lemon curd was however so tempting, that I wanted to try and develop it. Many lemon curd recipes are quite complicated. Separating eggs, grating some lemon zest, melting the butter, using a double boiler, … I wanted something simple and easy. I think I reached my goal, at least I immediately fell in love with this low-carb lemon curd and I wasn’t even a fan of lemon flavor before! I hope you like it as well.
