ABC Meatballs | Low-Carb, So Simple

I admit it, I’m not a genius — but this dish sure is! Making a healthy dinner is as easy as ABC — literally. You need only 5 ingredients and a few minutes to prepare this delicious, family-friendly meal.

These meatballs check all the boxes. First of all, they’re full of taste. Rich avocado provides a creamy texture and good fats; ground beef is a great source of protein; and Cajun seasoning adds a sharp kick that complements the mellow avocado and acts as an all-around flavor enhancer. And no dish would be complete without bacon, right?!

You can use other flavorful seasonings apart from Cajun (whether they start with the letter C or not!) Take a look at my experiments with different seasonings in this post and choose your favorite ones. And there are more tips for variations at the end of the post, as always.

Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise – Herbed Almond and Parmesan Crusted Fish

By 6 Comments

Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise – Herbed Almond and Parmesan Crusted Fish | Low-Carb, So Simple
When I was visiting my German boyfriend (now my husband!) when he still lived in Germany over 10 years ago, I often bought him a frozen ready meal called Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise. It was so convenient; I’d just pop it in the oven and he’d gulp it down with gusto, because Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise is one of those classic German comfort foods. (Basically, it’s just Alaskan pollock crusted with a crunchy, buttery herbed crust.) And it really overdelivered: all you had to do was grab the package from the supermarket’s freezer, throw it into the oven at home, and a hearty, heavenly-tasting meal would be ready in no time.

But the commercial version is full of harmful ingredients, like wheat flour, glucose, rapeseed oil, rice starch, dehydrated glucose syrup, and sugar. They’re definitely not suitable ingredients for a keto lifestyle—or for any other type of healthy lifestyle, for that matter!

Ten years ago I was vegetarian, but nowadays I eat fish and I started missing this tasty and convenient comfort food, so I developed my own clean, keto-friendly version. Not only is it much healthier than the store-bought version, it tastes even better!
