Top 3 Keto Recipes for Everyone to Enjoy

Keto has been one of the biggest trends that have sparked the interest of millions, but what is keto? Keto, or ketogenic, is a diet where you eat low-carb high-fat meals with the purpose of helping you burn fat more effectively than regular diets. I know when people think about diets they think they’ll starve themselves but honestly that’s not the case on the Keto diet. It’s even become a lifestyle for some people. They chose this diet to feel good about their health, not to fit an image of becoming skinny or being fat. Toss the scale and let’s enjoy some good food that’s also good for you! 

Keto Chicken Enchilada Bowl

Ingredients needed:

2 tablespoons of Kelapo Coconut Oil

1 lb of chicken thighs (boneless and skinless)

¾ cup of red enchilada sauce

¼ cup of water

¼ cup of chopped onion

1 can of diced green chiles

Toppings

1 avocado (diced)

1 cup of shredded cheese

¼ cup of pickled jalapenos (chopped)

½ cup of sour cream

1 Roma tomato (chopped)

Place the Kelapo Coconut Oil in the pot over medium heat until it melts. Once it’s hot, sear the chicken thighs until they’re lightly brown on each side. In that same pot, add the enchilada sauce, water, chopped onions, and green chiles. Cook it on low heat for about 25 minutes with the lid on. Make sure the chicken has cooked through before taking it off the heat. Once the chicken thighs are ready, place on a plate to cool for about 2 to 3 minutes and then chop into bite-sized pieces. Place the chicken bites back in the pot, stir and let it cook for an additional 10 to 12 minutes, or until the sauce reduces a little. Do not place the lid back on the pot. Once the chicken is ready, serve in a bowl and add the toppings. You can add cauliflower rice!

Baked Avocado Eggs

So this recipe from Tasty actually has multiple combinations! You can pick and choose what you want as toppings but essentially it’s an egg inside an avocado! It’s perfect for a simple and quick breakfast. I made a couple of changes to the original recipe but feel free to visit the link if you’d like to watch the video.

Ingredients needed:

2 avocados

4 eggs

Salt (to taste)

Pepper (to taste)

Kelapo Coconut Oil Non-Stick Cooking Spray

Bacon bits

Shredded cheddar cheese

Red bell pepper (chopped)

Yellow bell pepper (chopped)

Cherry tomato (quartered)

Fresh basil (chopped)

First, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Take both avocados and slice them in half carefully removing the pits. Grease the baking sheet with Kelapo Coconut Oil Spray and place each half on the sheet. With a spoon, scoop out some of the avocados to make room for the egg. Crack each egg and place inside of the hole. Season each one with salt and pepper. Top the first one with cheddar cheese and bacon bits. Top the next one with cheddar cheese and chopped red and yellow bell peppers. Top the last one with cherry tomatoes. I like to always keep an original with no toppings so leave that last one as is. Pop them all in the oven and bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until the yolk is at the desired consistency. Once they’re out the oven, top the tomato avocado with fresh basil and enjoy!

Steak Fajita Roll-Ups

Ingredients needed:

1 lb. sirloin tip steak (thinly sliced)

1 tablespoon of olive oil (divided)

1 red bell pepper

1 green bell pepper

1 yellow bell pepper

1 large yellow onion (sliced)

1 lime (juiced)

Fresh parsley (chopped)

Fajita Seasoning

1 teaspoon of chili powder

1 teaspoon of paprika

1 teaspoon of garlic powder

1 teaspoon of cumin

½ teaspoon of dried oregano

1 teaspoon of sea salt

¼ of fresh ground pepper

First thing’s first, get your seasoning prepared. In a small bowl, combine all the herbs and spices together. Next, season all the steak slices. Make sure you season both sides. Chop all the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Heat the skillet on medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the olive oil heats up, place all the veggies on the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes. Place the veggies aside and let them cool. Once cooled, top each slice with the veggies and roll it up. Secure the end with a toothpick. Do this until you’re out of veggies or steak. Add the remaining olive oil to the same skillet and place the steak roll-ups on it. Cook until the steak is cooked to the desired consistency. I recommend no more than 5 minutes, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Once they’re ready, get rid of the toothpick and sprinkle the lime juice and fresh parsley. This dish can be enjoyed with guacamole or even sour cream!
