Did they taste exactly like fries? No! Did these jicama fries do the trick? Yes! For me, consistency is huge and these jicama fries totally mimicked what fries would taste like. Jicama is a bit higher in carbs than radish or turnip. So if you are on a strict keto diet, you may want to use those root vegetables instead but if you are lazy keto/low carb like I am, they fit perfectly into my plan!  Ingredients 2 cups jicama sliced (about 1 small) 2 tablespoons avocado oil 3/4 teaspoon sea salt divided 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon smoked paprika Instructions 1. Peel jicama and slice into french fry pieces. 2. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon sea salt into a medium pot of water. Bring to a boil. 3. Boil jicama fries in boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain in colander. 4. Place drained jicama pieces into a large mixing bowl. Coat with avocado oil, then sprinkle on 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, garlic powder, cum

Made these bad boys for my girlfriend this morning and they were SO stinking good!! I can't believe that these are low carb!  INGREDIENTS 2 Large Slices Keto Bread!  Recipe Here 1 Large Egg 1 tbsp Heavy Cream 1/2 tsp  ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp  vanilla extract Liquid Stevia  Optional(10 drops per recipe makes these mildly sweet) 1 tbsp butter for cooking INSTRUCTIONS If you haven't already, start by baking a loaf of Keto Bread Cut 2 large slices of bread, then cut each slice into 4 french toast sticks. Beat together the egg, heavy cream, cinnamon, vanilla, and optional sweetener. Heat 1 tbsp of ghee in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Dip the sticks of bread into the liquid mixture and then place directly into the hot skillet. (If you want a softer french toast stick, allow the batter to soak into the bread for 5 minutes prior to frying.) Server with butter and sugar-free syrup and dust with cinnamon. Enjoy!

This keto bread recipe that I found over at Keto Connect is a winner!! Good for sandwiches, french toast, croutons, avocado toast...it is so good! INGREDIENTS 1 1/2 Cup  Almond Flour 6 Large eggs Separated 4 tbsp Butter, melted 3 tsp  Baking powder 1/4 tsp  Cream of Tartar   1 pinch  Pink Salt 6 drops  Liquid Stevia  optional INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 375. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Add Cream of Tartar to the whites and beat until soft peaks are achieved. In a food processor combine the egg yolks, 1/3 of the beaten egg whites, melted butter, almond flour, baking powder and salt (Adding 6 drops of liquid stevia to the batter can help reduce the mild egg taste). Mix until combined. This will be a lumpy thick dough until the whites are added. Add the remaining 2/3 of the egg whites and gently process until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix as this is what gives the bread it's volume! Pour mixture into a buttered 8x4 loaf pan. B
