Keto Tuna Croquettes

I'm a big tuna fan and a big fan of the keto diet as well. It has changed my life. So here you have my own personal recipe that my husband didn't even notice wasn't the regular.

4 cans tuna in water (8 oz)
2 large eggs
1/2 small onion diced
Almond flour
Salt, pepper, and cajun seasoning to taste

Drain tuna as much as possible. I even squeeze it out in my hands. Put in a medium sized bowl. Add eggs, onion, and seasonings to taste. Mix well. Add enough almond flour that it will hold form when squeezed together. I used about 1/4 cup. Prepare a small bowl of almond flour for dipping. Heat up a skillet with about 1/8 inch oil in the pan (I used canola). Make patties the size you prefer. I made 3 toddler sized and 9 adult sized ones. After you make each patty, coat well with almond flour by dipping into the bowl. Brown on each side. Drain on papertowel.

I paired with baked broccoli that had heather salt, butter, and olive oil on it. It was a delicious meal!

Keto desserts

So I decided to try the keto diet and it is really working for me. I feel amazing and the pounds are dropping off. I am well known for being good in the kitchen and decided to make my own chocolate dessert. So I decided to share it since everyone always needs more keto desserts!

Keto Chocolate Mousse for 1

1 oz whipping cream
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 tsp sweetener (I used pyure)
Dash of salt
1 oz cream cheese
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp sour cream

Method:
Beat whipping cream, vanilla, salt, and sweetener until stiff. Add all other ingredients and mix until smooth.

I used a single beater on a hand mixer and mixed in my glass measuring cup in case you need a suggestion of how to make this happen in such a small amount. I also could only eat about half because it was so rich!

Enjoy!

Keto Alfredo

Another of my own Keto diet recipes. This one is going to be served with chicken and green peas. For my non-keto family there will be noodles. I will probably put a little cauliflower rice with mine or eat it plain.

2 oz cream cheese
3/4 cup Italian cheese blend
1/2 whipping cream
2 tbsp butter
2 tsp italian seasoning
1/8 tsp rosemary
1/8 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp parsley

Method:

On very low heat, add all ingredients except cheese and stir regularly until melted and smooth. Add cheese and stir until melted. Add to chicken, beef, anything you wish!
