No More Holiday Panic!

The Holiday season is almost here, and if you are a low-carber or a ketoer like me you are probably dreading every social even you will have to take part in.

It’s going to be like crossing a mine field, right? It’s the ultimate test of willpower…..and we do not always win.

Do you feel like it’s not fair?! I do!

You are working so hard, trying to be healthy, trying to do the right thing….and then there is a bunch of people who do not care and stuff their faces with pie in front of you!

Gourmet Keto Thanksgiving Stuffing By The Nourished Caveman

3 tips to survive of the holiday season and keto on!

1) Throw a low-carb party! So you are the one in charge and can give the guidelines for what to bring! It could be a fun potluck!

2) Bring a side dish, or a keto dessert so you can always eat turkey or ham, your side dish and/or dessert!

3) Be prepared with lots of delicious recipes that would please the whole family and fit your keto / low carb parameters!! (I will help with that!!)

Gourmet Keto Thanksgiving Stuffing By The Nourished Caveman Bread

Let’s get started with the yum stuff!

This recipe is worth making for the bread alone….probably the best keto bread I ever made!!

As you might know I am very VERY insulin resistant, so I can only have a little of it….but to have that piece of oven warm bread with a good dollop of butter on it….oh it was pure heaven!!

Then, just because we are keto / low carbers does that mean we are not gourmande?? HECK NO!

So move over Epicurious, make room Gourmet Mag, here is a world class recipe for your KETO thanksgiving that you will be proud of.

PS

    Can gelitan be subbed for the protein powder? They wreck havoc on my blood sugar.

    For the bread recipe: If you need to replace the chia flour and psyllium powder with coconut flour and/or flax meal, how much would you use?

      The same amount….and it would be a different recipe! 🙂

    I was skeptical, but decided to try this. It turned out really good. The keto stuffing reminds me of the texture of a cornbread stuffing. I wanted to make it a bit more “southern”, so I substituted cooked and crumbled pork/sage breakfast sausage for the pancetta, and rough chopped pecans for the macadamia nuts. Really whatever you usually add to your regular stuffing should work well. After making the keto bread, I thought that if it was cut into small cubes, then dried in the oven, it would make really good croutons. This is a keeper recipe for me.

    I love this bread for dressing. After drying the bread cubes I pulse in my blender for a finer crumb like my mom used to make. I use pork sausage, onion, garlic, mushrooms and hazelnuts with poultry seasoning. It is delicious and no one even knows it’s low carb unless I tell them! I add 2 T of flax seed powder in place of 2 T of psyllium powder cuz I just don’t like the taste of psyllium.
