Potted Shrimp on Keto Toast

Potted Shrimp on Keto Toast

“Potted shrimp is brown shrimp set in a flavoured butter. I used ground mace (in place of nutmeg) and added a pinch of cayenne pepper for extra kick! Delicious spread it over slices of toasted Quick Keto Chia Bread. Be sure to remove it from the fridge a while before you enjoy it to make for an easier spread. The Quick Keto Chia Bread is excluded from the macros, as you likely have your favourite low carb bread. However, if you need some inspiration, visit the Breads section on the site – I have plenty of easy ideas there! ” – Monya

Keto Chicken Liver Parfait

“This chicken liver parfait recipe fills 4 ramekins, and the macros indicate these can generously be shared between four people. If you aren’t hosting a dinner-party-for-eight, simply freeze the remaining ramekins like I did. I spread this creamy delight on my Keto Mixed Seed Crackers (as pictured, but not included in macros).” – Monya

Salmon and Cream Cheese Domes (Keto)

Salmon and Cream Cheese Domes Keto

“Need a pretty-looking appetiser? These little domes are simply made using seasoned cream cheese wrapped in smoked salmon. To achieve the cute dome shape, I used clingfilm-lined mini pudding (dariole) moulds. They were then simply tipped upside down before serving. Try these with slices of toasted Quick Chia Keto Bread (not included in macros) for a lovely, fresh appetiser for four people.” – Monya

Keto Garlic Snails (Escargot)

“How could I not feature garlic snails (escargot) on my blog? While many cringe at the thought of eating snails, they were one of my favourite things to order in a restaurant when I was very young. My mom also prepared them often on Saturday nights. Back in South Africa, we could purchase them from the supermarket, but here in England they aren’t so easily available. I need to order them online. I even got the retro snail dishes #NERD. I infused the butter with garlic to avoid the chewing on clumps of garlic, which is a nifty little process to know. That is an optional step. Be sure to mop the butter up with a slice or two of keto bread. I have plenty on the site in the Breads recipe section on this site.” – Monya

Brie Mushrooms with Red Onion Chutney (Keto)

Brie Mushrooms with Red Onion Chutney Keto

“These baked brie mushrooms can be served either as an appetiser, or enjoyed as a light meal with a salad. The red onions are cooked down on a very low heat, and their sweetness balances the oozy Brie just perfectly. The general marrying of the two flavours are worth knowing, even for those that don’t like mushrooms. And, for those that LOVE the idea of a big, black mushroom – do this exact dish and top your bun-less burger with it. You will never consider a bacon and Cheddar topping again!” – Monya
