Chicken with Cheesy Cauli and Spinach Mash (Keto)

Chicken with Cheesy Cauli and Spinach Mash Keto

“The delicious cauli-mash in this easy dish is courtesy of my lovely husband who was instructed to prepare dinner one night. I defrosted chicken thighs, then asked him to use up the cauliflower and spinach we had kicking about. What resulted was a beautiful creation! He made a cauli spinach mash, then added grated Parmesan and some of the chicken tray juices. I personally do this without thinking, but I found it quite special that he did this without my knowing. I hope you love this perfectly keto-friendly meal which ticks all the boxes! This happened about a year ago, but I am only creating this post now because I simply never forgot about it. – Monya

Curried Monkfish with Mustard Spinach (Keto)

Curried Monkfish with Mustard Spinach Keto

“Monkfish is a meaty and very satisfying piece of fish. Here, I dust over a generous amount of seasoned curry powder and simply pop it in the oven while I crack on with a buttery spinach. The spinach is cooked with mustard seeds and a little turmeric. This is delicious and almost too easy!” – Monya

Sausage and Creamy Turmeric Spinach Bake (Keto)

Sausage and Creamy Turmeric Spinach Bake Keto

“This was an accidental creation of mine which I then had to recreate for this blog! Dynamite flavours come from the turmeric cream sauce which bake away in cooked spinach and pork sausages. I labelled this low carb and not keto as many sausages aren’t entirely keto-friendly. They often contain potato starch, gluten and several other things we try and steer clear from. However, I would be lying if I said I don’t indulge in delicious porkies once in a while – but when I do, I always opt for Tesco’s Finest Sausages which are 97% pork and come in at only 1.5g per two sausages: not bad. If you like the idea of this recipe, be sure to also check out my Sausage and Cauliflower Bake on this site – its equally lush!” – Monya

Spinach and Pesto Keto Gnocchi

Spinach and Pesto Keto Gnocchi

“You can’t go wrong with a great Homemade Pesto which offers massive flavours. Here, I cooked spinach for a lovely buttery texture, then simply stirred it into Basic Keto Gnocchi. This may seem like a rich meal for two, so stretch it to four as a side dish. Then, halve the macros accordingly. In this recipe, I use “gnocchi” made from almond flour, but if you prefer a nut-free version, I have a fabulous Cheesy Gnocchi in my second book Lazy Keto Kitchen (2021).” – Monya

Creamy Baked Salmon with Spinach and Tomatoes (Keto)

Creamy Baked Salmon with Spinach and Tomatoes Keto

“Funnyman tasted this salmon with spinach bake and said “babes, you don’t get older – you just get better!” Hahaha! I loved that! I am my own worst critic and often remake dishes plenty of times before I write up the recipe and post them here. This lovely dish has such simple, readily-available ingredients. The acidity of the lemon squeezed over at the end is essential, so don’t forget about it. On the subject of tomatoes, here is a great little article on planting and growing cherry tomatoes. UPDATE: Apologies, but I have taken this recipe off the blog because, since posting it, I worked very hard to bring you a new-and-improved version that now features in my cookbook Keto Kitchen. It has proved to be one of the most popular recipes in the book (which doesn’t surprise me – its gorgeous!)” – Monya

One-pan Eggs in Spinach (Keto)

Eggs in Spinach Keto

“This eggs in spinach is a quick, nutritious breakfast-for-two that you can take to the table and tuck into with your loved one. It would also go very well with a slice or two of toasted Quick Keto Chia Bread. Funnyman likes this with a dash of hot sauce drizzled over. You could do the same, but that will depend on how brave you are so early in the day!” – Monya

“Now that you have waxed Fathead Dough (and hopefully tried Fathead Pizzas, why not shake things up a bit and try a ‘calzone’? I decided on a vegetarian filling and used spinach, mushroom and ricotta cheese. This is a very rich dish, so one will easily feed two people with a lovely fresh salad on the side.” – Monya
