These Keto savory muffins are full of cheesy goodness, and the zucchini adds extra flavor and moisture. They taste great as a low-carb snack or side dish.
Ingredients: 2 cups almond flour. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 1 cup shredded zucchini. 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese. 3 eggs. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted. 1/4 cup heavy cream. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. 1/2 teaspoon onion powder. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners. In a large bowl, mix together almond flour, Parmesan cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add melted butter and heavy cream, and whisk until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Fold in the shredded zucchini and cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the batter. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes

Just out of the oven, brushed with some squeeze margarine because that's my speed today, and looking good!
Besides the usual GF flour substitutions, I decided to use cornmeal in place of the almond flour called for there. Still not full-on corn zucchini muffins, but it's enough for some flavor interest.
These did end up more like drop biscuits in texture, with the little extra corn taste. Probably a make-again!
Tumblr media
The paper cups did not, in fact, seem to stick, and it picked up some decently browned crustiness on the bottom. I did actually cut back on the cheese just a tad, because around 1.5 cups of the grated looked like plenty. That also got some freeze dried chives, because we didn't have fresh. Chopped green onion might be even better, but we didn't have those either.

Yum!
Going with a sort of Three Sisters theme here, I cooked up the end of a bag of pinto beans and threw together some not entirely attractive soup.
Tumblr media
That went in the cumin-tomato-hot paprika direction, and got most of the leftover cooked cabbage/carrot worked in, along with maybe half a cup of leftover taco meat. Ended up tasting way better than it looks--which is just as well, considering how pots of soup will grow around here! May end up freezing a container for later.
But, pretty satisfying stuff, and I'm glad I did go ahead and put in the effort today. I really needed some kind of fresh bread.

i decided to change around the menu a bit bc i have Important Appointments™ this week but i have plenty of free time today so i'm making savory veggie muffins!
i'm trying this recipe
i'm switching out the rosemary for dried thyme or something though bc i'm not a big fan of rosemary. also cheddar cheese isn't so common here and i'm not a big fan so i'm changing it to hushålls cheese which is a neutral, creamy and slightly salty cheese that goes well in most things!
i haven't tried this recipe before so this is not a recommendation (at least not yet). it does look very tasty though so yeah! let's hope it turns out nice!

Zucchini, Cheddar & Tomato Mini-Tarts
We've kinda hit that point in the season where I can't tell anymore if I want to hang onto summer or jump headfirst into fall and my cooking has definitely reflected this, as I swing wildly between entirely summery dishes and more cold weather fare. So today it's kinda fitting that I'm sharing these Zucchini, Cheddar & Tomato Mini-Tarts. Full of garden fresh zucchini and tomatoes, these have that late-summer feel that deliciously bridges the seasonal gap.
They'd be a great addition to any Labor Day celebration!
And even though they look kinda fussy and you're probably thinking "so totally not worth it", I'm here to say that these are actually not at all that hard to make and can even be made a day ahead and reheated a smidge before serving. So um, yes in fact, totally worth it!
You start by making a simple dough in the food processor that includes white and whole wheat flour, as well as some grated cheddar cheese, giving the crust tons of savory flavor and a little more oomph than traditional pastry crusts.
After you've rolled out the dough into a largish rectangle, you cut it into squares and line those dough squares into a muffin tin.
Meanwhile, you make this heavenly roasted mixture of zucchini, cherry tomatoes and honey spiked with a bit of cayenne pepper. Yum! It's hard not to just eat the mixture as is and forget about the tart part!
But force yourself to exercise a bit of restraint and add the ricotta/chive mixture to the little cups, topping it with those irresistible, spicy-honey roasted veggies--
And then a generous shaving of Parmesan cheese
And you'll be rewarded with adorable little appetizers that have layers and layers of flavor--gooey, melted ricotta, tender, sweet/spicy veggies, flaky crust and a crunchy Parmesan topping, that'll leave you both pining for warm lazy days and excited for those crisp, energized autumn ones to come. And that my friends, is a win-win!
Zucchini, Cheddar & Tomato Mini-Tarts
Makes one dozen mini-tarts
Prep Time for the dough: 10 minutes, plus at least 2 hours to chill, plus another 15 minutes or so to roll out, cut into squares and stick into muffin tin; Bake Time for Veggies:  About 40-50 minutes; Prep Time for Ricotta Filling: 5 minutes; Assembly Time:  10 minutes; Bake Time for Tarts:  25-30 minutes
Ingredients
For the crust
1 1/2 cups (170 grams) unbleached, all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (65 grams) whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed and refrigerated until ready
3/4 cup (55 grams) Cheddar cheese, grated
1 large egg, beaten
Up to 6 tablespoons ice water
For the Veggie Filling
About 2 pounds zucchini (3-4 medium), ends trimmed and cut into small cubes
2 pints cherry tomatoes, cut in half
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1-2 shakes red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons honey mixed with a pinch of cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
For the Ricotta filling
3/4 cup fresh ricotta
1 large egg
3 tablespoon freshly chopped chives
1 garlic clove, minced
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
For the topping
2-3 tablespoons milk or heavy cream
Finely grated Cheddar (somewhere between 6-8 tablespoons)
The Recipe
1.  To make the crust:  Pulse together the white and wheat flour and the salt in the bowl of a food processor. Add in the butter and cheddar and pulse until the mixture looks like little peas. Drizzle in the egg and 3 tablespoons water and pulse a few times. Squeeze a bit of the mixture between your fingers. If it holds together, you're done. If not, add one tablespoon water, pulse a couple of times and squeeze again. You just don't want to over mix or the dough will be tough. Turn the dough out onto the counter or a board and form into a ball. Flatten into a disk and wrap with plastic wrap. Chill for at least 2 hours and up to one day.
2.  While the dough is chilling you can make the veggie filling. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Place the zucchini, tomatoes, salt and red pepper flakes onto a rimmed baking sheet and toss with the oil. Spread the mixture into an even layer and roast for 40-50 minutes, tossing every now and then, until the veggies are tender and beginning to caramelize. Remove the pan from the oven. Stir the honey with the cayenne pepper in it and the vinegar into the veggies and let them cool to room temperature.
3.  When the dough has chilled, spray a standard muffin tin pan with nonstick spray and set aside. Flour a board or the counter lightly and roll the dough out into a large 12x16-inch rectangle. Trim any scraggly edges and use a ruler to cut four 4-inch strips and then cut those strips into 3 squares, so that you have a total of 12. Fit the squares into each muffin tin, gently pressing down in the center so that the corners of the dough hang over the edges of each well. Chill the dough for 15 minutes.
4.  To make the Ricotta filling:  Place the ricotta, egg, chives and garlic in a small bowl and whisk together well. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and mix together again.
5.  Equally divide the ricotta mixture among the chilled dough wells. Top with the veggies and fold the overhanging dough corners over the filling. Brush the tarts with the milk and cream and sprinkle with the cheese. Place the tin on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake for 25-30 minutes, until they are bubbly and golden. Let cool a bit, remove from the tins and serve.
6.  You can definitely make these a day ahead. Let them come to room temperature in the tin, cover and chill and then reheat in a low oven before serving.
Enjoy!
Note:  Recipe adapted from The New York Times by Melissa Clark, 2017. I tinkered a bit with the filling and some of the proportions. You could definitely also use different veggies.

15+ Low Carb Recipes & Meal Prep Tips
Cutting carbs can help you lose substantial amounts of fat, but there is another key ingredient that’ll help you maintain those weight loss results for life: convenience.
Simply put, if you make your low-carb or keto diet more convenient than grabbing an unhealthy meal, you will be able to create a lifestyle that helps you lose weight and improve health naturally.
One way to do this is by cooking healthy low carb keto freezer meals, so you always have something you can eat when you’re pressed for time.
Whether you are looking for a simple solution for weekly meal prep, a quick instant pot recipe, or a hot and ready dinner fresh from the slow cooker, there are a plethora of low carb freezer recipes you can rely on.
Here is a quick overview of what you’ll find in this keto-friendly freezer meal round-up:
The Three Key Benefits of Batch Cooking Freezer Meals
We hinted at the powers of batch cooking freezer meals in the opening paragraphs, so let’s take a closer look why freezer-friendly recipes are such a powerful tool:
1. Saves you more money than before
Although healthy foods come with the stigma of being more expensive, this does not have to be the case for you. By planning ahead and cooking bigger batches of freezer-friendly meals, your food budget will decrease as you eat out less and waste less food.
If you’d like to save more money on your freezer meals, we recommend checking out our comprehensive guide to eating keto on a budget.
2. Reduces your overall carbon footprint and food waste
The most recent estimates by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicate that Americans waste more than $161 billion each year on food, with dairy products as the food waste frontrunner. Not only is this bad for everyone’s food budget, but it contributes to increased greenhouse gas emissions as food in landfills leaks methane gas into the atmosphere.
With the help of freezer-friendly keto meals, you will be able to reduce your body fat %, food budget, and carbon footprint at the same time. Along with that, you’ll be taking steps toward making your new diet plan into a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.
3. Makes keto easier to follow
Willpower and restriction will help you get started, but leveraging convenience to work for you is what will keep you going when you are stressed, hungry, and tired.
To illustrate what I mean, imagine having several healthy and delicious keto-friendly meals in the freezer waiting for you.
With the help of freeze meals, you no longer have to think, prep, plan, calculate, decide, or negotiate with yourself when you are already drained from the day. Just take the meal out of the fridge, reheat it, and eat it to reach your goals.
Surprisingly enough, there are hundreds of recipes that are healthy, easy-to-make, low-carb, and freezer-friendly. To get you started, let’s take a look at the most popular freezer meals for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
Low Carb Breakfast Freezer Meal Recipes
Here are some great options for batch cooking and freezing breakfasts so you always have something ready to go in the morning.
Keto Sausage Gravy and Biscuit Bake
If you’d like something hearty and savory for breakfast, give this freezer-friendly keto casserole a try. The biscuit topping will satisfy your craving for a light and fluffy breakfast pastry, while the sausage and gravy bring you to a level of satisfaction that high-carb dishes simply can’t emulate.
Freeze the finished product as is, and have it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner if you are looking for a keto-friendly high-protein freezer meal that’ll keep you in ketosis.
See the Recipe
Keto Lemon Poppyseed Muffins
Occasionally, I find savory and hearty dishes to be overwhelming for my taste buds and stomach in the morning. If you find yourself feeling the same way, make these keto muffins instead. You’ll find them to be the perfect treat to have with your keto coffee or tea.
Each recipe yields 12 muffins, which you can freeze individually and take out whenever you want a keto-friendly baked good. Pop them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds, slice in half, and place a pad of butter between them for a quick and healthy low-carb breakfast.
See the Recipe
Low Carb Cinnamon Roll Waffle
Not only are these waffles a great source of protein and healthy fats, but you can freeze them and reheat them as if they were frozen waffles from your local grocery store. Feel free to skip the cream cheese frosting and go with butter and/or keto maple syrup if you want any even quicker keto breakfast.
Another freezer-friendly waffle recipe worth trying is our Savory Jalapeno Cheddar Waffles. They come with a savory, comforting flavor and a heartier feel, providing us a pleasant change of pace from these cinnamon roll waffles.
See the Recipe
Easy Meal Prep Low-Carb Breakfast Burritos
Burritos are surprisingly easy to make keto- and freezer-friendly. First, prepare and cook all of your burrito fillings. This recipe calls for turkey sausage, eggs, spinach, and cheese, but you can use pretty much any combo of meat, cheese, and low-carb veggies you have on hand.
As your ingredients are cooling, start prepping your low-carb tortilla for filling. You can either make them yourself by following this link for a freezer-friendly tortilla recipe or purchase a keto-friendly wrap.
Finally, after the ingredients have cooled, make your burritos, wrap them in foil or freezer paper, store them in a freezer-safe bag or container, and freeze until you want a delicious keto-friendly burrito.

Keto Zucchini Bread with Walnuts
For something that’ll satisfy your sweet tooth (while sneaking in some low carb nuts and vegetables at the same time), this zucchini bread is another excellent freezer-friendly option. It is healthy, easy-to-make, filling, and so flavorful.
To prep it for freezing, slice each serving, wrap it in foil, and freeze individually. When you want a quick breakfast, warm it in the oven or the microwave. Serve with a slab of butter on top to make it even tastier and increase the fat content.
See the Recipe
Easy Low Carb Freezer Meals for Lunch
If you’re looking for something to keep on hand for lunch, you’ll find some fantastic, freezable ideas below.
Ham, Ricotta, and Spinach Casserole
This freezer meal has it all — keto vegetables, eggs, rich ricotta cheese, and plenty of umami. Plus, its high protein and fat content will keep you full throughout the day.
Feel free to have it for breakfast, lunch, a snack, or dinner. You can even bake it the night before and have it throughout the next day whenever you are hungry.
See the Recipe
Greek Cauliflower Salad
With this low carb lunch, you can experience all your favorite Greek flavors without the unnecessary carbs. Simply buy tzatziki or make it yourself (with the help of our gyro recipe), rice the cauliflower, prep the veggies, and toss everything together for an easy keto meal.
This recipe yields plenty of servings as well.  Feel free to freeze each serving and take it to work for the week or have it as a side with dinner.
See the Recipe
Cheesy Cauliflower & Bacon Soup
As you adapt to your keto lifestyle, you’ll find healthy, keto-friendly soup to be surprisingly easy to make. This recipe is the perfect example of what’s possible on the keto diet, providing you with a satisfying meal in 30 min or less.
That being said, the best part of this soup is that it makes so many servings that you can freeze for low carb lunches throughout the week. Just put the frozen soup in the microwave or thaw and heat on the stovetop until warm.
See the Recipe
Keto Cloud Bread BLT
Technically, a BLT is not keto-friendly nor freezable. With this keto recipe, however, you will learn how to make a simple keto bread that you can freeze and take out whenever you are craving a sandwich.
To make this BLT recipe into a freezer-friendly meal, prep the bread and bacon ahead of time and store them in the freezer. As your bacon and bread are reheating, prep the tomato and lettuce. When everything is ready, grab some keto mayo from the fridge and put it all together for a quick and easy keto BLT.
See the Recipe
Easy Keto Meatballs
One of the easiest ways to add high-quality fats and protein to your keto meal is by adding some keto meatballs. This freezer-friendly meatball recipe allows you to make a bunch of meatballs ahead of time, so you have something you can rely on when you are stressed, tired, and hungry after a long day.
For a simple and healthy keto meal, try placing the thawed meatballs into a baking dish and covering with marinara sauce and keto-friendly pasta, topping it with cheese, and baking at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for around 20 minutes. To get the cheese bubbly and browned, place under the broiler for an extra five minutes.

Easy Low Carb Freezer Dinners: Slow Cooker Meals and Healthy Casseroles
There’s sometimes no better feeling than being able to pop something in the oven for an easy dinner when you’re exhausted. Below, you’ll find some great examples of freezable meals that will stock your freezer full of keto meals!
Keto Tuna Casserole
Casseroles are arguably the easiest freezer keto dinners you can make. For the most part, all you have to do is throw ingredients together, bake them, eat them, and freeze the rest for later.
This tuna casserole is the perfect example of how easy it can be to make a keto meal that is delicious and freezer-friendly. Just make sure you put the leftovers in their freezer containers before you find yourself marching back to the kitchen for more.
See the Recipe
Keto Chicken Divan
Here is another example of a quick and easy keto casserole that’ll amaze your taste buds. It is a lot like chicken pot pie, but creamier, tastier, and much more satisfying.
One of the best things about this recipe is that there are many ways to adapt it to your schedule.
For example, you can make it in advance and bake it just before serving — or try cooking multiple pans when you have time and freeze them for another night.
See the Recipe
Bacon Covered Meatloaf
The title speaks for itself. Bacon plus meatloaf is a match made in keto heaven. You can even try pairing it with keto-friendly BBQ sauce if you are ready to take things to the next level.
To make the meatloaf freezer-friendly, allow it to cool to room temperature (after all of the steam has escaped), slice it based on your preferred serving size, and place each slice between sheets of baking paper/parchment in an airtight container before freezing. On the other hand, if you are preparing this meal for a family dinner, skip separating the servings and freeze the loaf as a whole.

Rarely will you find a recipe this convenient, versatile, and delicious. All you need to do is follow a simple four-step process: empty the peppers, stuff them with keto-friendly ingredients, cook them in the slow-cooker, and eat/freeze.
You can even prep them ahead of time and throw them in the slow cooker before you go to work. When you come home, you will have a hot and healthy keto meal with plenty of leftovers to freeze for later in the week.

Slow-Cooker Bacon Cheeseburger Soup
This recipe comes with all of the textures and flavors we crave from a bacon cheeseburger but in a healthy, protein-rich, freezer-friendly soup. You can also prepare this in one of three ways: as an easy slow-cooker meal, as a quick instant pot soup, or as a beautiful stovetop dinner.
We recommend making this recipe in bulk and freezing it for the colder months. Whenever you need a reliable keto meal, take it out of the freezer and reheat with some shredded cheese on top.

Getting the Most Out of Your Keto Freezer Meals: 8 Meal Prep Tips
To help you squeeze the most out of every dollar, meal, and ingredient that you can, here are some of the top meal prep tips from long-term keto dieters:
1.   Make batch cooking a part of your weekly schedule.
The two most common approaches to batch cooking are (1) having a meal prep day every week and (2) doubling or tripling the recipes each time you cook.
The first option requires some planning ahead and a good chunk of time dictated to making multiple recipes at once.
If you simply can’t carve out an afternoon or morning for meal prep each week, then the second batch cooking approach will be much easier to implement. Just make sure you know what you will make before you go to the grocery store, so you know how much of each ingredient you need to get.
2.   Batch cook recipes that call for similar ingredients.
One simple way to cut down on food spending and waste is by batch cooking recipes with ingredient crossover. This will also help you capitalize on bulk buying deals at the store and reduce the amount of prep time needed for each recipe.
3.   Keep it airtight.
Your freezer meals can easily be damaged when the cold air is allowed to come in direct contact with the food. This can steal the tenderness and flavor away for your favorite keto recipes.
To keep this from happening, I recommend buying airtight containers, freezer bags, or a vacuum sealer. If you plan on cooking some meals to store in your freezer for several months, then vacuum sealing will be the best option.
Regardless of what storage option you choose, make sure you allow the meal to cool down to room temperature before freezing.
4.   Label and date your freezer meals.
When the meals start piling up in your freezer, you may find yourself forgetting what’s what and how long each meal has been there. This is why it is so important to label each container/bag, including the name, prep date, and expected expiration date. (Bonus tip: use painter’s tape for removable labels)
To help you estimate your expiration dates, here is a quick list of how long different keto meals last in the freezer:
Soups, stews, casseroles, and most other keto recipes will keep for around three months.
Most meat and seafood can be frozen for around three months.
Low-carb vegetables typically last for up to eight months.
5.   Separate your servings before freezing.
Most foods shouldn’t be defrosted and re-frozen. To best preserve the integrity of your meals, freeze your recipes in meal-sized portions and only thaw/reheat what you will eat within the next 2-3 days.
6.    Become an expert slow-cooker.
Slow cookers, crockpots, and instant pots can be used to simplify almost any keto meal. Essentially, all you need to do is add the ingredients, close the lid, pick a setting, and it’ll be ready 6-8 hours later.
Many delicious keto-friendly dishes can be prepared in this way, including:
For a list of keto recipes that you can make in the slow cooker, follow this link.
7.   Freeze in microwave-safe dishes when possible.
If you plan to eat a freezer meal within a few weeks, store directly in a microwave-safe glass container in the freezer.
With this simple hack, all you have to do is thaw, heat, and eat — no need to transfer the food into a separate bowl or waste a freezer bag.
8.   Make your casseroles portable.
Freezing and reheating casseroles can be a bit tricky when you only have one or two mouths to feed. A simple storage hack is to line the tray with parchment paper before freezing, lift the casserole out, and cut it into portions after it is frozen. Then, wrap each serving in foil and store them in a freezer bag for easy storing, thawing, and reheating.

Cheesy Broccoli Quinoa Bites
Bite-sized Cheesy Broccoli Quinoa Bites perfect for babies, toddlers and kids that are healthy, packed with protein and easily made with only 5 simple ingredients!
Tumblr media
Ever since my daughter started eating solid foods, it has been such a fun adventure watching her learn all the new tastes, textures and varieties of fruits and veggies I have introduced to her.  I will admit, I was totally that momma that struggled with baby led weaning as I was SO afraid of her choking, so I tried to get creative with the food I would make her.  These cheesy broccoli quinoa bites are PERFECT for her because not only does she gobble them right up, but they’re the perfect size for her tiny hands and the quinoa crumbles really easily in her mouth so I’m not afraid of her choking.
These bite-sized savory treats are super easy to make too and only require 5 simple ingredients!  Packed full of protein and veggies, you can feel good about sharing these with your kids and I bet they’ll have a blast making them with you!
INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED:
Cooked quinoa – I love making a big batch of this in my Instant Pot to have on hand throughout the week and I highly suggest using chicken or vegetable broth to cook the quinoa in rather than water to give these more flavor!
Eggs – These are important to bind everything together.  I like that these bites crumble easily for my infant, but feel free to add an additional egg if you’d like them held together more.
Broccoli – I prefer to use fresh broccoli for this that I chop finely in a food processor, but you could also use frozen broccoli rice!
Carrot – I wanted to sneak in another veggie along with the broccoli and because grated carrot looks just like cheddar cheese, your kiddos will never know!
Cheese – I used shredded cheddar cheese in these, but feel free to use whatever cheese you’d like.
I do want to note that I did not add any salt, pepper or seasonings to this recipe as these veggie bites were created for little tummies, but if you’re making them for older kids (or even adults!), feel free to add whatever you’d like
Tumblr media
  You could also make larger muffins for those bigger appetites!
I also want to note that these cheesy broccoli quinoa bites freeze really well too!  This recipe makes a TON (about 30 of them) and there’s no way my 9 month old could go through all these in a week so freezing them makes it really convenient to have meals prepped for her.  Simply place them in a sealed container or ziplock bag and they can be kept in your freezer for up to 3 months!
For your older kids, these quinoa bites fit perfectly in a lunch box and make great after school snacks!
Feel free to use other veggies too like cauliflower, bell pepper or zucchini and you can even throw in fresh herbs, garlic and other seasonings as I stated before.  These are really so simple to throw together and they definitely make feeding my little one a whole lot more fun!
Hope your little ones enjoy these Cheesy Broccoli Quinoa Bites as much as mine did and please let me know if you’d like to see more kid-friendly recipes shared on the blog!  If you do decide to make these or any other Eat Yourself Skinny recipe, please make sure to tag me on Instagram so I can see all the yummy things you’re eating!
