For a quick, less-complicated bread recipe, try this almond butter-based one. With only five ingredients, it's very simple to whip up in a pinch. This recipe can be finicky, so if it needs more than the recommended time in the oven to set, don't panic. At such a low oven temperature it's possible to have fluctuations in cooking time.

Almond Flour Pancakes
This thicker, heartier keto version of pancakes will fill you up quickly, and they take sugar-free maple syrup very well.

Chicken Ramen Dip
In college, I was not just a ramen girl—I was the ramen girl. I ran a column of ramen recipes on my dorm website and ate ramen just about every day. When a ramen cookbook came out, three people gave it to me for Christmas. I know ramen. I love ramen. I still buy spicy ramen, toss the noodles, and use the seasoning packet to make broth. When I first made this dip, I thought I was just being crazy and projecting like a true ramen addict. But ramen is back and can be enjoyed with fresh veggies or pork rinds. You’ll be amazed by how much flavor is packed into each bite.

Chocolate Covered Bacon
Chocolate and bacon, two of life's most sinful pleasures, come together in this decadent, savory, and sweet recipe.

When my legendary chocolate cravings hit, I reach for these peanut buttery cups of high-fat bliss. This recipe seamlessly blends coconut oil with peanut butter powder to create a smooth texture. If I only have regular peanut butter on hand, I just decrease the amount of coconut oil by about 1 tablespoon. My favorite way to eat these is to take small bites and let them slowly melt. De-li-cious.
75 16

5 1
Classic Mozzarella Sticks
Almost straight from my childhood, these classic mozzarella sticks are just as good as the real breaded thing. A key ingredient here is the powdered Parmesan cheese. Since it is powdered, it mimics the adhesive qualities of breading, but without the carbs. Shredded Parmesan will not yield the same crispy exterior. When I've had a long day, I like to whip these up right when I come home, and then fry a batch for my favorite weeknight shows. These also freeze well if you prefer to make them in advance.
25 4
Coconut Almond Flour Bread
Bread is pretty hard to come by on the keto diet, but not when you get a little creative. This nut-based bread recipe yields a fluffy, thick loaf that's perfect for sandwiches or enjoyed with a thick pat of butter. Don't omit the cooling time or the loaf will fall.
75 10

If the batter is too runny, try using a cookie cutter or similar device on the griddle to keep the batter in place.
15 1
Creamy Crab Dip
This rich, creamy dip is an homage to the first crab dip I ever had. I snagged every keto-friendly veggie stick and cheese slice to consume scoop after scoop of dip. Ever since, crab dip has been a favorite. This dip goes great with Baked Parmesan Chips.
40 4
Creamy Dill Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are my favorite keto snack at any time of day, especially when I’ve made a big batch ahead of time. Dill works well with mayonnaise to create an aromatic twist on the classic deviled egg.
40 6
Creamy Langostinos Normandy
It took more than 30 years for me to try lobster and another two before I liked it. It took a trip to Maine for my taste buds to turn, and then I spent a week in Boothbay Harbor eating sweet, buttery Maine lobster for as many meals as I could get it. I haven’t looked back. This creamy dish uses sweet, tender, and affordable lobster-like langostinos. (If your pockets are padded, you can use lobster instead.) This is a beloved regular at our family holiday parties.
50 4
Creamy Red Pepper Stuffed Chicken Breasts
If you love sweet juicy red bell peppers, you’ll love this infusion of tender chicken in a creamy red pepper sauce.
70 4
Creamy Seafood Chowder
Growing up in the Northeast I’ve had the pleasure of sampling three different styles of clam chowder: Rhode Island (clear broth), New England (creamy broth), and Manhattan (red broth). But for me, there’s nothing like a creamy, peppery clam chowder. Most clam chowders are full of carbs, so instead of potatoes, I’ve added more protein with langostinos, which look and taste like tiny lobsters. If you’re on a budget, you can certainly skip them and just call it clam chowder. And as all New Englanders know, clam chowder is not just for the winter—it’s year-round deliciousness.
70 6
Creamy Sun Dried Tomato Chicken and Sausage
This dish gets its creaminess from the melted mozzarella, sweetness from the sun-dried tomatoes, and spiciness from red pepper flakes. Serve with a side of steamed veggies or over zucchini noodles.
40 4
Creamy Tomato Keto Soup
Soup has always been the best choice for winter days. But this one can be made all year long, which means once you try this one you will make it at least once a week.

Rich, dark chocolate is the shining star in this double chocolate brownie recipe. Sprinkled with dark chocolate, these gooey, almond flour-based brownies are good to the last crumb. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or some sliced berries.
40 8
Eggs Benedict
Another breakfast classic you're able to enjoy on keto is Eggs Benedict. Instead of an English muffin, substitute a layer of bacon for the necessary crunch. If your hollandaise sauce gets too thick while it rests, simply add a few drops of warm water and mix before serving.
20 2
Everything Pretzels
One thing I’ve learned for sure is that keto cakes can be made from eggs and keto breads can be made from cheese. There’s really nothing you can’t do with eggs or cheese plus a little almond or coconut flour if you’re craving a bread-like treat. Huge props to UpLateAnyway.com, who inspired the dough for this recipe with her famous low-carb stromboli recipe, which, to me, makes her a ketogenic hero.
35 1
Feta and Olive Stuffed Chicken Thighs
For a Mediterranean vibe, try this feta and olive stuffed chicken recipe. Great on their own or served with Zucchini Noodles, these chicken thighs are bursting with Greek flavor. Top with extra feta for a cheesier bite.
35 4
French Onion Dip
While you may buy French onion dip at the store, this recipe will make you quickly reconsider that decision.

Paired with pork rinds or raw vegetables, this dip can be enjoyed right after you make it or after resting in the refrigerator overnight for enhanced flavor.
50 3

Butter and cream form the base of this delicious baked egg. Fragrant rosemary is a wonderful substitute for thyme if you prefer, but, in either case, use fresh herbs, not dried. This recipe takes only a few minutes to make, but you’ll be thinking about it all day.
15 1
Garlic and Thyme Skillet Salmon
Salmon is a spectacularly excellent ketogenic fish because it’s full of omega-3 fatty acids. Atlantic salmon has the most fat, with about 18 grams of fat per 6-ounce portion.
20 2
