Low Carb Ward 8 Cocktail

Low Carb Ward 8 Cocktail has an interesting story behind its creation. It is a vintage drink from Boston and was supposedly created to celebrate an election victory for a local politician (clearly from Ward 8). Vintage is the key word since it was first created in the late 1890s, prior to prohibition. We are glad it made its return and today is enjoying a revival, of sorts. Our low-carb version has on 4.2g of carbs and is a nice addition to your low-carb drink collection. It is a take on a traditional “whiskey sour.” The original contains Rye Whiskey, a Citrus Juice, Orange Juice and just a ..read more

Low Carb Oaxaca Old Fashioned

Low Carb Oaxaca Old Fashioned is a unique twist on a very old drink. The original “Old Fashioned” has been around, well, forever. Rye whiskey or bourbon based, muddled sugar and bitters, and a garnish of orange . . . a classic! In Mexico an Old Fashioned is called “Anticuado,” or outdated. So perhaps it is time for a new low-carb creation with a Mexican theme. We cannot claim credit for creating this cocktail, but we can take credit for making it low carb. In 2007, a New York bartender, Phil Ward, at Death & Co. in the East Village, introduced his “Oaxaca Old Fashioned” He not only intro ..read more

Keto Cauliflower Seafood Paella is a taste of traditional Spain that is quick-to-the-table, healthy, low in carbs, and so delicious.

Chili Lime Shrimp Quesadilla is just about the perfect lunch, dinner, or snack meal. Joanie’s creation is easy to make and is also low in carbs. She uses a “Mission Carb Balance Tortilla.” Virtually every Mexican restaurant will have regular quesadillas on their menus. Almost any protein will do fine! We like shrimp quesadillas. But, you could make them with beef, pork, chicken, and even crab meat. How you season and cook the protein adds the flavor. The consistency comes from the delicious gooey cheese that holds the quesadilla together. In fact, think of these delicious snacks meals as “toa ..read more

Keto Pico de Gallo is best described as a “fresh tomato salsa.” In fact, in Mexico, it is called “Salsa Fresca.” Fresh is the key word here.

As a reward for that required trip to the grocery on the day she makes her “Pico de Gallo,” the preparation is simply chopping and combining – no cooking!

Authentic Mexican Salsa Roja
Tasty Low Carb
by Joanie and Chris
1y ago
Authentic Mexican Salsa Roja is really a difficult claim. There are simply thousands of Salsa Roja recipes. Every Mexican restaurant seemingly has their own version. Not to mention the store shelves that are filled with jarred versions. We feel the authenticity comes from “roasting” the required ingredients (tomatoes, peppers, onion, and garlic), and committing to freshness. Plus, a lot of fresh cilantro. Joanie does use some techniques to enhance the flavor. But, the key is roasting and freshness. Salsa Roja is tomato based and often referred to as “table salsa” in Mexico. Here in the Southw ..read more
