For these burgers, I used the amazing yeasty, bread-flavoured (gluten free!) Burger Buns recipe from my third cookbook Budget Keto Kitchen (2022), page 71 – and made a quick sauce using mayonnaise and no-added sugar ketchup. Enjoy this quick idea!

This is just a quick idea where a meal can be thrown together using a ‘pasta’ dish made using konjac noodles, homemade pesto and simple chicken breasts. Roasted cherry tomatoes are also added for bites of sweetness. Too easy! (Remember, these ‘noodles’ need to be rinsed VERY WELL before using. I simmer them several times in batches of fresh water to remove the funky packaging smell. Regarding the texture… well, you get used to it…!

This is a lovely, easy dish which takes a little long, but that’s only because I didn’t want to discard the courgette flesh that I scoop out to make the ‘boats’. Instead, I cook it down for a long time until it caramelises for maximum flavour, then incorporate it into the beefy mince stuffing. Using 6 courgettes here means 4 people can enjoy three boats each.

This is my favourite way to flavour the Cheesy ‘Gnocchi’ recipe in my book Lazy Keto Kitchen, (page 112). Its simply fresh thyme leaves and finely grated lemon zest scattered over. These two ingredients complement each other beautifully so you could tuck in as is, or serve it alongside chicken or fish. The macros for this recipe are based on it serving two people, but it could be stretched to serve 4 as a light meal or small side dish (the gnocchi itself is very rich).

A quick and easy salad for one, this salad boasts plenty of zingy flavour from the lemon, and creamy textures from the avocado and feta!

This is a quick and easy vegetable side dish of broccolini smothered in a garlic and sage butter. It is great alongside meat, chicken or fish, but I quite like it alongside pork chops. Enjoy!

This is a lovely, light meal that is perfect for the summer months. Soft and delicate crab cakes are enhanced with Thai red curry paste (actually available in all stores) and use an egg white and the all-essential psyllium husk powder to thicken and bind the mixture. The best part, however, is the quick-pickled cucumber and radish salad that offers plenty of flavour and crunch in every mouthful.   – – – – – – PER SERVING – – – – – – Carbs 6.5g | Fat 32g | Protein 28g – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – Fats of Life® is a recipe blog that I run as a hobby, but did you know that I a ..read more

A few weeks before my private cheffing gig in Wimbledon began, a company called Funky Fat asked me to try out some of their products. While none of the posts on this blog are sponsored (I just don’t have time for that kind of commitment!), I agreed I would play around a little with one of their products once the tournament was over, and share a creation or two if I was happy with how they turned out. I selected to play around with the ‘white chocolate’. On it’s own, I felt a coconutty flavour came through a little too strongly, so I melted it down and added more vanilla and a variety of nuts ..read more
