Shrimp Scampi

 Delicious and full of fat, can serve witb zoodles for a filling, indulgent meal! Serves 4.

1 cup olive or grapeseed oil (for frying)
2 lbs. peeled and deveined large shrimp
1/2 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder- mixed into flour
1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
1 1/2 cups dry white wine (I use Pinot Grigio)
1 tbsp. Worchestire sauce
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter- diced
2 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
salt and pepper to taste

In a deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, place shrimp in a large bowl and coat with mix of almond flour/baking powder and Old Bay seasoning. In batches, shake off excess flour from shrimp and saute in oil until just cooked, about 2 minutes. Drain shrimp on paper towel lined plate.

Discard oil and add wine, Worchestire sauce, garlic, lemon juice, and chicken broth to skillet. Cook over high heat until sauce is reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Stir in butter and season with salt ans pepper to taste. Lower heat to medium, add shrimp and cook just one more minute, just until shrimp are re-heated. Sprinkle with parsley just before serving. Serve over zoodles for a keto meal or over noodles or rice for a non keto entree.
Enjoy!

Vanilla-Almond Creme Brulee

Easier Than You Think Creme Brulee Recipes I have worked on several recipes and Del was nice enough to taste with me. ;-) She finally told me the other night that "I had perfected this", so now I feel like I can share! Extreme creamy custard on the bottom, and a hard, crunchy top layer of "burnt" sugar. "Creme Brulee" literally translates to "burnt creme".  The only "must" for this recipe is the custard cups- make sure you use heat proof cups designed for baking souffles or brulees and this recipe will be a snap!!

Olive oil cake with chocolate ganache

The olive oil in this cake makes it super moist, which is hard to achieve when working with coconut flour. Infused olive oils work wonderful in this cake; I have a blood orange infused olive oil that I will substitute into the recipe sometimes. The chocolate ganache is quick and easy, but tastes sublime! Enjoy! 1 cup olive oil 3/4 cup Coconut flour 3/4 cup erythritol 6 large eggs 2 tsp Baking powder 1 1/4 tsp Baking Soda 2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp Pink Salt INSTRUCTIONS Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Beat eggs to double the  original volume in another bowl. Add olive oil, and vanilla extract to eggs and combine. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet as you combine. Pour into a greased pan (I used a 9 inch springform pan). Bake at 350 for 30 minutes (until edges will have browned and toothpick comes out clean). Allow to cool completely, then cover in chocolate ganache.  Ganache: 1/2 cup heavy whipping cre...
