Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, this savory, carnivore, pork-based sandwich bread is perfect for sandwiches, spreads, or can be toasted and eaten alone.
Do not skip any of the steps. In the past, I sometimes would not follow the texture instructions (i.e. beat egg whites until frothy, separate these two ingredients into a separate bowl and mix, etc.)
for recipes, and it makes a difference. Each step in the recipe is important for maintaining texture.
Ingredients
8 eggs
1 lb raw ground pork (Can’t tolerate pork? Make Carnivore Sandwich Bread [Beef Version] instead.)
5 oz pork rinds (pre-ground)
1/4 cup grass-fed ghee (or butter)
1 tsp sea salt
Instructions
Start the oven.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Make the batter.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks. Place the egg yolks in your blender (for later use).
With a hand mixer, beat the whites on high until the mixture is very frothy and you have soft peaks. The mixture should be light like foam.
Melt the ghee on your stovetop.
In a blender, mix the raw ground pork, melted ghee, and egg yolks until a smooth paste forms.
Note: the mixture may be a bit hard to blend due to the meat. I usually have to stop my blender, stir the mixture, and turn it back on 3-4 times.
With a hand mixer, blend the frothy egg whites and the pork-ghee-egg yolk paste until the mixture becomes smooth like batter.
In a blender or food processor, crush the pork rinds to a fine powder.
Fold the pork rind powder and sea salt (ASHLEYRfor 15% off) into the batter.
Note: if you go through tons of salt in your household like we do, check out this salt purchasing hack that will save you money + make things more efficient. We started this last year, and I’m so happy we did!
Bake the loaf.
Pour the batter into your bread pan and bake in the oven for 60 minutes at 375 degrees.
Note: You’ll know it’s done when the texture is consistent, dry, grainy, and bread-like throughout. When you cut into the loaf, if it has slimy patches that look like chunks of egg, it’s not done.
Once done, remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes.
Prepare and serve.
Slice the loaf into 1-inch thick slices, or whatever size you prefer.
Meal ideas: Make a Classic Carnivore Club Sandwich, Pulled Pork Sandwich, or toast a slice and top with Strawberry Glaze and Honey Butter or Onion-Free Guacamole.
Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Enjoy!

These Garlic Butter Steak Bites are quick and easy to make – and they vanish fast! Serve them as finger food on appetizer night, as part of your game day spread or as part of a fun family dinner date.
Steak bites are especially fun for the kids. I know it’s a recipe mostly served as an appetizer (Super Bowl! or any Game Day party!) , but we don’t mind them as a regular meal at all.
They are quick and easy to whip up, and turn out so tender.
Ingredients
▢ 2 pounds steak cut into bites
▢ salt and ground black pepper to taste (season on the generous side)
▢ 1 tablespoon oil
▢ 4 tablespoons butter
▢ 2 cloves garlic or more to taste
▢ 2 tablespoons chopped parsleyoptional for serving
Instructions
Prep steak: Remove steak from fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Unwrap, cut into cubes (see notes at bottom of recipe for size recommendation) and season with salt and pepper. Let sit on plate on counter for 30 minutes. (For best results, do not skip this step.)2 pounds steak, salt and ground black pepper
Sear steak: Once ready, heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat. Add oil, then sear steak for around 2 minutes per side, until a nice, browned crust forms but middle stays tender. Work in batches if needed, do not overcrowd pan! Set seared steak bites aside on a plate and tent with foil.1 tablespoon oil
Make garlic butter: Once steak is done and set aside on a plate, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and garlic to empty skillet. Heat about 2 minutes, until garlic is fragrant. Take off the heat.4 tablespoons butter, 2 cloves garlic
Finish: Add steak to skillet with garlic butter. Toss to coat. Serve immediately with chopped parsley, if desired.2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Notes
Steak: Use any tender, boneless cut of steak, cut into cubes. Sirloin steak, strip steak or ribeye all work. You can use beef tenderloin/fillet if you want them extra-tender and special.
Parsley: Totally optional, but highly recommended by my entire family, save the picky 5 year old who thinks the green bits are a waste of space ?
Bite size: You can really cut these as large or as bite-sized as you like. Smaller bites cook more quickly and are more done, larger “bites” stay more tender and have a more medium middle.
I cut mine just under 1 inch, and cooked them for around 2 minutes per side, plus some extra tossing around for 30 seconds to get the edges charred.
Searing time: 4 minutes yielded just under 1-inch bites with a medium-done middle. If you want yours more rare, stick to 1-inch cubes and go with a short and blazing hot sear.
For more done bites, sear them a little longer on medium-high heat instead; and/or cut them smaller. Just make sure you don’t overcook them, or they may turn out chewy.

Golden, crispy tater tots loaded with savory sausage gravy, melty cheddar, and perfectly cooked eggs — a hearty, diner-style breakfast you can make at home.
Large eggs (4) – cooked your way (scrambled, fried, or poached)
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese (1 cup / 100 g) – for melty, cheesy goodness
Fresh chives (2 tbsp) – chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Bake the tots – Preheat oven and cook frozen tater tots per package directions until golden and crisp. For extra crunch, use convection or broil settings for the last few minutes.
Brown the sausage – In a large skillet over medium heat, cook crumbled sausage until no pink remains. Transfer to a plate, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
Make the roux – Melt butter in the same skillet, stir in flour, and cook for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
Make the gravy – Gradually whisk in warm milk, scraping up any browned bits. Cook 3–5 minutes until thickened. Return sausage to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and keep warm on low.
Cook the eggs – In a separate pan, cook eggs to your liking (scrambled, fried, or poached). Season lightly.
Assemble bowls – Divide crispy tater tots among 4 bowls. Top with eggs, ladle sausage gravy over, sprinkle with cheddar, and finish with chives. Serve hot.
Quick Notes & Pro Tips
Make ahead: Cook the gravy and sausage up to 2 days in advance. Reheat gently over low heat.
Milk tip: Warm milk before whisking into the roux to avoid lumps.
Eggs: For poached eggs, add a splash of vinegar to the water for perfectly set whites.
Extra crispy tots: Broil for 1–2 minutes after baking.
Assembly: Keep components separate until serving to maintain the best textures.

Step-by-Step Cooking Guide
1. Baking the Tots
Bake until deep golden brown — a crispy base is key for holding up the gravy.
2. Making the Sausage Gravy
Cook sausage until browned. Use its drippings for the roux for maximum flavor.
Gradually whisk in warmed milk to create a smooth, thick gravy.
3. Eggs Your Way
Scrambled for easy eating, fried for a runny yolk, or poached for elegance.
4. Building the Bowl
Tots first, then eggs, a generous ladle of gravy, and a cheesy-chive finish.
Ingredient Details & Substitutions
Sausage: Use pork sausage for classic flavor or turkey for a lighter bowl.
Cheese: Swap cheddar for pepper jack for a little heat.
Eggs: Try soft-boiled eggs for a runny, jammy yolk.
Milk: Substitute with half-and-half for an extra rich gravy.
Variations & Serving Suggestions
Spicy kick: Add hot sauce, jalapeños, or Cajun seasoning to the gravy.
Veggie boost: Mix in sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach.
Brunch spread: Serve with fresh fruit or a simple side salad for balance.
Crowd-style: Make it in a casserole dish with layers of tots, gravy, and cheese.
Storage & Make-Ahead
Refrigeration: Store components separately for up to 3 days.
Freezing: Freeze gravy and sausage mixture for up to 2 months; thaw overnight in the fridge.
Reheating: Warm gravy on the stovetop; bake tots in the oven for crispness.
FAQs
Q: Can I make this vegetarian? A: Yes — use plant-based sausage and veggie gravy.
Q: How can I make this for a crowd? A: Double the recipe and serve “buffet style” with toppings on the side.
Q: Can I use hash browns instead of tater tots? A: Absolutely! Shredded or diced hash browns work well.

The other night, I prepared these cabbage burgers, and they were a huge hit! Delicious, cheesy, oven-roasted delight that fits perfectly into a low-carb or keto lifestyle—without the buns or the guilt. This is how I went about it:
What You’ll Need:
1 medium green cabbage (cut into thick slices,0ne inch)
1 lb lean ground beef
½ cup tomato sauce/sugar-free ketchup
½ cup shredded cheese
½ tsp salt & black pepper
½ tsp red chili flakes (for a little kick)
ONE tsp grated garlic
½ cup chopped green onions
½ cup fresh chopped parsley
How to Make Them:
Step 1: Prep Set your oven’s temperature to 400°F, or around 200°C, first. Arrange the pieces of cabbage on a baking sheet (if you like less cleanup, use parchment paper). Drizzle them with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper. To slightly soften them, roast them in the oven for ten minutes. They cook more evenly with the meat later on thanks to this process.
Step 2: Beef Mixture Take out a large mixing dish and start roasting your cabbage. Grated garlic, chopped green onion, parsley, chili flakes, salt, pepper, half of the shredded cheese, and ground meat should all be added. Combine the ingredients and form into four burger patties.
Step 3: Assemble Remove from the oven the cabbage. Spread a dollop of tomato sauce over each slice. Place a beef burger directly on top of it after adding a little cheese. Add a final little grating of cheese on top of the meat.
Step 4: Bake Place the tray back in the oven and continue baking for another 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and bubbling and the beef is cooked through. If you want that cheesy crust, you can broil it for the final one to two minutes.
Step 5: Serve Remove them, garnish with more parsley if you want to be fancy, and serve hot. They taste fantastic by themselves or served with cauliflower mash or a side of salad.
Oven-Baked Cabbage Burger
Bonus Tip:
Feel free to add hot sauce or jalapeños to the meat mixture if you prefer your burgers hotter. If you don’t like beef, you can also use ground chicken or turkey.

Then coat them properly with the mixture of salt, paprika, oil of avocado, & powdered garlic.
Spread the seasoned corn-sized cauliflower bits on the baking sheet/tray.
Shift that baking tray to the oven for roasting the cauliflower bits for ~twenty mins at 200 °C.
After ~ten mins mix them to change their position for even roasting.
Check them after twenty mins, and remove them from the oven if they are crisp & golden.
LIME CREMA:
Mix juice of lime, sour cream, pepper, mayo, salt, minced garlic, & chopped cilantro in a bowl.
Now, you can refrigerate your lime crema.
COOKING OF CAULIFLOWER RICE:
Include oil/butter in a skillet over a normal flame.
Include the cauliflower rice in that melted butter/hot oil.
Sprinkle the salt, mix & cook them until tender(~five mins).
ASSEMBLING:
Grab the four serving bowls.
Add an equal amount of cauliflower rice in each bowl.
Now, top the rice with chicken slices, cauliflower”corn”, avocado slices, drizzle of lime crema, cheese, & fresh cilantro one by one.
Finally, press half a fresh lime’s juice into each bowl.
Your strict keto bowls of Street Corn Chicken Rice are ready to serve!
TIPS:
Use an airfryer to have the extra crispy cauliflower corns
You may use the leftover/rotisserie chicken for the quick work.
You may use the chipotle/jalapenos for the spicy version.
Longer marination of chicken & longer refrigerating of crema will give you deep flavor.
HOW TO PRESERVE(LEFTOVERS):
NOTE: Never store an assembled rice bowl
CHILLING:
Save every component individually in the containers(sealed). Refrigerate them all for ~four days. Bring all components to the surrounding temperature while rewarming the rice & chicken. Then assemble them for quick serving.
FREEZING:
You may save the chicken & rice of cauliflower individually in the container with sealed lids. Freeze them for ~sixty days. Never freeze the crema & topping. Defrost & reheat the chicken, prepare the lime crema & toppings fresh. Assemble them all to serve.
FAQs:
What can I use in place of the dairy cheese?
You may use extra cream, paste of avocado, or almond-based crumbled cheese in place of dairy cheese. You can also skip the cheese if you want.
Will the frozen cauliflower rice work?
Absolutely! You need to defrost & drain extra water properly, then your cauliflowers are good to go.

Introduction: Indulge in a culinary masterpiece with our delectable 1-Point Egg Muffins, a delightful fusion of flavors and textures that will elevate your breakfast experience. Packed with pre-cooked ham, finely diced bell pepper, and onion, these savory muffins are a perfect blend of protein and vegetables. Whether you’re seeking a convenient meal prep option or a sophisticated brunch dish, our egg muffins are a versatile addition to your culinary repertoire.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb pre-cooked ham, diced (bacon or sausage can be substituted)
1 bell pepper, finely diced
1/2 onion, finely diced
10 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tbsp avocado oil (bacon fat can be used for added flavor)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven to Perfection: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F, ensuring the ideal temperature for achieving the perfect texture and flavor in our egg muffins.
Chop with Precision: Meticulously dice the pre-cooked ham, bell pepper, and onion to create bite-sized pieces that will be evenly distributed throughout each muffin, providing a burst of flavor in every bite.
Whisk and Mix with Finesse: Crack the eggs into a spacious bowl and whisk them to perfection. Add the meticulously chopped ingredients, along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper each, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Grease for Success: Ensure the muffin tin is generously coated with your preferred fat or oil, preventing any sticking issues during baking. Alternatively, opt for muffin tin liners for a hassle-free baking experience.
Spoonfuls of Culinary Art: Carefully spoon the egg mixture into each section of the muffin tin, filling them almost to the brim. Anticipate a delightful puffing up as they bake, promising an aesthetically pleasing presentation.
Bake to Perfection: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and let the magic happen for approximately 20 minutes. The result? A golden-brown exterior with a perfectly cooked, fluffy interior.
Cooling Elegance: Allow the egg muffins to cool slightly before serving, enhancing the overall texture and ensuring a delightful dining experience.
1/4 cup (56g) light cream cheese, softened (Philadelphia 1/3 less fat or similar)
1/4 cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk or skim milk
2 tbsp (30g) unsalted butter (or light butter alternative, if available and suitable for baking)
1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, sifted
1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch, sifted
1/4 tsp cream of tartar (optional, but helps stabilize egg whites)
1/2 cup (80g) erythritol or another granular sugar substitute equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
For the Water Bath:
Boiling water
For Dusting (Optional):
1-2 tsp powdered erythritol or other powdered sugar substitute
Equipment:
8-inch round springform pan or cake pan with a removable bottom
Parchment paper
Aluminum foil
Large roasting pan (for water bath)
Electric mixer
Spatulas
Whisk
Instructions:
Prepare the Pan: Grease and flour your 8-inch springform pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. For easy removal and to prevent water from seeping in during the water bath, wrap the outside of the pan securely with 2-3 layers of aluminum foil. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
Make the Cheese Base:
In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), combine the softened light cream cheese, unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk), and butter. Whisk constantly until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat.
Whisk in the egg yolks one at a time until fully incorporated.
Sift in the flour and cornstarch into the mixture. Whisk until smooth and no lumps remain. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Whip the Meringue:
In a very clean, dry bowl (preferably glass or metal), add the egg whites and cream of tartar (if using).
Using an electric mixer, start whipping the egg whites on medium speed until foamy.
Gradually add the erythritol (or sugar substitute) a little at a time while continuing to whip.
Increase the speed to high and whip until you achieve glossy, soft peaks. The to meringue should hold its shape but still be pliable. Do not over-whip to stiff peaks, as this can make the cake dry.
Combine the Batters:
Add about one-third of the meringue to the cheese base mixture. Gently fold it in with a spatula to lighten the batter.
Add the remaining meringue in two additions, gently folding until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the meringue; this is key to the soufflé texture. Overmixing will result in a dense cake.
Bake with Water Bath:
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Gently tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles.
Place the springform pan into the larger roasting pan. Carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan until it comes about 1 inch up the sides of the springform pan.
Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cake is set but still slightly wobbly in the center. An inserted skewer should come out with moist crumbs.
Cooling and Serving:
Once baked, turn off the oven and prop the oven door open slightly with a wooden spoon. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about 30-60 minutes. This slow cooling helps prevent the cake from deflating too much.
Remove the cake from the oven and the water bath. Carefully remove the aluminum foil. Let it cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 2-3 hours (preferably overnight) to firm up.
Once chilled, carefully run a thin knife around the edge of the pan before releasing the springform.
Dust with powdered erythritol before serving, if desired.
Weight Watchers Point Considerations (Estimate):
Light Cream Cheese: Significantly lower in points than full-fat.
Unsweetened Almond Milk/Skim Milk: Very low or zero points.
Erythritol/Sugar Substitute: Zero points.
Butter: This is where some points will come from. Using a good quality light butter or a smaller amount if you can adjust, helps.
Flour & Cornstarch: These will contribute points.
Eggs: Points depend on the plan, but generally moderate.
To get accurate points for your specific cake, you would need to input all the exact ingredients and their quantities into your WW app and divide by the number of servings. For example, if the entire cake comes out to 30 points and you cut 10 slices, each slice would be 3 points.

Forget flour and sugar—these Carnivore Fluffy Pancakes are a protein-packed, ultra-satisfying alternative that blow traditional pancakes out of the water. With a tender texture and buttery flavor, they’re ideal for low-carb, keto, and carnivore diets alike. Bonus: they’re quick to whip up and endlessly customizable with zero guilt.
Ingredients (Base Version):
4 large eggs
4 oz cream cheese (or 1/2 cup, softened)
2 tbsp beef gelatin (gives the “fluffy” texture – like flour!)
1 tbsp butter or ghee (for cooking)
Pinch of salt
Optional: splash of vanilla extract or cinnamon (for more flavor, if tolerated)
Instructions:
Blend the Batter
In a blender or mixing bowl, combine eggs, cream cheese, gelatin, and salt.
Blend or whisk until very smooth—no lumps. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to activate the gelatin.
Heat the Pan
Heat a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of butter or ghee.
Cook the Pancakes
Pour small rounds of batter (about 3–4 inches wide) into the pan.
Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, flipping once bubbles form and the edges firm up.
Repeat until all batter is used.
Serve & Enjoy!
Serve warm with a pat of butter, whipped cream cheese, or even bacon slices on top!
Servings:
Makes 6–8 small pancakes (Serves 2)
Notes:
Beef gelatin is key for fluffiness! It mimics the structure that flour provides in regular pancakes.
You can double the batch and refrigerate the leftovers—great for meal prep.
Tips:
For extra richness, separate the eggs and whip the egg whites until fluffy—fold into the batter for extra airy pancakes.
Want it sweeter (but still carnivore-ish)? Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract.
Use a ring mold for perfect circular shapes and even thickness.
Make a savory version: add shredded cheese or crispy bacon bits to the batter!

WW SmartPoints (approx.):

SmartPoints were calculated using the WW Recipe Builder with low-fat, low-carb ingredients. Adjust based on your plan and chosen brands.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven heats, grab two oven-safe bowls or small baking dishes.
Spoon ¼ cup of marinara sauce into the bottom of each bowl, spreading it evenly to cover the base.
Step 2: Layer the Protein
Divide your cooked lean ground turkey or chicken evenly between the bowls. This adds hearty protein without spiking your SmartPoints. If you’re using pepperoni, set half aside for the top layer and layer the rest here.
Step 3: Add Vegetables
Top the protein with your chopped onions, mushrooms, and peppers. These non-starchy veggies are zero points on most WW plans and add bulk, nutrition, and flavor without any guilt.
Step 4: Sprinkle with Seasoning
Sprinkle Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes (if desired) over the veggies. This enhances the flavor without adding calories or points.
Step 5: Add the Cheese
Top each bowl with approximately ⅜ cup of shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese. It may not seem like much, but when melted, it delivers all the gooey satisfaction you expect from pizza.
Finish with a few turkey pepperoni slices on top and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese for that classic pizzeria vibe.
Step 6: Bake to Perfection
Place bowls on a baking tray and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown. For a crispier top, broil on high for an additional 1–2 minutes—but watch closely to avoid burning.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and let sit for 2–3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil or chopped parsley, and enjoy immediately. The aroma and appearance will convince even the biggest pizza lovers that this is the real deal!
Why This Recipe Is Healthy
No refined grains: Skipping the crust cuts out unnecessary calories and carbs.
High in lean protein: Keeps you full longer, supports metabolism, and aids recovery.
Low sugar: Using a no-added-sugar marinara keeps this low-glycemic.
Nutrient-dense vegetables: Add fiber, vitamins, and volume to keep you satisfied.
This pizza bowl turns a comfort food favorite into a nutrient-packed, guilt-free indulgence.
Tips for Success
Use a high-quality marinara sauce with no added sugars and minimal ingredients.
Pre-cook the meat before layering to ensure food safety and even flavor.
Don’t over-bake – the goal is melted cheese and warm toppings, not dried-out protein.
Portion wisely – each bowl is a hearty serving. Pair with a light side salad for balance.
Make it microwaveable – assemble the bowl in a glass container for a fast WW lunch!
Flavor Variations
Spicy Italian: Add turkey Italian sausage, crushed red pepper, and black olives.
Veggie Deluxe: Omit meat and load up on spinach, zucchini, olives, and artichokes.
BBQ Chicken: Swap marinara for sugar-free BBQ sauce, use diced chicken and red onion, and top with a bit of reduced-fat cheddar.
White Pizza Bowl: Use ricotta and garlic as your base, top with spinach and mushrooms.
Each variation can be adapted to fit into WW-friendly point limits.
Substitutions
Dairy-Free: Use a dairy-free mozzarella alternative. Points may vary.
Vegetarian: Omit meat and double the veggies or add plant-based crumbles.
No Turkey Pepperoni? Try lean turkey bacon or omit for a lower-fat version.
Low Sodium: Use a low-sodium sauce and cheese to reduce salt intake.
Make-Ahead & Storage
Meal prep: Assemble all ingredients in a storage-safe dish and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Freezer friendly: Freeze the assembled (unbaked) bowls. Thaw overnight and bake as directed.
