QUICK MICROWAVE BREAD (KETO)
In this post I want to tell you about a kind of flat “bread” that I usually make on special days to dip or to accompany cold soups.
It is a suitable recipe if you follow a low-carb diet or a ketogenic diet and will allow you to enjoy something similar to a bread dough.
This recipe is prepared with cheese and ground almonds, it is a delicious dough! When you try it, it melts in your mouth and it is hard to believe that it does not contain wheat flour or gluten.
It also does not contain egg, the one I have put in the recipe is only to paint it before baking and achieve a golden hue.
With this alternative you will not miss eating bread, when you really want it, prepare it.
This keto flatbread is a delicious option for a special Italian-style menu.
Anyway, I advise you not to prepare it regularly, the reason is obvious, if you get used to eating with it all the time, you will return to your old habits, and it’s about changing them.
I’ve said it many times, it seems absurd to me that when we put into practice a diet different from the conventional one, we want to replace absolutely everything and follow the same pattern as before.
Let’s be brave and change our habits, which doesn’t mean that one day you give yourself a treat, that you fancy a dough and then you prepare this one.
The same thing happens if you have guests and you want to treat them with a dessert, and you make a sugar-free cake, or you simply want to celebrate something, those are the special moments that deserve special recipes.
But don’t try to turn everyday life into that, no Don’t try to eat bread if you don’t need it, don’t eat dessert out of habit, don’t eat a bun for breakfast, no matter how healthy it is, just because. Remember that changing habits is just that, changing, leaving the old ones and adopting new ones.
This type of flatbread will be the ultimate recipe that will make you believe in this diet, do a quick memory exercise, do you remember those days when you prepared Italian-style menus? That pasta dish with its delicious sauce, that garlic bread and gratin goat cheese.
I made it from time to time, and eating it was a delight, but what happened next? I felt bloated and felt heavy for hours.
With this “flatbread” you avoid consuming refined flours, it is satisfying and delicious.
Today, I can say that I have finally changed my habits, and I can continue enjoying many Italian-style recipes without experiencing the worst part, focusing only on enjoying it and leaving aside those bad times afterward.
In my case, I not only experienced the physical effects, the bloating, the tiredness and the discomfort, but also the psychological ones, especially the remorse.
I’m sure you’ve felt this way too at some point, don’t you think? Is it time to take a step forward and change?
By avoiding excess refined flours, you will feel good again, avoid bloating and tiredness at all times.
To prepare an Italian-style menu, but low in carbohydrates, you can make some changes to traditional recipes, obtaining great results.
Prepare your Italian recipes with fewer carbohydrates and more healthy fats.
If you want to enjoy a dish of “pasta” with its Bolognese sauce or Italian meatballs and a marinara sauce, replace the traditional spaghetti with spiralized zucchini, another option is to use a legume, lentil or chickpea pasta, richer in protein and with fewer carbohydrates than the conventional one.
If you also want to prepare bruschetta for the appetizer, prepare the dough that I suggest today and cut it into square pieces, add tomato, garlic, chopped basil and olive oil. You already have your keto bruschetta ready!
Do you prefer it gratinated with garlic and goat cheese? Maybe something softer? Paint it with egg, oregano and garlic, as you see in the image, or gratinate it with mozzarella and arugula, the combinations are endless!.
Just have one thing clear thing, you don’t have to give up eating tasty and healthy at the same time, just change the ingredients, and don’t be afraid to innovate.
WithWith this keto flatbread you have the opportunity to show that you can eat delicious dishes without overdoing it with carbohydrates, it’s not that difficult!.
With this keto flatbread you can convince your mother that your new diet is cool 😉
Sometimes we don’t change things out of pure habit, we have a series of beliefs, often wrong, that we find difficult to overcome.
Surely you have ever tried to convince your mother, or someone with experience in the kitchen, to change one of her star recipes in order to make it healthier, what has been her response?.
I would bet that you came across a wall that is very difficult to overcome, and that is when we are so convinced of something, when we have it engraved in fire, it is very complicated to look beyond.
The only way to overcome these barriers is by making a direct intervention, that is, preparing the recipe yourself with the pertinent changes to improve its nutritional values, and giving it to him/her to try.
Maybe this will convince him/her that things can be done differently.
I leave you the recipe below, I would love for you to try it and tell me how it went! Cheers! 😉
Warning:
This is a high-calorie recipe because it is high in fat, it is suitable as part of a low-carb diet or a ketogenic diet. If your diet is “balanced” this recipe is not advisable, since your body will be using carbohydrates as fuel, and surely, it will not be able to burn this fat, unless your activity level is very high, of course.
