Introduction to Low Carb Desserts
We are fans of quick to make dessert recipes in this house and that includes this Low Carb Chocolate Mousse, which is also a part of our Dessert Every Night series! When you’ve had a long day and already eaten your meal prepped dinner, but want dessert, what to do next? You can always make mug cakes, but those get boring after a while. So, with just four ingredients and additions of your choosing you can have something new, creamy, rich and sweet any night of the week!
We Love Simple Meal Ideas, Too
Simple meals are great for big families and singles alike. Although cooking up an elaborate dinner can be nice once in a while or on a special night, for the most part simple and delicious is our preferred route. When it comes to meals you can give our egg roll in a bowl, buffalo chicken skillet and cauliflower fried rice a try, all great for meal prepping too!
Our Favorite Low Carb Desserts
Many of our favorite low carb desserts are easy and take under ten minutes to make like our pumpkin mug cake, while we also have some favorites, that are guilt-free, but take a little more work like our protein cakes! The beauty about keto becoming more and more popular each day is that more and more low carb recipes are popping up to make this lifestyle more sustainable. Just remember you can always count on ketoconnect to satisfy all your cravings!
