Keto Salmon Fish Cakes Recipe with Creamy Dill Sauce/Recipe Share

Keto Salmon Fish Cakes Recipe with Creamy Dill Sauce #keto https://ketosummit.com/keto-salmon-fish-cakes-creamy-dill-sauce

There’s nothing fishy about these keto salmon fish cakes recipe – they’re delicious. The creamy dill sauce is the perfect complement to this easy ketogenic fish cakes dish.

Modifications for a Keto Diet

Generally salmon cakes will contain bread or breadcrumbs. Tasty, but off-limits. Instead, I included coconut flour and shredded coconut.

Coconut flour and shredded coconut help bind the cakes together, along with eggs.

The dill sauce didn’t really need much in the way of modifications, although this version uses coconut milk where a lot of others use sour cream.

Health Benefits of Salmon

As you probably know, fish in general and salmon in particular are really good for you. Probably at the top of the list are their omega-3 fatty acids.

Omega-3 fatty acids decrease inflammation, reduce cancer risk and improve artery health. If you’re concerned about heart health, increasing your intake of omega-3s is probably a smart move.

In addition, omega-3s are good for your joints, your brain and your vision. Basically, there are a lot of good things going for it.

Salmon is also a great source of vitamin B12, vitamin D, vitamin B3 and selenium.

As you’d probably guess, salmon also provides a good amount of protein. A serving using this keto salmon fish cakes with creamy dill sauce will get you 42 grams.

Protein assists with healing and recovery, bone health and prevents muscle loss. That last one becomes even more important as you age.

Power up your mind and body and enjoy a healthy meal with this keto salmon fish cakes recipe with creamy dill sauce! In case you are just looking for a non-keto version, here’s one for you.

Chicken Green Onion Balls/Recipe Share

Chicken-Bacon-Bites-800x600

Ingredients:
¼ lb (115 g) bacon (about 2 – 3 thick cut slices)
1 lb (454 g) ground chicken
½ cup (35 g) chopped green onion
1 tsp (2 g) ground sage
½ tsp garlic powder
MIX: Roughly chop the bacon slices and put them in the food processor. Process until the bacon resembles ground meat, but not so long that the bacon becomes a paste. Add the ground chicken, green onion, sage and garlic powder to the food processor. There should be plenty of salt in the mixture already, thanks to the bacon! Pulse until the meat mixture is just combined and you can see that the green onions are evenly distributed throughout.
SHAPE: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. Use a 2 tablespoon (30 ml) scoop to measure out 16 equal-size portions of the meat mixture and drop them onto the lined baking tray. Use your hands to roll each portion into a round mini meatball shape.
BAKE: Cook the burger bites for 20 minutes and rest them for 5 minutes on the baking tray before serving. These are great paired with either BBQ Sauce  or Creamy Green Onion Dressing

Sugar Free Nutella Copycat /Recipe Share

The Recipe for Sugar Free Copycat Nutella

This is actually a lot easier than you may think it is.

 

What you will need to make this.

Roasted Hazelnuts Skinned–1 Cup

Canola Oil–1 Teaspoon

Your choice of Sugar Alternative -1 Tablespoon equivalent to sugar Sugar Free Chocolate Chips–1/2 Cup

or

No sugar added Cocoa Powder 1/4 cup

Greek Yogurt–1 Tablespoon

How to make this recipe.

If hazelnuts are not roasted and skinned, do so by roasting them in a 350 oven for 15-18 minutes.

Allow them to cool and then remove the skins

Place your chocolate chips in a microwave safe cup and melt them in the microwave.

I set my microwave on medium high and melt in 20 second increments stirring between increments.

You can melt them over a double boiler if preferred. Don’t forget to stir. In a food processor, process your hazelnuts and oil together for about a minute or until they become somewhat pasty.

Add your yogurt, sugar alternative and the cocoa (if using cocoa) to the food processor and continue to blend.

You will need to stop the processor a few times to scrape the sides to ensure that everything is blending together.

If using chocolate chips, add your melted chocolate chips (if using chocolate chips) and pulse your food processor a few times until blended.

However, if you are using the cocoa method you can skip this step.
