Keto: Bacon appreciation week #1

The rumors are true! Since bacon is full of protein and fat with no carbs, you can eat bacon every day on a keto diet.

This week, we highlight our favorite recipes that include — you guessed it — bacon. In this meal plan, you will enjoy recipes like Keto cheeseburger meatloaf, Keto cobb salad, and Crispy bacon and kale with fried eggs.

What is it that makes bacon so addictive? Is it the aroma? Is it the sound of the bacon sizzling in the pan or the sight of the beautifully crisp, fatty meat? Perhaps you would agree that it’s the first salty, smoky bite. It’s no wonder why bacon is loved by many.

Pro tip: Make sure to buy good quality bacon without sugar. Check out our bacon guide for cooking tips and more helpful information. You can also mix it up by using turkey bacon or beef bacon in place of pork bacon.

This is a cool twist on the idea. My problem with chicken cordon bleu is that it often falls apart. Designing the dish that way just makes so much sense.

Hi Patti, I'm wanting to start Keto but am a bit overwhelmed about the counting of fats/protein/carbs. Would you say it should be ok if I just stick to the recipes exactly, as a way to start out? Thanks

Stef- google Keto menus. You can check out so many that have a 7 day kick off plan. Just start with Eggs for breakfast any way you like them. Any meat and salad for lunches, cheese stick for snack, and a fun recipe for dinner. A yummy pizza crust is a chicken pizza crust. Google that one, it's delish as long as you make it thin enough.

Hint: 2 lbs. chicken breast or breast tenders
2 bricks cream cheese
warm them in the microwave just until they're spreadable
add in 3 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
stir together
add in garlic, onion, salt, pepper, mustard, don't use the vinegar!
add in 1 c cheese of your choice
chop the chicken small and brown in olive oil or butter
chop up the deli ham
spray casserole dish with Pam
spread the cream cheese in the pan thinly
toss the browned chicken and cut up ham on top of that
sprinkle more salt or pepper, or red pepper flakes, season as desired
(ranch dressing sprinkled on it tastes GREAT!)
top with more cheese
Makes a bigger dish so you can have lots of leftovers, and they freeze perfectly
more satisfying
I don't even know what's up with the vinegar...

This recipe is amazing! I used white wine vinegar, and added cooking cream to make it more juicy. I also used an Italian mix of cheese instead of cheddar, and sprinkled some oregano for good measure. I might not use vinegar next time though.

Week 2 of Keto for my family and I and this was a hit . Even my son who has autism didn’t fuss . I omitted the vinegar. I also did the recipe like Mrs Amy and it was so good . Definitely making this one again. Go Keto.

I’m going to make this soon. Do you think if I put some finely chopped almonds on top it would make a nice crust?

not bad but 1166 kcals, for a dieter a full serving means nothing else to eat that day

Do not, I repeat, do not stress about calories! This way of eating doesn’t count calories. Go back to the beginning and read about why not.

I love this recipe. SO tasty. However, next time I shan’t bother to precook the chicken, as it was too dry for me.

This was a bit too rich for me I love chicken cordon bleu but this was far too creamy and heavy for my taste. I did substitute home sauteed chicken and caramelized onions in place for a rotisserie chicken and I think I made the right choice.

We made this by the recipe except that I added a capful of white wine and a capful of white vinegar to mellow the vinegar out. Very good! This is a keeper in the rotation. Very easy to make.

Not my favorite recipe that I’ve made in the past 3 weeks, wasn’t awful & we are eating our leftovers for lunch.

I made this and it was delicious. It is bit heavy so next time I might use a little bit less cream cheese and add some cream instead; but I will definitely make it again.

Yum! Made this last night with 2 x chicken breasts and used creme fraiche (because I forgot to buy cream cheese!). Looks enough for three days for me with a bit of salad on the side too. Definite winner by using precooked ingredients!
