Keto Strawberry Milkshake Recipe - Low Carb Milkshakes Recipes

Keto Milkshake Recipe

This easy keto milkshake recipe is made with just 3 ingredients and has a creamy strawberry flavour. Made with frozen strawberries, unsweetened almond milk and cream, it’s a simple low carb milkshake that’s ready in about 5 minutes.

If you’re looking for an easy keto milkshake without ice cream, this strawberry shake is a quick and refreshing option for a low carb dessert or sweet treat.

Can You Make a Keto Milkshake Without Ice Cream?

Yes. This recipe doesn’t use ice cream. Frozen strawberries provide the cold, thick texture. Unsweetened almond milk helps create the right consistency without adding the carbohydrates found in traditional sweetened milkshake ingredients.

Keto Strawberry Milkshake Ingredients

Ingredients for keto smoothies and milkshakes

The 3 ingredients you’ll need are:

Frozen Strawberries – Frozen strawberries are ideal for this milkshake because they make the drink cold and thick without needing ice cream.

You can use anywhere from ½ to 1 cup depending on how strongly you want the strawberry flavour and how many carbohydrates you want to include.

Almond Milk – I use unsweetened almond milk because it keeps the milkshake relatively low in carbohydrates.

Make sure you choose an unsweetened variety, as sweetened almond milk can contain significantly more sugar.

Blending together low carb friendly milkshake with strawberries

Cream – any cream will do in this smoothie, it’s included to add creaminess and healthy fats.

Optional additions

Sugar-free chocolate – grated over the top for a chocolate-covered-strawberry variation.

Vanilla extract – adds extra flavour.

Stevia or another keto-friendly sweetener – if you prefer a sweeter milkshake.

Low carb protein powder – for additional protein.

Whipped cream – for serving.

Recommended Blender – If you’re using a blender regularly for smoothies and milkshakes, a personal blender such as a Nutribullet can be useful for quickly blending small quantities.

What Makes This a Keto Milkshake?

Traditional milkshakes are often made with ice cream, milk and added sugar, which can make them relatively high in carbohydrates. This keto milkshake uses frozen strawberries, unsweetened almond milk and cream instead. Choosing unsweetened ingredients and controlling the amount of strawberries allows you to make a creamy low carb milkshake at home.

How to Make a Keto Milkshake

Making a keto milkshake is surprisingly simple. Instead of using traditional ice cream or a sugary milkshake mix, this recipe uses frozen strawberries, unsweetened almond milk and cream to create a cold and creamy drink.

Add the ingredients: Place the frozen strawberries, unsweetened almond milk and cream into a blender.
Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if necessary.
Serve: Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Add toppings: Top with whipped cream or a little grated sugar-free chocolate if desired.

Keto Strawberry Milkshake FAQ

Are strawberries keto?

Strawberries can be included in a keto diet in moderate portions because they are relatively low in carbohydrates compared with many other fruits. The amount you use in this milkshake will affect the total carbohydrates.

Can I use fresh strawberries?

Yes. Fresh strawberries can be used, although frozen strawberries make the milkshake colder and thicker. If using fresh strawberries, you may want to add a little ice to create a colder consistency.

Yes. This recipe doesn’t require ice cream. Frozen strawberries and almond milk create a thick, creamy texture without traditional ice cream.

Can I use a different milk?

Yes. You can substitute another unsweetened, low-carbohydrate milk that fits your dietary preferences. Avoid sweetened varieties if you’re trying to keep the milkshake low in sugar.

How can I make a strawberry milkshake sweeter?

Add a small amount of your preferred sugar-free or keto-friendly sweetener. You can also add a little vanilla extract for additional flavour.

Can I add protein powder?

Yes. A scoop of low-carb protein powder can be added to the blender if you’d like to increase the protein content.

How many strawberries can I use on keto?

The amount depends on your individual carbohydrate target. This recipe uses between ½ and 1 cup of frozen strawberries, so you can adjust the quantity to suit your diet.

What is a keto milkshake?

A keto milkshake is a creamy blended drink made with low-carbohydrate ingredients instead of traditional sugary milkshake ingredients such as sweetened ice cream and syrups.

Keto Breakfast Cookies Recipe

These keto breakfast cookies are easy to make and are the perfect prep ahead treat to enjoy for breakfast with a cup of coffee. (Or bulletproof hot chocolate!)

The keto breakfast cookie recipe is a great way to enjoy a super quick ketogenic diet breakfast, especially on busy mornings.

To make the cookies, simply combine together almonds and coconut in a bowl. It’s important to prep this to have ready for once you’ve melted the other healthy ingredients together.

You can swap the flaked almonds for any keto diet friendly nut or seed you like including almond meal, chopped walnuts or cashew nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, hemp seeds or hemp hearts.

Then, melt together the peanut butter, stevia, cocoa powder and butter. You can feel free to swap the peanut butter for almond butter or another nut or seed butter, stevia for your sweetener of choice and butter for coconut oil if you’d prefer for the cookies to be dairy free.

To make the cookie dough, pour the peanut butter mixture over the nut mixture and stir until well combined.

You can make double chocolate cookies by folding keto friendly dark chocolate chips through the rest of the ingredients.

Then, it’s just a matter of dropping a tablespoon per cookie onto a greased cookie tray and place into the fridge overnight to harden. You can then simply grab a couple of low carb breakfast cookies to enjoy for an easy breakfast the next morning.

The cookies are loaded with healthy fats from the nuts, nut butter and butter or coconut oil, while being low in grams of net carbs, making them the perfect healthy breakfast, keto dessert or after dinner treat.

Keto Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe

This Keto chocolate ice cream recipe is a rich, decadent dessert that’s no churn – so you don’t need an ice cream maker to enjoy your own homemade ice cream.

There are only 4 ingredients in this ice cream:

4 Eggs – the eggs need to be separated, which you can do by cracking the egg over a bowl and placing the whites in one bowl and yolks in another. As this dessert does contain raw eggs, be sure you’re using fresh eggs and refrain from giving it to children, the elderly, those with weakened immunity or pregnant.

1/2 Cup Stevia – for sweetness, stevia is my go to sweetener. You can use whatever sweetener you like and include more or less depending on how sweet you’d like your ice cream to be. (Find stevia on Amazon.)

Cream – use heavy, whipping, double or whatever cream you can whip to thickened whipped cream.

Cocoa Powder – for the chocolate element cocoa powder is used. You can use cacao powder instead if that’s what you have. (Find cocoa powder on Amazon.)

Keto Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe

4 Eggs
1/2 Cup Stevia
1 Cup Cream
1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder

Separate the eggs into 2 bowls, then whisk the egg whites until thickened and the briefly mix the yolks until smooth and creamy.
Add the stevia and whisk until fully incorporated.
Pour the cream into another bowl and then whisk until you have thickened whipped cream.
Add the cocoa powder and whisk util incorporated.
Fold the egg yolks and chocolate mixtures into the whisked egg whites.
Mix gently until you have a smooth, creamy chocolate ice cream mixture.
Move the ice cream to a freezer safe container and place into the freezer to harden for at least two hours and then enjoy.

Low Carb Lemon Mousse

January 18, 2020 by Easy Keto Living

Low Carb Lemon Mousse Recipe – Easy No Bake Keto Desserts with 4 ingredients including cream cheese and heavy whipping cream – with the video.

Low Carb Lemon Mousse Recipe

This low carb lemon mousse tastes like a zesty lemon cheesecake, yet takes almost no effort to prepare.

For the cream, use whatever cream you can whip into fluffy whipped cream. That may be called heavy, double or whipping cream, depending where you are.

It’s up to you how many carbs you want to allocate to your mousse. So go for the zest and juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon. I like to grate my lemon using a small, microplane grater and squeeze the juice over a sieve to catch any pips.

Stevia is my sweetener of choice and we like our lemon desserts quite sour, so 2 tablespoons works for us. If you’d prefer a sweeter mousse then go for 4 tablespoons. (Or more. ) And, use whatever sweetener you usually use as part of your diet. (Here are more easy keto cream cheese desserts.)

Whisking lemon zest into whipped cream and cream cheese

Keto Lemon Mousse Recipe

1 Cup Cream (Heavy, Double or Whipping)
1/2 Cup Cream Cheese, softened
2-4 Tablespoons Stevia
1/2 to 1 Lemon – juice and zest

Pour the cream into a large bowl.
Using an electric beater, whip the cream until thickened.
Add in the cream cheese and stevia.
Whip until fully incorporated and creamy.
Grate over the lemon zest, using a microplane grater, and squeeze the lemon over a sieve to catch any pips.
Whip in the lemon zest and juice until smooth.
Taste the mousse and add more stevia, if needed.
Place the lemon mousse to a serving bowl and move into the fridge for a few hours to thicken, then enjoy.

Low Carb Broccoli Salad Recipe

January 11, 2020 by Easy Keto Living

Low Carb Broccoli Salad Recipe – Easy Make Ahead Lunch Salads with the recipe and video tutorial.

Low Carb Broccoli Salad

This easy low carb broccoli salad is a brilliant make ahead meal that I often enjoy for lunch or take to potlucks or picnics.

There are only four ingredients in this simple salad:

Broccoli – the whole broccoli is used in this recipe – with the florets chopped into bite sized pieces and stalk grated into the salad for a mixture of flavors and textures. (For more salad inspiration, here are my easy Keto Lettuce Wraps.)

Lemon – you can use half to the whole lemon, both the zest and juice, depending on how many carbs you want to include in your broccoli salad.

Sour Cream – I adore including low carb, high fat sour cream in my creamy salads. You can also mix in mayo or low carb natural yogurt for a different, tangy flavor. (For another easy, creamy salad, here’s a 4 ingredient keto cucumber salad.)

Grated Cheese – adding in a portion (or more) of grated cheese turns the salad into a whole meal.

There are plenty of other ingredients you can add to your creamy broccoli salad, such as:

Salt, Pepper or any other seasoning you like
Sunflower Seeds
Flaked Almonds
Pumpkin Seeds
Chia Seeds
Walnuts
Feta
Goats Cheese

You can store the salad in a salad bowl in the fridge, although my preference is a glass storage container so that I can easily transport the salad if need be. (Here are glass storage containers on Amazon.)

Low Carb Broccoli Salad Recipe

1 Head of Broccoli
1/2 to 1 Lemon
1/2 to 1 Cup Sour Cream
1/2 to 1 Cup Grated Cheese

Chop the broccoli into small, bite sized pieces and move to a salad bowl or glass storage container.
Grate the stalk over the chopped broccoli.
Grate lemon over the broccoli salad and squeeze the juice over a sieve over the salad to catch any pips.
Add in the sour cream and toss to combine.
Add in the grated cheese and mix until fully incorporated.
Place into the fridge for a few hours to allow the flavors to fully develop and help the broccoli soften slightly.
Serve and enjoy.

Keto Alcohol Guide

December 18, 2019 by Easy Keto Living

Keto Alcohol Guide – Tips about alcohol tolerance, list for drinks you can have on the low carb Keto Diet and options to help keep you in Ketosis.

Keto Alcohol Guide

This Keto Alcohol Guide will help you make a responsible choice about whether to include alcohol in your diet and how to do so without being kicked out of Ketosis.

Keto Alcohol Drinks List

First, let me start with the list of the alcohol you can have on Keto as it’s the lowest carb alcohol options:

Absinthe
Bourbon
Brandy
Brut Champagne
Dry Wine
Gin
Grappa
Low Carb Beer
Rum
Scotch
Tequila
Vodka
Whiskey

Make Your Own Mixed Drinks

You may choose to consume your alcohol neat, without mixing anything into it. Or, there are a couple of options to create your own Keto friendly mixed drink, by mixing alcohol with your choice from:

Soda Water
Sparkling Water
Diet Soda
Flavored Sparkling Water
Lemon/Lime/Orange
Berries
Bitters

Avoid any mixed drinks with added sugars – just create your own with some of the above suggestions instead.

So, for example you could make a berry flavored vodka mixed drink by mixing vodka with berry flavored sparkling water and even a handful of fresh berries too.

Does Alcohol Kick You Out Of Ketosis?

It absolutely can, if you have too much or consume alcohol that’s loaded with sugars and/or carbs.

Consider abstaining from alcohol in the beginning of your Keto journey, so that you can become fully adapted and learn what it feels like to be in Ketosis.

Then, when you feel absolutely ready, start small and learn your own limits. You’ll likely find that after being in Ketosis for a while you really don’t need or tolerate much alcohol. So, exercise serious caution.

Consistent alcohol intake may even prevent you from losing weight. So, monitor for yourself what your safe limit is for feeling good and continuing to lose weight – it will be different for everybody.

Plan for Snacks and Electrolytes

This is the key to help you stay in Ketosis and not feel absolutely awful. (Believe me – hangovers on Keto are BRUTAL!)

Plan for the likely snacks you’ll crave when you start drinking. Keep keto friendly nuts, jerky or something sweet like the above pictured easy keto chocolate bark. (Also, click through for ideas for 17 Keto Snacks On The Go.)

Now more than ever it’s important to consume enough electrolytes – water, salt, potassium and magnesium. Safely supplement before, during and after to prevent the worst hangover of your life and slipping out of Ketosis.

Brussel Sprouts are in season at the moment here in Ireland and I’ve been finding bags of the nutritious vegetable for as low as 49 cents for 500g (around 1.1lbs), at the grocery store.

There are many health benefits of brussels sprouts, which make then a great low carb vegetable to include in a ketogenic diet. And, this delicious recipe may even tempt family members to try the dish as a side with a main course, even if they aren’t really a big fan of brussels sprouts.

If you’re new to cooking with brussel sprouts yourself, they are like little mini cabbages, especially the larger sprouts, and they have a natural nutty flavor that perfectly complements the simple ingredients that it’s cooked with, especially when it’s lots of grated parmesan cheese, like in this easy side dish.

If you’d like to ensure that the delicious side dish is vegetarian or even vegan friendly, just use a vegetarian or vegan parmesan alternative.

I suggest including between 2-4 Tablespoons of both olive oil or avocado oil and parmesan cheese in the recipe, because it depends on how much oil you’d like to allocate to your dish and how cheesy you want it.

Start with 2 tablespoons of each, give it all a toss and then add the other 2 tablespoons if you’d like. You can also add in a little fresh lemon juice or zest, balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar for added flavor to the perfect side dish.

You can also swap the cheese for any cheese you like. Or make the dish extra cheesy by including a combination of cheeses such as adding in grated mozzarella cheese or cheddar cheese.

Another option for more creaminess is to swap the oil for heavy cream to creamy creamy, cheesy brussels sprouts.

You can use the garlic powder, as suggested. Or, crush a clove or two of fresh garlic instead or other great options are to use a little bit of onion powder, Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes, which will still keep the parmesan roasted brussels sprouts low in net carbs.

A favorite way to prepare the low carb side dish that appeals to the entire family, especially at holiday meals, is to make a meaty version with plenty of crispy bacon bits tossed through the tender brussels sprouts recipe.

Whichever way you choose to prepare this keto side dish, you’ll be rewarded with a hearty, cheesy side to enjoy during brussel sprouts season.

10 Best Keto Foods

December 3, 2019 by Easy Keto Living

10 Best Keto Foods – A Grocery Shopping List Of Top 10 of the BEST Low Carb Essentials and how to include them in a ketogenic meal plan.

10 Best Keto Foods

By mixing and matching these 10 best keto foods you’ll see that following a low carb meal plan doesn’t have to be complicated.

These are my go to foods that I always have to hand in my pantry and fridge to be able to easily create keto meals without any stress.

Top 10 Best Keto Foods

Here’s the full list of my top keto foods and loads of ways to incorporate them into meals.

1. Full Fat Dairy – Best Keto Foods

Rather than list the dairy separately (which could warrant it’s very own 10 best keto foods post) I’ve grouped low carb, high fat dairy together into an essential group of ingredients to keep to hand.

At any moment I have a selection of high fat dairy options to incorporate into meals. Here are some my favorites:

Butter
Cheese
Cream
Cream Cheese
Sour Cream
Mascarpone
Ricotta

2. Eggs

I start most days with eggs of some type for breakfast. Whether it’s an omelette, scrambled eggs or a keto breakfast hash, as pictured above, eggs make and easy breakfast staple.

3. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is the perfect keto choice for cooking or incorporating into low carb sweet treats. (Here’s coconut oil on Amazon.)

Some even add a teaspoon to smoothies or coffee for a bulletproof, low carb, high fat treat.

Just a word of caution – if you’re not used to ingesting coconut oil this way, start small and work your way up. It doesn’t agree with me, I get terrible stomach cramps, so am always careful with recommending this practice – if you really want to, try a tiny bit first and see for yourself!

4. Best Keto Chocolate

If you have a sweet tooth like me, then keeping keto friendly chocolate to hand means you can indulge your cravings without worrying about the carbs. (Here’s keto friendly chocolate on Amazon.)

My go to keto chocolate recipes include the above pictured chocolate pudding, hot chocolate, chocolate cake and chocolate fudge.

5. Berries

Another sweet treat that can be incorporated into easy keto desserts is to keep berries on hand. Frozen keep for longer and you’re not tempted to eat the whole carton in one go to prevent them from spoiling.

You can enjoy berries in smoothies, keto jam or the above pictured mousse.

6. Nuts & Seeds

Nuts and seeds make an easy keto snack, are high in protein and fiber too. Just be sure to exercise portion control so that you don’t end up consuming your days carb allocation in nuts!

You can incorporate nuts into keto pancakes, bark or the above pictured granola. (For more snack inspiration, check out my ALDI Keto Snacks list.)

7. Broccoli

Broccoli is low in carbs and high in fiber and perfect in a stir fry, omelette or creamy chicken alfredo with broccoli.

8. Mushrooms

Mushrooms are probably my favorite vegetable and I enjoy them simply fried with eggs for breakfast or as a creamy mushroom sauce to enjoy with a meaty keto meal.

9. Avocado – Best Keto Foods

A whole avocado makes an easy snack, you can simply enjoy as is or topped with salt and feta is lovely too.

You can also include avocado in a salad, as a side with breakfast or in a creamy pesto.

10. Tuna

Best keto foods - tuna broccoli casserole

Tuna is a wonderful low carb, high protein food to keep to hand to enjoy in meals like tuna salad, tuna mornay or the above pictured cheesy broccoli and tuna casserole.
