I thought it would be fun to collaborate with some of the top low-carb bloggers in the industry, to find out what their favourite go-to dish is. Usually these are easy, quick and satisfying. I know my go-to meals are anyway. So I contacted 3 Top Low-Carb Bloggers, and asked them to Share Their Favorite Dish so you could get inspired. Let me know what your go-to low carb dish is in the comments below…

” Hi Heather, Asking me to choose a favourite is REALLY tough. I love so many of my recipes.Here are two recipes I make over and over again. One sweet, one savoury. I will let you choose…it’s very hard for me to choose between recipes I love! Thanks so much for thinking of me!”
Low Carb Easy Taco Pie
This savoury pie looks like it would be a big hit for the whole family. Get the recipe here.
Low Carb Slow Cooker Chocolate Cake
It’s slow cooker season, well, isn’t it always? Carolyn really means business with this chocolate cake! Fellow chocolate lovers will rejoice that this is actually Low Carb, because it tastes sinfully delicious. I made a batch last night. It was moist and incredibly satisfying. I used Stevia instead of Swerve, because that’s what I had on hand. I actually had never heard of swerve sweetener before connecting with Carolyn. Thank you for the tip! It turned out great and everyone was saying MORE, MORE, MORE!

Mexican Zucchini and Ground Beef is her go-to meal. “With my busy schedule, I don’t always have a lot of time for cooking so I put together a great collection of 30 easy low carb ground meat recipes on my blog that I like to refer to for quick meal ideas. Ground beef is one of the most budget friendly cuts of meat too! Ground meat skillet dishes are quick, easy, inexpensive, and delicious. That’s why a ground beef and vegetable skillet meal is my go to low carb dish.”

She also said “We have our venison processed into ground burger meat during hunting season so we eat a lot of hamburger meat based dishes. My favorite and most popular dish is a Mexican Zucchini and Ground Beef dish.” You can find the recipe here.
Now that I think about it, this was one of my Moms go-to meals wen I was a kid. Aaaaahhhh nice memories….

@hblaise My fav LCHF meal is a Low Carb Burger! Taking a look at this image, I can see why this would be a fave. I’ve included my recipe below for the best tasting burgers in the world! I also, put a twist on them to make them moist and Low Carb by substituting chia seeds soaked in milk instead of breadcrumbs soaked in milk. It may sound gross, but it’s actually amazing! Not only does this make the most juicy burgers, it also gives extra omega 3’s. How awesome is that?
I like to slather mine with ketchup & mayonnaise (together on top) and mustard on the bottom… it has to go in that order. Tomatoes have to go on the mayo. I find it makes the perfect “sauce” when the juice of the tomatoes mixes with the ketchup and mayo. I know…I’m weird. 
I have really good feelings about your dinner tonight if you make these. Like, I think I’ll stop by. K, thanks see ya soon!
- 1 tblsp Chia Seeds
- 3 tblsps Milk
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon ketchup
- 1 small onion, minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1⁄2 chili powder
- 1⁄2 garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 lb medium ground meat (beef, turkey, chicken, pork, venison, or a combo)
- Lightly oil grill& heat BBQ to medium
- Soak chia seeds in milk for 2 min. in a bowl
- Add all ingredients and gently mix together well
- Handle the meat as little as possible – the more you work it, the tougher it gets
- Gently shape (don’t firmly press) mixture into burgers about ¾ inch thick
- Using your thumb, make a shallow depression in the centre of each burger to prevent puffing up during cooking
- Place burgers on the grill, close lid & BBQ until NO LONGER PINK INSIDE, turning once, about 6 – 8 minutes per side
- An instant read thermometer should read 160F
- Don't abuse your burgers by pressing with a spatula, pricking with a fork or turning frequently as precious juices will be lost
