LCHF substitutes

[ChubbieChops]

I'm looking at my favourite recipes to see how I can adapt them. Normally I would have used some flour to form a roux for thickening sauces and added breadcrumbs when making meatballs, burgers and so on. Are there effective substitutes?

For sauces, you'll find everything here dietdoctor.com/low-carb/ket...

As for breadcrumbs, they're just unnecessary, you'll be able to make everything without them

Thank you so much! That's perfect. I have a lot of old favourite recipes that are going to be even yummier with the addition of these ideas. You're right about the breadcrumbs too I guess. I made stuffing at Christmas with sausagemeat and onions, no bread, and it was fine. Thanks again 😊

You're very welcome, Enjoy!

I've always made sausage meat stuffing without bread, even before I started lchf. X

How do you make it? I just mixed sausagemeat, sage and onion. Any suggested improvements?

[Dogpal in reply to ChubbieChops]

Sausage meat, onion, mushrooms (optional), mixed herbs, garlic (optional). Cook the onion and garlic until soft, add the mushrooms and herbs, cook for a few minutes. Add sausage meat and cook until just cooked through. Transfer to an oven proof dish and bake for around 20-25 mins at 200C.

I wouldn't have thought of mushrooms but always ready for more veg 😋
