My husband recently went on the Keto diet and I started making recipes that fit the Keto diet. You can easily make all of these Keto meals in your crockpot. However, all of these are delicious so Keto or not give these a try!

What is Keto?

The ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that is similar with the Atkins and low carb diets. So if you are following either of those diets these recipes are for you too!

The Keto Diet involves substantially reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. Cutting carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis.

When this happens, your body becomes incredibly efficient at burning fat for energy.

Food Allergies-

Gluten-Free- I make all my recipes gluten-free since my husband has celiac disease, which means he is allergic to gluten. I always make sure to use gluten free ingredients Kikkoman gluten free soy sauce when making these meals to ensure that it is gluten free. If you are not gluten-free feel free to use any products you like.

Need A New Crock Pot?

My favorite is this Crock Pot 7 quart Programmable Slow Cooker. First and foremost, I love being able to set the timer in case I’m not home when the food is finished cooking and it just switches to warm. Plus you can lock the lid and just carry it to a party. Not only is it easy to carry but also you will never lose another Tupperware or serving dish again at a potluck party!

Fiesta Crack Chicken

What do you get when you put the two most popular crockpot recipes, Crack Chicken and Salsa Chicken, together? Fiesta Crack Chicken! This chicken has the best of both worlds with a creamy ranch chicken sauce and all the flavor from salsa chicken. This quick recipe is just as easy with no chopping or prep. Pour it all in and dinner is ready when you are!

Fiesta Crack Chicken

I was trying to decide what to make for dinner one morning and didn’t have everything to make crack chicken so I was trying to think what else I could make. I had a leftover jar of salsa in the fridge and thought to myself, what if I add salsa to crack chicken and boom…Fiesta Crack Chicken. This creamy salsa chicken was a hit in our house!

If you don’t like the original crack chicken then you may want to try this since the salsa adds a lot of flavor and totally different taste.

One of my favorite things about this recipe it that it includes the veggies so I have one less thing to prepare when I get home. Also, whenever I make meals that include rice I always use my rice maker. This really makes dinner a breeze because I don’t have to make it when I get home. We literally walk in the door and make our plates. I use the Zojirushi Rice Maker which is amazing. It has a timer and setting for brown or white rice which is helpful.

Food Allergies

Gluten Free- All my recipes are gluten free because my husband has Celiac Disease, which means he is allergic to gluten. This recipe uses a ranch packet. I always use Hidden Valley Ranch Packets because they are certified gluten free. If you would rather make your own here is a link to a recipe for that too. Just always make sure you check the ingredients in any packet you purchase to confirm it doesn’t have gluten in it.
