One of the best ways to coax flavor out of broccoli: Roast it. To level up oven roasted broccoli: Make our no dairy roasted broccoli with cheese sauce. All it takes is a baking sheet, avocado or olive oil, seasonings, and broccoli. We use a no dairy cheese sauce made with nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and garlic.

A dish can do more than make a meal: It can tell our story. This recipe for West African Steak Skewers proves to be a metaphor for Brian and Grace's cross-continental love story. Learn how to make this African Peanut Sauce with a ketchup swap-in.

Learn how to make this hand roll with flaked salmon and cauliflower rice—no rice cooker or fancy knife skills required. Pungent horseradish combined with our creamy garlic aioli give this easy roll a spicy kick. If you prefer a traditional sushi roll shape, use a bamboo mat to roll your nori into a tube shape, then cut into slices. Drizzle or dip in our sweet and tangy Yum Yum Sauce for an extra boost of flavor. 

Simple sautéed green beans with garlic, avocado oil, salt and pepper provide an easy 15-minute side dish to any meat, fish, or plant-based protein. Add extra flavor and interest by sprinkling on sliced almonds and spritzing with fresh lemon juice once cooked.

A keto-friendly take on the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, this handheld delight is made with a gluten-free bun, pork rind breaded chicken tenders, and flavor-packed Primal Kitchen Hot Buffalo Sauce made with avocado oil and no dairy.

Tender on the inside and toasty brown on the outside, with a bit of coarse texture from the light dusting of almond flour, our teriyaki cauliflower bites provide the perfect pop-in-your-mouth snack or vegan side dish. 

Our two-ingredient slow cooker meatballs involve almost zero percent effort—simply dump all-natural frozen meatballs into the slow cooker, pour on some jarred BBQ Sauce, and let the slow cooker work to marry the two into tender meatballs blanketed with a smoky, savory, punchy sauce that are fun to poke with toothpicks.

Achieving a perfect crust on seared scallops might seem like an act of kitchen wizardry reserved for professional chefs, but anyone can master it! In fact, perfect pan-seared scallops are deceptively simple. Once you know the technique, you can have this elegant dish on the table in less than 10 minutes.

Stuffed chicken breasts are a piece-of-cake cooking hack to enhance flavor and variety in plain boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Our keto-friendly stuffed chicken breasts are the antithesis of mundane. Poblanos and Oaxaca cheese add a touch of Tex-Mex flair, and mayo with avocado oil glues the pork rind coating to the chicken breasts.

Cozy and comforting, this easy Italian-style dish goes from pot to plate in about 15 minutes. The secret is trimming down curly low-carb lasagna noodles, rather than making pappardelle pasta from scratch, and adding meat to a jar of spicy Primal Kitchen Arrabbiata Sauce.

Our keto spicy lasagna recipe includes the expected oozing, tender layers of meat-cheese-sauce with a pleasant kick from crushed red chiles commingled with the sunshiny flavor of organic tomato paste and diced tomatoes in our arrabbiata sauce.

Our four-ingredient keto vegan spaghetti is the perfect pantry dish to throw together in less than 10 minutes. Made with hearts of palm pasta and Primal Kitchen no dairy Tomato Basil Marinara sauce, it's a vibrant and flavorful meal.
