Eating Keto At Nando’s

February 15, 2026 by Easy Keto Living

Eating Keto At Nando’s – A look at low carb friendly foods on the menu – showing you how I created a meal with only 7.2 net carbs.

Eating Keto At Nando’s

Eating Keto At Nando’s makes following a low carb lifestyle so much easier. It’s great that there are tasty options to enjoy while you’re out and about, or when you don’t feel like cooking but want a meal that will help you stay on plan.

As you’ll see, Nando’s is actually one of the easiest places in the UK to stay low carb – if you order carefully.

What I Ordered

I kept things really simple and ordered the following 3 items:

4 Boneless Chicken Thighs
2 Slices of Grilled Halloumi
Nando’s New Pickle Mix

Net Carb Breakdown

Here’s a closer look at the carbs for each of the 3 menu items that together came to a grand total of 7.2 grams of net carbs, an excellent total for a full restaurant meal:

Boneless Chicken Thighs – 0.3 net carbs – chicken is naturally very low in carbs, making it perfect to form the bulk of your meal. It’s incredibly high in protein (this portion has 85.5 grams) and will keep you full without pushing up your carb intake.

Grilled Halloumi Cheese – 1.3 net carbs – indulging in two slices of soft, salty halloumi, that’s high in fat and protein while being low in carbs, is the perfect addition to this meal.

Pickle Mix – 5.6 net carbs – I was excited to try this new addition to Nando’s menu – herby pickles with pickled cauliflower. The dish certainly packed a flavor punch, while adding the bulk of carbs to the meal, I did feel it was worth it to help balance the richness of the rest of the meal, while providing a healthy vegetable option to the plate.

Overall, I enjoyed every morsel and came away feeling satisfied and full following the tasty, hearty and healthy meal.

More Keto Friendly Nando’s Options

Here are more ideas for foods you could enjoy at Nando’s, which may also depend on your daily carb intake, it’s best to view the menu online or download the app to view the nutritional info for each menu item to determine whether it fits into your diet:

Chicken Butterfly
1/4 Chicken
1/2 Chicken
Whole Chicken
Wing Roulette
Chicken Wings
Halloumi Sticks (avoid the chilli jam or honey that they are served with)
Spicy mixed olives
Peri-peri nuts
Coleslaw
Rainbow Slaw
Tenderstem Broccoli
Avocado

Foods To Avoid

To keep your meal low carb, it’s best to avoid:

Chips
Garlic Bread
Rolls
Sweet chilli sauce
Burgers
Wraps
Rice
Dessert

Almond Milk – essential for an almond milk hot chocolate is the almond milk itself! Make sure that you include unsweetened almond milk so that there aren’t any other added sugars.

Combining the ingredients together in a mug and saucepan

Heavy Cream – I like to add in healthy fats by including a portion of heavy cream. If you’d prefer for the healthy hot chocolate to be dairy free then use coconut milk instead.

Dark Chocolate – include keto friendly hot chocolate such as 85% dark chocolate without any added sugar. You could also swap for sugar free chocolate chips if you’d prefer instead.

Extra Ingredients – you can go beyond the 3 ingredients by mixing a little stevia or your sweetener of choice through the hot chocolate for a sweeter hot chocolate or flavor with an extract such as a little bit of peppermint extract for a mint chocolate drink.

As for the toppings, you can choose to top your hot chocolate with an indulgent swirl of whipped cream or scoop of keto ice cream for an extra creamy, decadent comforting warm drink.

Keto Zucchini Casserole Recipe

August 18, 2024 by Easy Keto Living

Keto Zucchini Casserole Recipe – Easy Super Cheesy and Creamy Low Carb Bake with only 4 ingredients – with the full video tutorial.

Keto Zucchini Casserole Recipe

This keto zucchini casserole recipe makes a quick and easy side dish or main meal that’s loaded with creamy, cheesy goodness and the whole family will enjoy.

There are also plenty of ways to adapt the great recipe to your own tastes, dietary requirements and what’s easy to find at a grocery store near you.

I bought all of the ingredients at affordable ALDI, making it a brilliant budget friendly meal too.

The Simple Ingredients For The Easy Recipe

Here are the 4 basic ingredients you’ll need for the easy zucchini casserole recipe, plus lots of ideas for variations:

Fresh Zucchini – I’ve included 2 fresh zucchini that are sliced up to create the base for the dish, although you can use as much zucchini as you’d like, depending on how many people you are feeding and whether the dish will be a side dish or main meal.

You can feel free to swap for any other low-carb vegetables, or include a mix of vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms or cabbage. You could also make it meaty by adding in sauteed ground beef or chicken breast.

Adding the creamy sauce ingredients to the sliced zucchini

Sour Cream – a great way to add a tangy creaminess to the creamy sauce of the main dish. You could swap for cream cheese instead if you’d prefer, which is another creamy ingredient that’s low in g net carbs.

Heavy Cream – to add luxurious creaminess to the keto diet friendly meal, heavy cream or heavy whipping cream is the perfect inclusion in the creamy cheese sauce.

Topping the baking dish with shredded cheese

Grated Cheese – plenty of shredded cheese is mixed through the casserole as well as topped before going into the oven for a golden brown, super cheesy topping that the entire family will enjoy, including picky eaters.

You can include any type of cheese you’d like such as sharp cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Pepper Jack or Gruyere cheese.

Seasoning – I’ve left the recipe without the mention of seasoning because we adore it as it is with the flavors of the sour cream, heavy cream and cheese combining together with the zucchini.

You can feel free to add in your choice of seasoning though from sea salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder or onion powder.

Keto Zucchini Casserole Recipe

2 Fresh Zucchini
1/3 to 1/2 Cup Sour Cream
1/3 to 1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
2/3 to 1 Cup Grated Cheese

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F and get out an over proof baking dish.

Add the sour cream and heavy cream, toss well to combine with the sliced zucchinis, then add in half of the grated cheese, mixing through to incorporate.

Or, swap the keto diet friendly protein for sliced hard-boiled eggs for egg mayo filled lettuce leaves. For a meaty meal, you can fill your chosen type of lettuce with cooked ground chicken or ground beef.

Seasonings – a great option is to simply flavor your filling with sea salt and black pepper, but you could also add in garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes.

Vegetables – add in chopped vegetables for an even more nutritious low-carb recipe, choose from chopped green onions, water chestnuts, red onion, bell pepper or crushed fresh garlic or fresh ginger.

Chocolate Mousse With Coconut Milk

July 27, 2024 by Easy Keto Living

Chocolate Mousse With Coconut Milk Recipe – How to make the best easy creamy 3 ingredient low carb, keto, sugar free, dairy-free pudding dessert – with the full video tutorial.

Chocolate Mousse With Coconut Milk

This chocolate mousse with coconut milk makes a super quick and easy sweet treat that’s keto, low carb, sugar free and dairy free friendly too.

The best part is that you only need 3 ingredients to create the creamy mousse that will satisfy your sweet tooth and chocolate cravings, while helping you on your way to achieving your own personal health and weight loss goals.

You’ll find that the dessert doesn’t have a strong coconut flavor, with the cocoa powder and stevia working perfectly to create the flavors of a traditional mousse.

The Simple Ingredients For The Easy Recipe

Whisking the 3 keto simple ingredients for the easy recipe together

Here are the handful of ingredients that you’ll need for the effortless dessert, as well as good substitute ideas for extra ingredients to adapt the chocolate treat if you’d like.

Canned Coconut Milk – when you pop a can of coconut milk into the fridge and leave it overnight, it separates into two layers – coconut cream on top and coconut water on the bottom.

The coconut cream on top is what’s used as a heavy cream substitute in the dairy-free recipe to whip into perfectly creamy and rich whipped cream that the chocolate and stevia are blended into to form the fluffy mousse.

You can save the watery liquid that’s left at the bottom of the can to blend into smoothies and shakes. Ensure that you use unsweetened coconut milk that you’ll find at grocery stores, so you don’t include any added sugar in the carb count.

Cocoa Powder – to achieve the rich, chocolate flavor in the indulgent dessert, add on 2 tablespoons or more of cocoa powder or cacao powder.

Stevia – to keep the dessert low in grams of net carbs, stevia is used to sweet the mousse. You can swap for your low carb sweetener of choice such as monk fruit sweetener, powdered sugar alternative or an erythritol blend instead.

The whisked quick easy keto decadent dessert

The recipe suggests 2 tablespoons each of cocoa powder and stevia, I’d suggest start with the 2 of each, then taste and if you’d prefer a mousse that has a richer chocolate flavor add more cocoa powder, or if you’d prefer a sweeter mousse, add more stevia to satisfy your taste buds perfectly.

Flavor – you can adapt the flavor of the elegant dessert by adding a little vanilla extract or a half to a teaspoon of one of the following extract flavors: orange extract, coconut extract or raspberry extract.

Toppings – there are plenty delicious options to top your chocolate coconut mousse with that will further satisfy your sweet craving while being ketogenic diet friendly, such as topping with dark chocolate shavings, dark chocolate chips, fresh berries, shredded coconut, vegan ice cream or whipped cream.

How to make keto chocolate mousse with coconut milk

Chocolate Mousse With Coconut Milk Recipe

1 Can Full-Fat Coconut Milk
2 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
2 Tablespoons Stevia

Place the can of full fat coconut milk into the fridge overnight to separate into coconut cream and water.
The following day, remove the can from the fridge, open it up and carefully remove the thickened coconut cream from the top of the can and place it into a large bowl, saving the watery liquid at the bottom of the can to use in smoothies or shakes.
Using an electric mixer, hand mixer or a whisk attachment, blend the coconut cream until it becomes soft, thick cream.
Add the cocoa powder and stevia to the whipped coconut cream, then whisk again to fully incorporate and you have a creamy dark chocolate mousse.
Move the move to a serving bowl or ramekins and enjoy straight away or move to the fridge for a few hours or overnight to thicken and store any leftover mousse in an airtight container.

Scrambled Eggs With Cream Cheese Recipe

July 23, 2024 by Easy Keto Living

Scrambled Eggs With Cream Cheese Recipe – How to make a quick and easy creamy low carb high protein keto friendly breakfast idea – with the video tutorial.

Scrambled Eggs With Cream Cheese

These scrambled eggs with cream cheese make an easy, creamy and super quick breakfast that’s low carb, high protein and keto friendly.

You’ll discover that whisking rich cream cheese into a scrambled egg mixture is the best way to create super creamy eggs that are an indulgent way to start your day, while helping you stay on plan to achieve your own personal health and weight loss goals.

The Simple Ingredients For The Easy Recipe

Cooking the low carb high protein breakfast

Here are all of the basic low-carb diet ingredients that you’ll need for the simple recipe:

Large Eggs – include 2-3 eggs per person, depending on how many eggs you usually like in your soft eggs meals.

Cream Cheese – the luxuriously creamy ingredient is naturally low in carbs and high in healthy g fat and g protein. You can swap some or all of the cream cheese for sour cream or heavy cream, depending on what you have in your kitchen, and still achieve eggs with a creamy texture.

Seasoning – sprinkle eggs with salt, black pepper or your seasoning of choice such as garlic powder, onion powder or even Italian seasoning.

Adding spinach into the easy keto breakfast

Spinach – to make the dish into a whole, balance meal and balance the richness of the other ingredients, I’ve added in a handful of nutritious spinach in the last minute of cooking. You can swap for a little chopped green onion or chives if you’d prefer.

You could also add in more low carb vegetables such as chopped cherry tomatoes, red pepper, mushrooms or avocado, cooking the vegetables if you’d prefer before you cook the eggs.

More Cheese – in addition to the cream cheese in the eggs, you can crumble a little bit of feta cheese or grate over parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese or Monterey Jack for extra cheesy eggs.

Scrambled Eggs With Cream Cheese Recipe

2-3 Large Eggs
1/2 to 1 Tablespoon Cream Cheese
Handful of Spinach, washed
Salt, Black Pepper & Seasoning, to taste
Olive Oil, Coconut Oil or Butter, for frying

Heat a large skillet or nonstick pan on the stove top over medium heat to high heat and melt butter or oil.
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, add in the 1/2 to 1 Tbsp cream cheese, salt, black pepper and any other seasoning you’d like.
Whisk eggs and cream cheese mixture together until smooth and creamy.
When the nonstick skillet is hot enough, pour in the whisked egg mixture and quickly move the eggs around the bottom of the pan to scramble.
Once almost done, add in the washed spinach and cook until the eggs are done to your liking and the spinach has wilted.
Serve cream cheese scrambled eggs immediately as is or topped with more seasoning and enjoy.
