Keto Bai Mock Pina Colada

August 6, 2019 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

Miss your favorite cocktail on keto? You don’t have to! This Bai mock Pina Colada recipe will have you dreaming of a beach vacation from your living room couch!

3 Ingredient Keto Pina Colada

Bai Pina Colada Mocktail - Keto and Trim Healthy Mama Approved
Creamy Frozen Bai Pina Colada Drink for Keto

Coconut flavor just tastes like the beach to me.  We just got back from a great family vacation on the beautiful Florida beaches and I am missing it already.

I have been trying to stick to my food goals more closely since getting back from vacation (since I stuck to nothing while I was there).

A frozen pina colada sounded like just the cocktail to take me back down to the coast but since I’m not drinking alcohol at the moment this is a mocktail.

Keto Bai Mock Pina Colada

After the popular Keto orange creamsicle drink, I had the Bai drinks on my mind again.

This time I decided to whip out the blender and make a frozen treat to sip in this hot weather that we are having in Tennessee. 

The keto Bai mock Pina Colada May not be quite as simple as the creamsicle beverage, but it isn’t complicated by any means. Only 3 ingredients and you could keep it to two if you want.

What Do I Need

For the Bai frozen beverage you need a few ingredients that you probably already have on hand!

  • Coconut Bai
  • Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Unsweetened Almond Milk (regular or vanilla)

If you follow Trim Healthy Mama, Bai beverages are considered on plan. For keto, the Bai is allowed in moderation according to this source.

Keto Bai Pina Colada Drink Ingredients

Directions

Making the Keto Bai Mock Pina Colada is quick and easy.

In your blender, combine about a cup of ice, 1/2 of the coconut Bai (about 9 oz), 1 tablespoon of the Heavy Whipping Cream and 1 tablespoon Almond milk.

Blend, blend, blend!

Pour into a tall glass and enjoy. A shot or two of Rum would make this even better. Although liquor isn’t highly encouraged on THM, it is better to have something like this if you do choose to partake than drinking it with a sugary soda or juice. 

You can find more THM Acceptable alcoholic beverages here. 

Frozen Pina Colada - Keto - Low Carb - Trim Healthy Mama

Keto Bai Cocktail

Variations to the Keto Bai Mock Pina Colada 

  • Want a Creamier Drink? Omit the almond milk & double the heavy whipping cream.
  • Increase the Tropical Flavor – add 4.5 oz of the Bai Coconut and 4.5 oz of a Bai Bubbles Pineapple.
  • Make it a THM FP – To make this a Trim Healthy Mama FP recipe, simply omit the HWC and double the almond milk. 
  • Where’s the Rum? Feel free to add a shot to this if you prefer an alcoholic version. Obviously adding alcohol makes this less waist line friendly but it sure beats a regular, sugar filled beverage.

Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet

September 22, 2019 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

A tangy and sweet strawberry lemonade Bai sorbet to satisfy your sweet tooth without added sugar. 

Healthy & Sugar Free Strawberry Lemonade Sorbet

Low Carb and THM S Strawberry Lemonade Bai Frozen Sorbet
Soft Serve Strawberry Lemonade

I am really wanting to get into the fall spirit. The kids and I have been making mummy granola bars and Frankenstein brownie bites over here in hopes that fall and Halloween are just around the corner. 

But in reality, we had the hottest day of the year here last week and this upcoming week isn’t looking a lot better. A “cold” front is going to lower us down into the high 80’s. Not exactly what I am looking for in a cold front but I guess it beats 100 degrees!

So since it has been so hot and in between my fall decorating, I have wanted something cool and refreshing to end my meals. Last week I made a Bai Mango Sorbet (THM E) and it was so yummy. Since that one turned out so well, I wanted a Trim Healthy Mama S option too. 

This Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet is slightly sour and sweet and kind of reminds me of the frozen lemonade cups you can buy at a baseball game or the grocery store.

Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet – THM S or FP 

Healthy Sugar Free Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet

I like to create healthy desserts for my family with no added sugar that they will love. This frozen lemonade is a hit with the kids and will have you feeling like summer time is just around the corner. 

And you can feel good eating it because it is low carb, has no added sugar and is packed with fruit! So it works for Keto/Low Carb/Trim Healthy Mama and many other healthy eating plans. 

Here is what you need to create this fruity, frozen treat!

Ingredients 

  • Strawberry Lemonade Bai
  • Frozen Berry Blend or Frozen Strawberries
  • Heavy Whipping Cream (To make lighten this up and make it a THM FP, omit the HWC & Sub Unsweetened Almond Milk) 
  • Fat Free Reddi Whip for Garnish (optional, personal choice)

Berry Sorbet Ingredients Using Bai And Heavy Whipping Cream - Keto and Low Carb

Free Weekly THM Meal Plan

Making the Blender Sorbet

Add the frozen berries, Bai and heavy whipping cream to your blender. Blend well until smooth. You can serve immediately for a soft serve consistency. 

Bai Strawberry Lemonade Blender Sorbet Dessert

My preferred method is to spread the strawberry lemonade Bai sorbet in a small pyrex dish. Then place in freezer for 30 minutes to an hour. 

After freezing for a couple of hours, scoop into a bowl and serve with a squirt of Fat Free Reddi Whip. 

Tips for the Perfect Sorbet

Frozen Strawberry Lemonade with Whipped Cream - Keto Dessert Recipe

  • Taming the Sour – The sorbet is sweet and tangy and from the lemonade. Adding the rich and creamy Fat Free Reddi Whip (light blue top) will offset that a bit. 
  • Type of Frozen Fruit – I used a mixed berry blend when I made this recipe. The seeds didn’t blend completely in my blender. If that bothers you, you might want to opt for strawberries only. *Update* I made it again using only strawberries & much prefer that method. 
  • Freeze Time – Freeze the sorbet for 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to serving for a firmer consistency. You can eat it after 30 minutes in the freezer or even right out of the blender (don’t ask me how I know) for a soft serve version. If you leave it in the freezer too long, it will become solid. Just let it sit on the counter a few minutes to soften up.

Low Carb Dippin’ Dots Copycat Recipe (THM FP)

February 21, 2021 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

Love the idea of a simple, make at home ice cream without adding extra sugar? Try this low carb Dippin’ Dots copycat recipe that you can make in just a few minutes. Both kids and adults will love it!

2 Ingredient Low Carb Dippin' Dots 

(Affiliate Links are used in this post. A small commission may be paid to me at no extra cost to you and that helps to support this page. Please see my disclosures page for additional information.)

Want the Keto Dippin Dots? Follow the directions but scroll to the bottom for the Cherry Chip variation.

I remember having Dippin’ Dots for the first time as a kid. It was so cool! A bowl of little frozen balls that seemed to magically melt into your mouth and turn into traditional ice cream. 

And as an adult now, they really haven’t lost much appeal. Fun food is always a welcome little treat! While shopping the other day, I saw some Wyman’s Frozen Blueberries and Greek Yogurt cups  that kind of reminded me of my old Dippin’ Dots friend. 

And while the Wyman’s cups have pretty good nutrition facts, it doesn’t quite fit into my Trim Healthy Mama or low carb lifestyle because of the added sugar. So I made a modified version to eliminate some of that sugar and make a similar product at home for less money. 

Need another use for your wild blueberries? Try this hidden veggie oatmeal (THM E). 

Low Carb Dippin’ Dots Copycat Recipe (THM FP)

Low Sugar - THM FP Frozen Yogurt & Fruit Dessert

So what are Dippin’ Dots? The dots made by the Dippin’ Dots company are tiny balls of ice cream that are frozen using liquid nitrogen. 

But no worries, you won’t need anything like liquid nitrogen to make this low carb Dippin’ Dots copycat recipe. Just some simple, easy to find ingredients that are likely in your low carb fridge right now! 

What You Need to Make Healthy Dippin’ Dots 

Low Carb Dippin' Dots

You only need two ingredients and a couple of common household supplies to make this low carb Dippin’ Dots copycat recipe. 

  • A low carb/low sugar yogurt – I use this one. 
  • A fruit that is lower in carbs like berries – Wyman’s Wild Blueberries work great because of their size.  

From your kitchen, you will also need: 

  • A large baking sheet
  • A piece of parchment paper
  • A small ziplock bag (I use the snack size) 

Making the “Ice cream” Dots 

Instead of ice cream, these low carb Dippin’ Dots are made with a low carb Greek Yogurt. You can use whatever brand you like but my favorite is the Two Good brand. And for my Trim Healthy Mama friends, it is “on plan.”

To make the dots, start by placing a piece of parchment paper on top of a baking sheet. 

Next, fill a snack size ziplock bag most of the way full with yogurt. 

Snip off the end of the bag and begin squeezing small dots onto the sheet. Continue until you run out of yogurt. 

Frozen Yogurt Dots

How Big Should the Yogurt Dots Be? 

Not too big because then they don’t seem as similar to the real Dippin’ Dots. 

But if you go too small, they will melt almost immediately which is no good either. 

The sweet spot that i found was around the size of a pencil eraser. 

Freezing the Low Carb Dippin’ Dots

After you make all your dots, place in the freezer for about an hour. 

Serving the Sugar Free Treat

Low Carb No Sugar Added Dippin Dots Ice Cream

To serve, grab your dots out of the freezer, some frozen berries, a spatula and a couple of serving dishes. 

Using the spatula, loosen the Greek yogurt Dippin’ Dots from the tray. They should come right off if you used parchment paper. 

Scoop a couple of spoonfuls of the yogurt balls into a bowl, add some frozen berries (wild blueberries are awesome because of their small size) and then top with another spoonful or two of the frozen yogurt. 

Serve immediately. It has a similar consistency to Dippin’ Dots and then melts in your mouth. It is also free of any additional sugar & you get some fruit in your dessert! 

How Many Servings Does the Recipe Make? 

Your mileage will vary on this depending on the size of your frozen yogurt dots, size of container that you use and the amount of blueberries or other frozen fruit that you use.

I used a regular sized baking sheet and make the dots about the size of a pencil eraser. 

To serve the low carb Dippin’ Dots, I use these 6 oz custard cups. 

When using this method, I get 6 oz servings. I fill the cups about 1/2 way with the frozen yogurt balls and then the rest of the way with the blueberries. Gently stir to combine and serve immediately. 

Can I Make these Low Carb Dippin’ Dots Ahead? 

You can definitely make the dots ahead of time but I would leave them on the baking sheet in the freezer until ready to use. 

We mixed up a bowl and put it in the freezer for my husband and they clumped together a bit. So if you want that Dippin’ Dots consistency, it is best to leave the yogurt dots flat on the baking sheet in the freezer until you are ready to consume. 

Since these really don’t have to freeze very long, you could make and pop into the freezer before prepping dinner. By dessert, they would be ready to eat. 

More Flavor Combination Ideas

I like the vanilla Two Good yogurt with wild blueberries but there are so many other options that you could try as well. Here are a few!

Triple 000 Salted Caramel and Lily’s Chocolate Chips = Chocolate Caramel 
*THM: If the yogurt is your only protein source in your meal, you could have this as an S. Otherwise, you would want to only use 1/2 of the yogurt cup in your dots to keep it an S.

Keto Option: Two Good Cherry Greek Yogurt and Lily’s Chocolate Chips = Cherry Chip
*THM: the chocolate chips are an S so it would be best to use this combo when wanting an S snack or as a dessert after your S meal. 

Healthy Frozen Cherry Yogurt & Lily's Chocolate Chips - Keto Dessert

Two Good Mango Hibiscus and Frozen Mango = Tropical Paradise
*THM: Adding mango will increase the carbs and turn this into an E treat.

  6. To serve, fill small 4-6 oz cups with the frozen yogurt dots and frozen fruit. The number of servings that you get will depend greatly on the amount of yogurt that you use in each cup. I normally get 2-3 servings per baking sheet of frozen dots.

9 THM Meals For Off Plan Family – Cook Once

February 27, 2021 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

When starting a new way of eating, your family is not always quick to jump on board. Here you will find 9 THM meals for off plan family that is easily adapted for those on plan and following Trim Healthy Mama!

THM Family Meals - Cook One Meal for On & Off Plan

Making two meals for supper is something I’ve never been a fan of (even for my little kids). So I thought I would share how we cook THM meals for off plan family and still only cook one meal. 

Before my husband embraced THM, lost 40 lbs and reversed his Type 2 Diabetes, he ate off plan. I also have and elementary aged child and a toddler as well. And let’s be honest, they might love broccoli today and hate it tomorrow.

Even though I was the only one consistently eating on plan, I didn’t cook multiple meals. I found a way to adapt a main meal to please on plan and off plan family members and now I’m sharing that with you!

9 THM Meals For Off Plan Family – Cook Once

Being able to cook once at dinner time is very important to me. After working all day, cooking two different meals is not in my vocabulary. 

Here are examples of THM meals for off plan family that can be adapted for on plan members and off plan kids or family. It may also work if you want your kids or husband on plan but they have different needs than you.

For example, growing kids that need XO’s or maybe you feel like an E and hubby wants an S. 

We will talk about many possibilities using the same base meals that are all Trim Healthy Mama family favorites. Allowing you to cook once and have your entire family eat! 

Spaghetti 

Spaghetti 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

For spaghetti, I do normally have to cook a different base to serve our pasta on but we all eat the same sauce. The exception is if we are all eating Dreamfields because the whole family likes that. 

S Option: Ground beef/Italian sausage meat sauce over Dreamfields pasta, zucchini zoodles, french style green beans or spaghetti squash. 

E Option: Roasted chicken breast with marinara over a lentil pasta. 

XO Option: Ground beef/Italian Sausage meat sauce over lentil pasta.

Off Plan/Kid Option: Regular  pasta with the meat/sauce of your choice. 

Tacos 

Tacos 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

For taco Tuesday, let’s first talk about the meat. 

This is the best ever taco meat, made in the Instant Pot. You can easily adapt to use lean ground beef or turkey for an E. 

I use this homemade taco seasoning with Nutritional Yeast. It is easy and cheap to make. Mix up a batch and you will have it ready for several weeks of Tacos. 

S Option: Taco Salad – meat, cheese, olives, sour cream, fajita veggies (peppers & onions) or taco meat on low carb tortilla. 

E Option: Tacos in a Bag (My daughter loves this) 

XO Option: Taco meat plus beans in a low carb tortilla. 

Off Plan/Kid Option: Using the same meat, you could offer regular taco shells/tortillas

Chili 

Chili 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

Chili is one that is a bit tougher to do just one meal but you can make it happen. Make Pearl’s Chili from the cookbook.

S Option: Per the book, watch the number of beans you eat. 

E Option: Make Pearl’s chili using extra lean ground meat and add an extra can or 2 of beans (adjusting liquid and adding more if needed)

XO Option: Take the E chili option and serve over hot dogs.

Off Plan Option: Serve whatever chili you make over hot dogs on regular buns. 

Salad Bar 

Salad Bar 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

This might not sound incredibly kid friendly but here is how we do it to make it good for kids and adults.

S Option: Leafy greens with bacon, boiled eggs, cheese, nuts.

E Option: Chickpeas or black beans, cranberries, peaches, apples or pineapple (maybe not all on one salad)

XO Option: Black beans, cheese, southwest ranch, chicken 

Off Plan/Kid Option: I make Lunchable style plates for my kids that are not salad eaters. Meats, cheese, raw veggies and regular croutons or crackers (NOP).  

BBQ 

_BBQ 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

Our favorite is this recipe made in the crockpot & is a THM FP!

S Option: Pulled pork on a salad with cheese, avocado and nuts or on a low carb tortilla quesadilla style. 

E Option: Pulled pork on sprouted bun. 

XO Option: Pulled Pork on Sprouted Bun with a mayo based slaw.  

Off Plan/Kid Option: Pulled pork on white or wheat bun. 

Sloppy Joes

Slim Sloppy Joes in the THM cookbook are a good option for sloppy joes. Just watch out for canned “sloppy joe” sauces. Most if not all will have sugar and unwanted ingredients.

S Option: Serve on a low carb, plan approved bun. 

E Option: Use an extra lean ground meat and serve on sprouted bread or on plan sourdough!

XO Option: Ground beef (not extra lean) on sprouted bread or sourdough.

Off Plan/Kid Option: Regular bun.

Baked Potato Bar

_Baked Potato 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

S Option: N/A

E Option: Baked Sweet Potato or other on plan potato and top with shredded chicken, sugar free bbq sauce or wing sauce and plain Greek Yogurt. The wing sauce is my fave, something about that little bit of sweet and spice.

XO Option: On plan Potato with an S chili or bacon and cheese. 

Off Plan/Kid Option: All of these are kid friendly options, right?!

Pizza

_Pizza 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

Friday night pizza is always fun after a long week. A lot of pizza restaurants will make you a pizza in a bowl with no crust but you can make this family fave at home too.

Once you have all your toppings out, it is easy to throw toppings on a variety of crust options. 

S Option: Tortilla Pizzas – Use low carb tortillas. Another option is to put pizza toppings on a salad. 

E Option: N/A (because I can’t figure out pizza without cheese)

XO Option: Pizza toppings and cheese on a sprouted crust or homemade sourdough crust. 

Off Plan/Kids Option: Traditional crust 

Grilled Meat with Sides

_Steak 2 ways - THM On Plan & Family option

S Option: Any S meat (pork chops, steak, chicken quarters or drumsticks) with Cheesy Zucchini, mayo based slaw, broccoli and cheese.

E Option: Grilled Chicken or Pork Tenderloin (the only pork lean enough for an E). Serve with an on plan potato, brown rice or quinoa. 

XO Option: Steak and baked potato. 

Off Plan/Kids Option: Most off plan people that I know would eat the XO option and be perfectly happy. The only off plan thing I can really think of would be an off plan roll/bread.

Low Carb Baked Feta Pasta from Tik Tok

February 9, 2021 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

A viral video has tons of people baking cheese and tomatoes and tossing them with pasta for an amazingly easy supper. We  altered the original recipe to make this low carb baked feta pasta from Tik Tok & we aren’t sad about it!

Tik Tok Famous Low Carb THM S Baked Feta Pasta

Easy weeknight meals are kinda my love language. Keeping low carb/Trim Healthy Mama/Keto easy is how I stay consistent on the plan. Because let’s face it, no one wants to drag out a cookbook every night.

And this recipe is so simple. It also tastes a little bit fancy which is so nice for a meal that was so easy. If you haven’t made this yet, do it. Like tonight. Seriously.

I made it Saturday night and on Monday I picked up more ingredients from the grocery to make it again!

Low Carb Baked Feta Pasta from Tik Tok

Dump, bake & mix.  Low carb baked feta pasta is that easy. Serve it up with a big salad and a rotisserie chicken breast and you have a full meal with very little effort! 

It looks like this trend started with the FeelGoodFoodie and spiraled from there. And we are pretty happy that she posted it because it is a dinner time game changer.

Trim Healthy Mama S Feta Hack

What You Need: 

  • Feta
  • Cherry Tomatoes 
  • Olive Oil
  • Fresh Basil 
  • Minced Garlic
  • Low Carb Pasta Substitute
  • Rotisserie Chicken (Optional)

What Can I Use For A Low Carb Pasta Substitute? 

Baked Boursin Feta Pasta With Zoodles

There are several options for you if you are trying to avoid the extra carbs in traditional pasta. 

  • Zucchini Zoodles
  • Spaghetti Squash 
  • Palmini Noodles
  • Miracle Noodles
  • Dreamfields Pasta

Baking the Feta & Tomatoes 

In a 9×13 pan, slice a big block of feta lengthwise. Place the cheese in middle of the pan and place cherry tomatoes around the pan. 

Unbaked Feta and Cherry Tomatoes with Olive OIl

Drizzle generously with olive oil and freshly ground pepper. 

Bake at 400 Degrees for 30 minutes. 

Remove from the oven and add 2 teaspoons of minced garlic while it is piping hot. 

Broiled Baked Feta Hack with Tomatoes

Add in a box of cooked Dreamfields. Mix everything well. 

**Note** I would add some pasta and stir. Then add a little more and stir. Just so you don’t have dry pasta.

Sprinkle with fresh Basil and serve! 

If you want to use a rotisserie chicken (and I recommend it!), just slice up some of the warm chicken and serve it on top of the low carb baked feta pasta.

Don’t Like Feta? 

Whether you don’t like feta or just can’t find it (because EVERYONE is making this low carb baked feta pasta), you can still make a similar dish. 

To make the baked feta pasta without feta, you just need a cheese substitute. Here I made this with Boursin cheese and zoodles. 

Follow the same directions but just sub in your favorite cheese. I think it would be tasty with goat cheese as well.
