Low Carb Strawberry Cheesecake Cups – THM S

February 7, 2021 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

These no bake low carb strawberry cheesecake cups are an individual dessert that is easy enough for any day but cute enough to serve to company!

Low Carb Strawberry Cheesecake Cups

Last summer I made some No Bake Strawberry Cups that I made for my Bunko group. They were so yummy but they weren’t sugar or guilt free. 

Months have passed and I didn’t forget them. So I went to work on converting it into a Low Carb & Trim Healthy Mama S friendly dessert recipe. 

The good news is that it worked & worked beautifully. I personally think that cheesecake is one of the easiest treats to convert to low carb because it has a similar texture and tastes just like the real thing.

Low Carb Strawberry Cheesecake Cups – THM S

These individual low carb strawberry cheesecake cups start with a faux graham cracker crust. The cups are then layered with a sugar free no bake cheesecake, diced strawberries, more cheesecake and topped off with a few more strawberries. 

And not only are they good, they are so cute too! The perfect little dessert shooter for a small dinner party & my kids like them too. 

I have them planned for our Valentine’s dinner at home this year. 

What You Need for No Bake Low Carb Cheesecake Cups 

Here are the ingredients that you need for these low carb strawberry cheesecake cups. 

  • Wasa Light Rye Crackers
  • Butter
  • Cinnamon
  • Monk Fruit
  • Cream Cheese
  • Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Vanilla Sweet Drops 
  • Fresh Strawberries 
  • 6 Disposable Cups 

Making the No Bake Sugar Free Graham Cracker Crust 

Low Carb Graham Cracker Crust Crumbs

To make this low carb graham cracker crust, you will place 6 Light Rye Wasa Crackers into your blender (I break them up a bit first). 

Next, add the cinnamon, butter, 2 tbsp of monk fruit & blend until it is in crumb form. 

Place two teaspoons of the graham cracker mix into each cup. 

Can I Make the No Bake Cheesecake Without the Crust? 

Sure! Do whatever you like.  

I like the texture of having the crust but it is still  yummy without it! I add one extra layer of strawberries at the bottom when I’m skipping the crust. 

Mixing the No Bake Sugar Free Cheesecake 

The next step in the low carb strawberry cheesecake cups is to make the cheesecake filling. Thankfully you don’t even have to turn on your oven! 

Add your softened cream cheese to a mixing bowl and mix for a minute or so until it is whipped. Next, add the remaining monk fruit, heavy whipping cream and Sweet Drops. 

Continue whipping the cream cheese mixture until it becomes well mixed and the whipping cream starts to fluff up. 

Filling the Low Carb Strawberry Cheesecake Cups 

Low Carb Cheesecake Cups

Place your no bake cheesecake filling into a ziplock bag. Cut off the end and fill each cup about 1/2 way with filling. 

Next, add a couple of tablespoons of diced strawberries. Then fill the cups just under the top with additional cheesecake filling. Finish with a few diced strawberries on top. 

Cheesecake Chill Time 

Low Carb Individual Sugar Free Cheesecakes

Move those little cheesecake dessert cups to the fridge and let them chill for at least an hour. Two hours is really my preference. 

I think they are best eaten same day because the strawberries are prettier. But I have eaten these a couple of days later & they still taste good, just not as visually appealing.

Low Carb Peanut Butter & Jelly Wrap Hack (THM S)

January 20, 2021 by Stacy Craft 3 Comments

If you love PB&J, you need to make this low carb peanut butter & jelly wrap hack quesadilla right now!

Low Carb_THM S PB&J Wrap Hack

I finally downloaded TikTok a couple of months ago after resisting the app for a few reasons. #1. I didn’t need yet another social media time suck in my life & #2. I felt too old!

I’m only in my mid-thirties but it seemed like every tween and teen that I know was spending their time on TikTok so I just decided it wasn’t for me. But peer pressure took over and I wanted to see what it was all about.

And while I’m honestly still not 100% in love, they do have some cool food videos. The latest one is the TikTok tortilla wrap hack. It is basically a tortilla that is cut and wrapped into the cutest little quesadilla that you have ever seen.

But don’t make the mistake that these quesadilla wraps are just for Mexican food. You can put anything into your tortilla. Wrap it, press it & done. A fun meal for the entire family.

Low Carb Peanut Butter & Jelly Wrap Hack (THM S)

Inside of PB&J Crunch Wrap

Peanut butter and jelly roll ups are something that I make pretty often when I am craving comfort food but want to stay on plan.

By making that classic childhood favorite into a pressed wrap, you transform the sandwich into a gooey, melty delicious mix of peanut butter, jelly and a little bit of crunch!

What You Need for a TikTok Inspired PB&J Wrap Hack

  • Sugar Free Peanut Butter – this is by far the best option out there
  • Simply Fruit Jelly
  • Peanuts
  • Frozen mixed berries
  • Low Carb Tortilla

Peanut Butter & Jelly Low Carb Wrap Ingredients

Steps to Wrapping the Quesadilla

Wrap Hack Quesadilla with PB&J

There are 5 steps to properly prepare a low carb peanut butter and jelly wrap hack quesadilla.

  1. Find the center of the tortilla with the tip of a knife. From the center, cut down to the end of the tortilla.
  2. Fill each quarter of the tortilla with a different filling. For this pb&j wrap, these are the steps.
    1. Start in the lower left quarter and apply a generous spread of peanut butter.
    2. In the top left quarter, apply a thin spread of peanut butter (this helps the toppings stick ) and a handful of peanuts.
    3. In the top right quarter, add a thin spread of peanut butter and a tsp of Simply Fruit jelly. Spread the peanut butter to the edge but keep the jelly in the middle to eliminate spilling when cooking.
    4. For the bottom right quarter, add a small handful of frozen blueberries or mixed berries. You can smear a light peanut butter layer on this section prior to the berries to help seal the wrap.
  3. Starting with the bottom left quarter, fold up over the top quarter. So your peanut butter will lay on top of the peanuts. Next, fold the two triangles on the left over onto the jelly quarter. Finally, fold the three quarters over the frozen berries which will result into one triangle.
  4. Place the wrap into a skillet or a panini press and cook until warm and the outer tortilla has browned slightly.
  5. Enjoy!

Tips for Making the Best Wrapped Quesadilla 

  • This PB&J wrap is best made in a skillet. I love using my panini maker but it makes a pretty big mess pressing out the jelly and fruit. 
  • Consider using these tortillas. They are a little more pliable and easier to fold. 
  • Don’t add too much of any topping. If you overfill, it will spill out and make a big mess! 
  • Considering skipping the peanuts? Don’t! I don’t even like crunchy peanut butter but these add a crunch that makes this wrap amazing.

30 Minute Keto/THM S Cheesy Salsa Chicken With Cauli Rice

June 3, 2018 by Stacy Craft 36 Comments

This Keto/THM S Cheesy Salsa Chicken With Cauli Rice will be on your table in 30 minutes. 
Easy Green Salsa Chicken with Cauliflower rice Recipe - Keto- low carb - Trim Healthy Mama S Meal

Easy and quick are what I need these days in order to stay on track. This creamy, cheesy sauce is rich and decadent (and covers the taste of the cauliflower rice). I know this goes against the new rage of low carb cauliflower rice but I just can’t get on board , UNLESS it is covered in some cheesy goodness! I can get on board with anything that is swimming in cheese and salsa.

This cheesy salsa chicken with cauli rice meal will fit with your Keto/low carb/THM S lifestyle and is also pretty budget friendly! I made it for less than the cost of 2 value meals at a fast food restaurant.

I love this cheesy salsa chicken with cauli rice meal because you only need a few ingredients and they are all pretty shelf stable or long lasting. Pull out some frozen chicken tenderloins, riced cauliflower, a bottle of salsa verde and a block of cream cheese and you are ready to make a quick dinner that will conform with your low carb lifestyle.

30 Minute Keto/THM S Cheesy Salsa Chicken With Cauli Rice

When you start a low carb lifestyle, cauliflower rice is almost always suggested. And while it is a great way to fill up your plate and bulk up your nutrition, I didn’t love it. But I found that if I layer it in delicious cheese and spicy salsa it turns into a great base for chicken. 

And now cauliflower rice finds a way to get into a bunch of my meals & I’m not sad about it! I recently made a really yummy (and totally easy) 20 minute Keto Buffalo Chicken Dip casserole that turns your favorite appetizer into an easy weeknight meal. Pin it here for later.

Cooking Directions for Keto Salsa Verde Chicken & Queso Cauliflower RiceSalsa Cream Cheese Cauliflower Rice

The first thing you want to do is make sure you have your cream cheese softening up so it will melt nicely in your sauce. Next, get your chicken tenders cooking.

Chicken Tenders in pan

I added a little pepper and some fajita seasoning that I had on hand. If you are a Trim Healthy Mama purist (I am not) you may want to ensure that it fits within the guidelines. I love the overall method of THM but I just kind of go with the flow and don’t mind an off plan ingredient here or there. You could make your own seasoning that would fit into the plan perfectly.

Browned chicken in panGet your chicken completely cooked and then remove it from the pan. Cover it with some foil if you are worried about it getting too cold but the sauce comes together pretty quickly.

Make The Cheesy Queso Sauce:

Next, you want to take your softened cream cheese and cut it into fourths. This will help it to melt a little quicker.

Cream cheese cut cubes

Now you need to add your bottle of Salsa verde. Cook it over medium-low heat until the cream cheese is completely melted.

Salsa verde and cream cheese

Once the sauce comes together, add your cooked chicken back on top for a minute or two. Just make sure the sauce and chicken are warm.

While the chicken is mixing with the sauce, put your cauliflower rice in the microwave. Cook according to the directions. Then layer the cauli rice, cheesy salsa verde sauce and chicken. The result is a satisfying cheesy chicken with cauli rice meal that will make you forget about carbs!

Serve It Up:

Cheesy Salsa Verde Chicken Plated The way that I prepared it, there was enough for a dinner and I ate the leftovers for lunch the next day. I did have a bit of unused sauce so if you added more chicken, the sauce could stretch farther since it is so rich. I have also wrapped this meal up into a green salsa queso drenched enchilada that is a family favorite! Pin it!

20 Minute Keto Buffalo Chicken Dip Casserole (THM S)

January 9, 2021 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

Precooked chicken, wing sauce and ranch make this Keto buffalo chicken dip casserole quick, easy and delicious!

Keto Buffalo Chicken Dip Casserole

Buffalo chicken dip is something I have made so many times that I can do it with my eyes closed. I even included it in this huge list of Keto friendly dips that you can serve with pork rinds. It is a household favorite around here.

The dip is one obsession. The newish Tyson unbreaded buffalo chicken strips are my other obsession. I slapped them together, added a veggie and created this simple Keto buffalo chicken dip casserole that bakes in just 20 minutes.

Buffalo Chicken Strips with Buffalo Wing dip Cauli Rice Casserole

Cauliflower rice is combined with traditional buffalo chicken dip ingredients to create a creamy base for this casserole. Next, you layer the super convenient Tyson buffalo strips on top of the cauli rice. Bake it & enjoy. It really is that easy. 

It reminds me of a chicken and rice entree meets buffalo chicken dip appetizer. So so good. 

Here is what you need for this Keto buffalo chicken dip bake:

  • Frozen Cauliflower rice
  • Cream Cheese
  • Wing Sauce
  • Ranch
  • Shredded Cheddar
  • Tyson Unbreaded Buffalo Tenders

And let’s just talk about these Tyson unbreaded buffalo tenders (you’ll thank me later). They are amazing! It is our go to “didn’t cook & have no plan” meal after a busy day. And all my Trim Healthy Mama friends – they are approved and “on plan.”

They are precooked so all you have to do is heat them in the oven or my preferred method, the air fryer. We eat them on salads, low carb tortillas for a quick wrap and even on pasta. 

If you like these buffalo, don’t forget to try the blackened strips too. Just as good! 

Buffalo Cauli Rice Casserole Prepped

Cooking Keto for One or For Two 

I am listing instructions in the recipe for one person and for a couple. 

My sweet husband despises cauliflower rice and won’t try anything that includes it. So I made this just for me. Since it is so easy & virtually any real cooking, I whipped it up for an easy lunch. 

I’ve also added measurements if you want to make it for two. And if your whole family would eat it (my littles won’t eat spicy or cauliflower or ranch or anything HA), you could easily double the couples recipe to get a casserole that would feed 4. 

Assembling the Low Carb Wing Sauce Chicken Casserole 

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray your casserole dish with olive oil. (This is the casserole dish that I used when making the recipe for one & it works perfectly.)

Add the cauliflower rice, ranch, buffalo sauce, cream cheese and shredded cheese into the casserole dish and mix until combined. 

Ranch & Wing Sauce with Cauliflower Rice

Next, place the Tyson buffalo strips on top of the cauliflower base.

Bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is warm and the cheesy cauliflower is bubbling on the sides slightly. 

Serve with fresh celery for scooping up the extra rice!

Sugar Free Muddy Buddies THM S

You might call it puppy chow or maybe muddy buddies. Either way, you know it is a delicious peanut butter and chocolate cereal treat, coated in powdered sugar.

Sugar Free Muddy Buddies THM S

THM S Muddy Buddies - sugar free

I have been on a Wasa cracker candy kick the last couple of days. Earlier this week I made some killer Wasa cracker toffee (Christmas Crack) and it was seriously amazing.

Like so good that you need to pin it now so that you don’t forget it. 

Ok, back to the puppy chow. Making this is super easy and if you have made puppy chow before, you can make this in just about the same amount of time! 

What You Need for THM Muddy Buddies 

To make this THM S dessert, you need 6 ingredients. 

  • Wasa Light Rye Crackers
  • Butter
  • Jif No Sugar Added Peanut Butter (Or other on Plan PB – Here is a great list of options)
  • On Plan Chocolate Chips
  • On Plan Confectioners Sugar
  • Vanilla 

Making the Low Carb Muddy Buddies 

Low carb puppy chow is made almost the same way that the sugar loaded version is made. The biggest difference is in prepping the Wasa Crackers. 

Making the “Cereal”

wasa broken for Puppy Chow

You want to break the cracker in half. Next, break each half into half again. Then break each piece in half once more. So you will make each Wasa into 8 pieces. 

I try to keep them all about the same size but just go with it. It doesn’t need to be perfect. 

Tips for Making the Wasa “Cereal” Close to the Regular Recipe

  • I tried cutting them (ya know to get equal looking pieces because the perfectionist in me wanted them to look better). Don’t do that. It makes a big mess and it is just a lot easier to break it with your hands. I do think it tastes better in smaller pieces so try and get them as uniform as possible. 
  • Only use about 3/4 of the Wasa package. I feel this way when using Chex cereal too but it is particularly important for the Wasa recipe. You want good peanut butter & chocolate coverage on each cracker piece. If you use the entire package of crackers, you won’t get that. 

Broken Wasa Cracker Pieces

Make the Peanut Butter Chocolate Coating

Sugar free peanut butter, chocolate & Butter

Melt the peanut butter, chocolate chips and butter in a medium saucepan over low heat until melted and smooth. Add the vanilla and pour over the broken Wasa crackers. 

Using a spatula carefully cover all of the Wasa pieces. 

Wasa Crackers covered in Chocolate & Peanut BUtter

Coat The Crackers with Confectioner’s Sugar

Add the Swerve powdered sugar and the chocolate covered Wasa into a gallon ziplock bag. Seal the bag and shake until most of the sugar is covering the crackers. 

Remove the sugar free muddy buddies from the bag and spread out on a large sheet of wax paper to dry. 

It takes about an hour. 

Store in an air tight container or a zip bag. 

THM S Sugar Free Puppy Chow Wasa MixTHM S Sugar Free Puppy Chow Wasa Mix

Serving Size

1 Wasa Light Rye cracker is permitted in an S setting. If you break your crackers into 8 pieces, the will be your serving size. 

It doesn’t seem like much but they are quite satisfying so make yourself a plate of 8 pieces and enjoy!
