We love matcha, it’s one of the superfoods with a real claim to being super. Matcha-loaded ice cream is one of the best ways to eat it too and this recipe nails it.

17. Matcha Avocado Ice Cream

So what if you added avocado to matcha ice cream? Very tasty, very healthy, that’s what. And here’s how to do it.

The basic recipe uses raw sugar or coconut sugar, but it wouldn’t be difficult to use the appropriate amount of a stevia-based sweetener.

22. Sugar-Free Meringue Eton Mess

Eton Mess is a traditional English dessert that is usually way out of bounds on a keto diet because of the sugar-packed meringue in the recipe. Sugar-free meringue comes to save the day!
