My 3 Favorite Summertime Keto Snacks!

[@bonniebonnie67]

Kevin--- I have a good onion ring keto idea for you... Take a donut baking pan-, put a little shredded cheese in it, add round slice of onion on top, add some cooked chopped bacon, and a little more cheese. Bake in oven. They should pop out looking like onion rings. You can also add cooked shredded chicken w/ the bacon, and some ranch seasoning. Deliciousness!! God bless!!

[@camicri4263]

Sounds great, thanks

[@ladyryan902]

This sound good. N im thinking melt it together bread it with pork Rhine n air fry it's a hole meal 😊thx

[@marilyn5208]

Yummy

[@eldenl1]

How long and at what temp did you bake them? Was the onion cooked soft? Sounds ingenious!

[@bonniebonnie67]

@@eldenl1 for about 20 minutes at 350. Watch to make sure they don't burn. Even if someone isn't doing keto, this is a great snack. Can't go wrong with cheese, onions and bacon. :) ooooo and maybe add to those some minced jalapenos for some kick. Cheap donut pans will hold it all in place...

[@Tngirl68]

My grandmother always had refrigerator pickles in a Tupperware container. All she used was cucumber, onions, vinegar, water salt and pepper. They were great!

[@pansyvaughan5624]

My Dad also, I do the same

[@annswann1941]

Yep we had those pickles all season long

[@rt3box6tx74]

I don't use pepper, but I put in dill weed, dried or fresh.

[@tristaperkins7112]

That green square Tupperware container where you pull the handle and pull the pickles up out of the juice? That container brings me back! Mother kept one of those full at all times.

[@lindaleftwich5540]

Exactly 🐵🐏🌕🌕🥒

[@michelehyre5527]

I mentioned this before but since your cucumbers are ready, I wanted to remind you. I juiced some cucumbers at the end of the season last year and froze them in ice cube trays. I also froze lime juice in ice cube trays. Over the winter, I pulled out a cucumber ice cube and a lime ice cube. I put both in a glass and filled it with water. I added one drop of stevia. Summer in January! It doesn't take much time for the ice cubes to melt. Just twirl your glass or mix with a spoon. Ususally I just start drinking it and add more water. Delicious! Let me know what you think when you try it out! We love your channel! God bless you guys!

[@georgeingridirwin6180]

Fantastic idea

[@joanies6778]

OMG, I made the cucumber lemonade last year and it was so yummy! My cucumber were stunted due to a cooler, wetter spring, so I had to start over, accidentally droppibg extra seeds. I figured I'll just make extra cuke-lemonaide and freeze it. Cucumbers and lemons are so nutritious! I don't like the taste if stevia and started using monkfruit, which sweetens with no after taste.

[@evelynjoy6809]

Good luck doing keto. I have lost 85 pounds over time doing keto and intermittent fasting (No food or liquid except water after 5pm to 9am). It enabled me to eat anything except tons of carbs and white foods except cauliflower. I had to do it to bring down my A1C down, I have diabetes.

[@MaryWilliams-zl8ls]

I made your beef jerky!! It turned out so good. I appreciate your recipe. I ordered me a jerky gun and cooked it in my oven. I made ours with a little less heat and I added 1/8 teaspoon of liquid smoke. My husband and I really love it. You and Sara both are such excellent teachers and inspire this 72 yr old gal. Love you both. We have been subscribers for over 3 years.

[@AviatorDave]

I had a bottle of Frank's Hot Sauce to the jar of eggs and wait 24 hours and then really enjoy the results of pickled Quail eggs.

[@gracehill4378]

So glad you’re feeling better. Awesome video. Thanks and God bless!!

[@kaybusby7507]

Thanks Kevin great snack even if you're not doing keto . Glad you are feeling better. Stay safe and cool. God's blessings

[@annmarie4794]

I can’t wait until you get 100,000 subscribers. If any online homesteader deserves it, your channel does. You both are so informative. God bless.

[@ketokarbs3671]

That doesn't even matter Their channel is doing excellent😊they have over a hundred million views That is a big money maker

[@leahr.2620]

I have been doing keto for awhile and using chaffels as a bread sub. I had sausage gravy this morning on a chaffel. Chaffels 2/3 cup. Grated mozzarella cheese 1 egg 2 Tabelspoons almond flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder Mix all ingredients till well combined Put about 2 Tablespoons in to a mini waffle iron and bake. Do not over fill or it will run out and make a mess on your waffle iron. Also good as a bun substitute for a bacon cheese burger.

[@kelicowilliams6339]

Chef Kevin, thanks for the Keto snack tips - great ideas!

[@valeriestevens5250]

Kevin, it's nice to see you looking and sounding so well. I'm glad you are feeling better.

[@forrestgump9576]

Wow! Lots of good snack ideas! That egg pealer is awesome! Good to see you feeling better Kevin! God bless and take care🌄😊🐔🐖🐮

Good morning Jake!

[@camicri4263]

Good morning! Blessings

[@sandysimpson9]

I always add celery seeds to my cucumber mix. Loved the egg peeler.

[@CarrieNita]

I add 2 crushed cloves of garlic and 4 or 5 slices of fresh jalapeno to the brine. Yum, makes my mouth water!

[@allenwilson9656]

Good to see you gettin better Kevin, may God continue to bless y'all

[@z144000]

Thank you Kevin. Very good. Prayers. God Bless you all in Love. Maranatha ! ( shared to f/b )

[@lovelearning7467]

I’m a gadget gal and I really enjoyed this video. Thanks Kevin. So good to see you feeling better!

[@paularizzo5217]

All of your snacks look delicious! I have chicken eggs ready to pickle. I think I even have the pickle mix. I haven't tried jerky yet. I have to buy beef from the grocery store & it surely doesn't look as pretty as your home raised beef. I have seen people using a rolling pin to flatten jerky mixed meatballs. That's what I'm gonna do. Have to dry in my dehydrator. And the refrigerator pickles, well, I keep some going all summer. Thank you for the demonstration. You make it look so easy!!

[@suesmargiassi4195]

I set a paint mixing stick on each side, so the rolling pin rests on the sticks. Makes perfect thickness of jerky.

[@debbiemiller7342]

Great job Kevin! Thank you

[@joeyhardin1288]

Thank you. My wife is Hypoglycemic so we keep keto snacks. Pimento cheese is a favorite. In a pound, I add three sweet sliced pickles diced finely, not hardly any sugar but enough to keep the flavor. You could use your pickles. God Bless and stay safe.

[@marygrott8095]

Great video, Kevin! Thank you.

[@sydneymcconnaughhay5947]

I'm so glad to see you up and doing things you enjoy😊

[@vcrouch6041]

You really outdid yourself, Kevin! All the snacks look delicious!

[@Flossie-7]

That quail egg peeler is awesome!

[@leeroybrewer776]

We cook (boil) chicken eggs in instant pot. You will not believe how easy they peel!

[@marycountry]

The best way to hard boiled eggs. It’s worth having an Instant pot just for doing hard boiled eggs.😊

[@nancyfahey7518]

Any trick to it? I'll go borrow my sister's and see how it works.

[@BrittCHelmsSr]

@@nancyfahey7518 Use the 5-5-5 method. Add an inch or so of water to the insta-pot and put in your rack. Put the eggs you want to boil on the rack. Cook for 5 minutes under pressure. Once the 5 minutes are up, release the pressure and allow them to remain in the insta-pot for 5 minutes. When the second 5 minutes is up, the eggs go into an ice-water bath for 5 minutes. When that 5 minute icy bath is up, easily peel and use the perfectly cooked boiled eggs.

[@Jomama02]

I will never do boiled eggs in anything but a instapot now! It's just so very easy! I do the 5-5-5 method unless they are jumbo x-large eggs and I'll do 6-6-6 method. Pressure cook on high 5 minits, less sit for 5 minutes, release the pressure, put in cold water ice bath for 5 minutes. Peel and you have perfect boiled eggs!

[@melissajohnson2935]

I swear by instant pot hard boiled eggs too 😂

[@carterbellwebster]

Man cooking! 😄 Nice job, Kevin!

[@annduffy1356]

Thanks Kevin! Appreciate the recipes!

[@dhansonranch]

Those look good. Good job Kevin!

[@martytrout6252]

I liked all three. Thanks for sharing.

[@jamjar5716]

Great ideas Kevin. Thankyou!

[@RobertJones-ey9qz]

I make some pickles similar to those but it's a big batch. (7 cucumbers, 2 cups onions, 1 sweet pepper) But since dill turns my stomach, they are made with celery seed. If you want, they can be frozen. I would like to try the quail eggs, but there again, something other than dill. I use to have a thing that made jerky like that, I think it was called a jerky shooter. Good stuff.

[@wendyall1]

Thanks, Kevin!

[@furryfurball1]

This is one of the best videos. I am going to try all three recipes.

[@mikenuyen4441]

Reusing a Cool Whip container. The original recycle plastic. I remember looking in several of those containers trying to find something specific. We also had all those colorful mixing bowls too.

[@ebiker9248]

Thanks for the tutorial on quail egg peeler.

[@terrywaters3062]

Love your channel, take care, and God bless

[@johnlord8337]

The cold water treatment keeps the egg yolk cold. The extended boiling time is for properly cooking the cold yolk to perfection - versus oxidizing and greening the sulfurous yolk. The shell and white will cook up longer using the water in the white for making steam - used in the separation of the 3 parts whites - skin - and shell ... that much easier to pull apart. Its sheer logic.

[@johnlord8337]

If you use the plastic tube of a garlic skin separator - the same can be used for rolling and cracking a hard-boiled egg and taking off the shell. The same albeit smaller quail egg can also be rolled in the tube - and then deshelled with ease. I suspect that this is the inside machine process of this quail egg desheller.

[@WalterGregory-c6j]

Hi Kevin! Sixty years ago I put myself through college at Rolla selling pickled quail eggs to bars in the St. Louis.

[@JCINARIZONA]

Love the egg peeler. Hopefully they will expand the idea for chicken eggs. Great video. We are keto and love finding creative ideas like you shared.

[@BrendaLGreen]

Just watched this on Utube, what a great idea with the jerky! Thx for the info Kevin , hope you are feeling better.

[@joyceslusser3148]

That was a great tutorial! Thanks for sharing 😊

[@jenniewolford1631]

I have my grandmothers bowl set like the one Sara has

[@peggythomas2103]

I have a few sets of those bowls, especially one from my grandma. Love them.

[@tiarewilliams9186]

I've sliced cucumbers and dusted with favorite spice (ranch powder, spicy ranch powder) and freeze dried. My adult kids and the grands love them. Yellow squash would be good too.

[@atomicbd100]

Love your porch!

[@kprairiesun]

I think fresh dill really makes pickles taste better. Thanks

[@lisamr40]

Omg Kevin, my grandmother used to have that same Cool Whip container with the Cucumber and onion salad in the fridge. That was one of my favs. She had a garden when I was growing up. It was the best! Tfs! Hope you guys have a great week.

[@elizabethblane201]

Really good video, Kevin! And thanks for making it keto! My only way to eat and stay healthy!

[@rogerpultz5597]

Great video Kevin. I'm going to try the pickles 👍👍

[@pattikm66]

I can't wait to try the jerky! Going to have to use the dehydrator as I don't have a smoker! Thanks for sharing such easy recipes 😋

[@anneo3754]

You might want to use your oven or really know your ground meat source to avoid the possibility of e-coli.

[@pattikm66]

Yeah, that does sound better, cooking it hotter will be safer! Thanks😊 Copperpenny Homestead 🐕🐕‍🦺

[@leeroybrewer776]

Kevin my mother made a similar refrigerator pickle. My wife and I eat these every summer. But she also added sliced onions, strips of bell peppers and celery seeds.

[@belieftransformation]

Great snack recipes for the summer because they’re all so easy! Thank you for sharing! Blessings to all 🤗🇨🇦💗

[@lynngliottone2812]

Looks like you are feeling great now!! These snacks look good

[@josepholander4344]

Thanks Kevin. Looks good . I'm going to try all 3.

[@kojakdurham]

"I'll just be careful," he said, shortly before having a fingertip surgically re-attached. :) I'm going to have to try this 'jerky' recipe. Sounds delicious.

[@amandaaskew7606]

Thanks Kevin! I try to stick to keto too, and when I fall off the wagon, it is because of my love of snacking. These are great options!

[@leahr.2620]

Pork rinds with cream cheese is a good snack.

[@marymiller2183]

I love it! !! All Looks delicious!

[@ElderandOakFarm]

I love making fridge pickles! My husband LOVES pickled quail eggs. We usually buy them from his cousin but we're going to be getting our own here soon! 👏 & the beef jerky- I've stopped eating it because it's SOOOO expensive, and I didn't want to invest $1000+ on a good dehydrator. But smoking them, and using ground beef- I never realized you could do that! We have a lot of Deer meat about to get freezer burnt that I'm going to try this with!

[@MrVTCDN]

Kevin , Thanks for showing me the "Gadgets " I picked up one for the outside kitchen . Just learning how to pickle , and freeze dry this year .We watch your channel as with others like us and I make sure I pass them around. VT

[@mschele64]

I don’t have quail, but last fall when my pullets started to lay I pickled their tiny early eggs and water bathed them. I still have a few pints left and I’ll soon be able to replenish with this year’s new girls’ eggs. I had never even tried a pickled egg! The recipe I found for Amish mustard eggs is my favorite. They taste like deviled eggs. I also did some with red pepper flakes and sriracha for the hubs. Thanks for sharing so much of your life with us!

[@nancymoore4992]

Wonderful 😊 thank you 👍

[@brendastratton1306]

Love your snacks, and will definitely be trying them. I don’t have quail, and I’m not supposed to eat egg yolks, but I will make myself a small batch. Mom, and now I, have made cucumbers and onions for years. It never occurred to either of us to put them into a mason jar, but I’ll try your recipe and put them into a jar. I had to chuckle a bit…I’m wearing that same T-shirt today, except nine is blue. Thanks for the recipes! 😊

[@bryanlloyd1099]

Great video and everything looked delicious!

[@maryarcher8484]

Iike the kosher will fill and spice better easy to keep a gallon in the fridge.

[@LittlebitofDixie]

A must try snack...is cucumber with garlic salt and True Lemon powder...we get the 10 ounce shaker. (You can drizzle a favorite oil over, but not neccessary). Our absolute favorite cucumber for this snack, with a terrific crunch and super mild taste is Armenian (in the melon family). They hold a crunch for days...pre sliced in the refrigerator...They also hold up great in fermenting.

[@richardliles4415]

Great snack recipes. Thank you.

[@pansyvaughan5624]

Kevin wow i love that egg peeler !! Save alot of tome there Super great idea about ground beef jerky thanks I havent bought jerky in years, too expensive Have a blessed day

[@georgeingridirwin6180]

Great snack recipes!! Thank you!!

[@k.p.1139]

Well, you have showed me that beef jerky isn't as hard as I thought. So, I'm going to have to give this one a try. Thanks, Kevin!

[@denisewilson8367]

The reason you put them in cold water helps to shrink the membrane inside the egg. Thats how the egg peels great. It works for farm fresh eggs also.

[@maryshehane7711]

Jason and Brooke at Cog Hill Farm make squash zucchini chips in the freeze dryer seasoned with bbq seasoning salt. Very coke out very crunchy.

[@teresahatcher769]

I just ordered that quail sheller which should be in tomorrow gonna pickle my quail eggs. Thanks for doing this so I know how well it works.

[@cekfraun]

Great video, Kevin! I don't have quail eggs or a smoker, but I am definitely going to try making all of these keto snacks! Thanks for explaining that they can be made with regular eggs, an oven or dehydrater, and non-keto if desired. I am especially excited to know that I can make my own jerky. I love beef jerky, it tempts me every time I'm in the checkout line at the grocery store or Walmart, but it is so expensive that I rarely buy it. Thank you, and God bless you and Sarah and your family.

Hi, Kevin! I've been making your spicy pickled quail eggs for nearly a year now. I purchased the hand crank version of the egg peeler, and you're right, it saves me lots of time. I love it. I didn't know the tip regarding stirring the eggs as they boil. I'm definitely going to try that with my next batch. Loved the beef jerky recipe and the sweet & sour cukes too. Thanks for sharing!

[@lorenstribling6096]

My son makes pickled eggs. When he finishes a jar of dill pickles he saves the juice in the jar. When I boil eggs he will take 3 or 4 and drop them in the pickle jar. After a week he has pickled eggs.
