    🤔Has anyone tried the TikTok baked feta pasta recipe? I've heard it's delicious. I think I'll try it this week with zucchini noodles.

    Yum. Let us know how it is. I have a bunch of zucchini I need to use up!

    @deepwoodslady Turn that zucchini into zoodles! My DH likes them better than real pasta now! I wish I could grow them here!

    @quiltingjaine I do that quite often. I also make zucchini boats that I fill with different things. I am running out of ideas and no no no on the zucchini bread or cake. I can't resist those temptations lol!

    @deepwoodslady. There's low carb zucchini bread recipes. I didn't make mine low carb because I didn't make it for myself.

    Actually of weeks ago, I made pumpkin muffins using carbquik mix. DH & DS said they were very good. I didn't eat any. I'm not sure if carbquik is keto friendly, but it is low carb. I used monkfruit sweetener in the batter. The fiber in the carbquik, pumpkin and monkfruit made the carbohydrate macros, negative? If that's possible.

    I have carbquick but I haven't used it in awhile. I store the box in my fridge. I'll have to find some muffin recipes. Thanks for reminding me about some of the good keto ideas out there. I was slacking there for awhile!

    @deepwoodslady, Donna, the calorie and macro count is from MFP. There are other recipe calorie calculators online. Also monkfruit sweetener is VERY sweet. I didn't eat any of these muffins, but my family didn't say they were too sweet. I plan on making them again for next week. If you consider making this recipe, you can wait on my opinion first.
