Here are 35 low-carb and keto friendly recipes that can be made in the slow cooker or Instant Pot. Low-carb/keto eating is more than a diet, it’s a lifestyle change. These recipes will help you get started or stay on track.

What Is A Low-Carb Diet?

Eating low-carb means that you are overall eating a fewer carbohydrates than usual. There are tons of rules, variations, and opinions as to how to properly follow a low-carb diet. There’s no set-in-stone definition of what a low-carb diet should be but the most common threshold seems to be anything under 100–120 grams of carbs per day. If you’re just getting started with low-carb, I suggest you take the time to research and find out what daily carb intake works for you.

What Is A Slow Cooker?

A slow cooker is an appliance that simmers food at very low heats for a long period of time. The thing that makes a slow cooker distinct from all the other methods of preparing food is that slow cookers can cook food at a much lower temperature than other appliances. You may also know slow cookers by the name ‘Crock-Pot’, this is a trading name owned by Sunbeam Products. Slow cookers are typically used because the low heat that they operate at can allow typically tough, chewy foods to become tender, and ‘melt-in-the-mouth’.

What Is An Instant Pot?

An Instant Pot is a brand of electric pressure cookers (like how Crock-Pot is a brand of slow cooker explained above). A pressure cooker is an appliance that makes use of a fundamental piece of physics to cook food at different temperatures. To boil it down to its most basic level, a pressure cooker prevents boiling from occurring in liquids. This means that the Instant Pot can use much higher temperatures to cook food, leading to faster cooking times for food that would traditionally require a long cook time. There are two types of pressure cookers available on the market: stove-top ones, and standalone units that plug into an electrical socket. The Instant Pot is a type of standalone, electric pressure cooker.
