Low Carb with the Chilli

Low carb diet with chillies

Curbing appetite

Besides being low carb in themselves, a study has shown that eating Chillies actually curbs your appetite and helps burn calories. Combining Chillies with popular Keto and Banting diets ingredients like eggs results in fantastic low carb meals like devilled eggs, shakshuka and omelettes. When you consider how well they go with ingredients like avocados and cauliflower (as very much as a start), the list becomes endless.

Research suggests that capsaicin, the compound that gives chillies their heat, can boost metabolism and increase fat oxidation, making these recipes not just delicious but also supportive of your weight management goals. From spicy Peri - Peri  chicken to seafood ceviche  these recipes prove that eating low-carb doesn't mean compromising on flavour or satisfaction.
