About the Recipe

This is the third meal we had on our 3 day extreme keto/almost carnivore meal plan. We cooked the salmon fillets the night before, when we were making the others, so all we had to do was make the romaine salad and new Hero quesadillas. Only 2g net carbs and 715 calories without the dressing.

Ingredients


  • 2 salmon filets

  • salt & pepper to taste

  • 2 tbsp ghee


  • 4 cups romaine lettuce

  • 2 tbsp no carb salad dressing of your choice

  • 2 Hero tortillas

  • 1/2 cup freshly shredded sharp cheddar

  • 2 eggs


Preparation

Step 1


Wash and dry romaine leaves and toss with the no carb salad dressing of your choice.



Step 2


Heat 1 tbsp of ghee over medium heat in a non-stick pan. Place salmon filets skin side down in pan. Season salmon with salt & pepper to taste. Cook 2-3 minutes on each side. Set salmon aside.



Step 3


Shred sharp cheddar cheese.


Step 4


Heat the other tbsp of ghee over medium heat in the same pan. Place one tortilla in pan and fill with 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Once cheese starts to melt, fold tortilla over onto the cheese. Place another tortilla in pan and fill with 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Once cheese starts to melt, fold tortilla over onto the cheese and flip the other quesadilla. Remove the first quesadilla and flip the second one until golden brown.
