Using AI for recipe ideas!

Can artificial intelligence whip up drool-worthy, low carb meals that pass the taste test? Or will it serve up something closer to culinary chaos with a side of regret? Today, we’re testing ChatGPT’s taste buds to see if artificial intelligence really knows how to cook with real low carb food. We’ve even asked it to include some of our low carb food staples available at Low Carb Grocery, including ThinSlim Foods Bagels, NuPasta, and a few other low carb MVPs.

This is part recipe challenge, part science experiment, and part good fun. Because let’s face it, asking a robot to make a delicious keto lasagna sounds like a recipe for disaster, or a happy surprise. Either way, we’re hungry for answers.

Let’s dive in and see what ChatGPT can cook up to shake us out of our diet ruts and inspire us to try something new.

“Everything But the Carbs” Breakfast Bagel Stack

Start your morning with a stack that’s got all the looks of a greasy diner classic, but none of the regret.

Ingredients:

  • 1 ThinSlim Foods Everything Bagel
  • 1 egg (fried, over-easy, or however you prefer)
  • 1 slice of cheddar cheese
  • 2 strips of bacon
  • 1 tbsp mayo
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • A few slices of avocado
  • Optional: Arugula for fanciness and fibre

Instructions:

  1. Toast the ThinSlim bagel to golden glory.
  2. Fry your egg, sizzle your bacon, and layer them with cheese, avocado, and your mayo-dijon mix on the bagel.
  3. Slam it all together. Eat with two hands and a napkin. Maybe three napkins.

ChatGPT understands that low carb doesn’t mean low fun. This one is a breakfast banger!

NuPasta “Not-a-Carbonara”

Carbonara is a holy grail of creamy pasta dishes. Can ChatGPT deliver a satisfying, creamy bite without carbs—or cream?

Ingredients

  • 1 package NuPasta Fettucine, rinsed and drained
  • 2 slices of pancetta or bacon, chopped
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

  2. While it cooks, whisk egg yolk with cheese and pepper.
  3. Toss drained NuPasta in the hot pain with oil/butter, then remove from heat.
  4. Quickly stir in the yolk mixture. The heat cooks it into a silky sauce. Don’t scramble it!
  5. Sprinkle more cheese on top and pretend you’re in Rome, but you know, Rome with better blood sugar levels.
Keto Bagel Bites of Joy

Back to the Big Question, Can AI Actually Cook?

So, after eight dishes spanning breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert, what’s your verdict? You’ll have to try these recipes out for yourself and see!

If you ask us, AI has some serious keto chops. Sure, it didn’t physically stir the pan or slice the avocado, but in terms of recipe ideation, ingredient pairing, and finding creative ways to use products, it did a shockingly good job!

There were zero-carb recipes, breakfast bombs, delicious desserts, and even imitation pizza. Every recipe was grounded in realistic ingredients and followed our diet prompts. If you’re bored of your current menu rotation and looking to incorporate some new recipes into your weeknight cooking, give AI a try!

We kept our prompt super vague. We asked for low carb and keto recipes that featured some ingredients from Low Carb Grocery. However, if you’re looking to clear out your fridge or have some ingredients that you really love, you can get super specific on what you’re looking for and get some new recipes to try out!

Ready To Try These for Yourself?
