  • #91 Low-Carb Mushroom Chilli That’s Keto Vegan Magic
    May 22 2025

    Mushroom Magic: Low-Carb Chilli That’ll Smoke Your Socks Off

    What happens when you mix sweet chilli plants from B&M, enough mushrooms to fill a small forest, and a dash of sass? You get Rachel’s now-legendary low-carb mushroom chilli, coming in at less than 2g of carbs per portion. In this episode, I walk you through every smoky, garlicky, paprika-laced step of this kitchen triumph—and yes, even the unappetising-looking Vivera mince gets a mention (bless its heart). This is perfect for those keto vegans who are intermittent fasting and still want to eat something warming, satisfying and downright delicious without blowing their carb budget.

    So grab your chillies, channel your inner spice alchemist, and let’s get cooking!

    Key Takeaways

    • Less than 2g of carbs per portion: With smart ingredient swaps and careful measurements, this chilli is a keto vegan dream.
    • Chilli your way: Start with sweet chillies and build up with fresh, jarred, and puréed heat—flavour layering at its finest.
    • Vivera bacon vs mince: Both are shockingly low in carbs (1.8g and 1.9g per 100g), but the bacon wins on taste—even if it looks nothing like bacon.
    • Mushrooms are the unsung heroes: At just 0.3g carbs per 100g, two kilos only add 6g carbs total—and they bring texture, umami and joy.
    • Tomato purée watch: It’s the highest carb ingredient here, but totally manageable with portion control. Adds depth and thickness to the sauce.
    • Don’t forget the smoke: Liquid smoke and smoked paprika take this from “mmm” to “whoa!” in seconds.

    Best Moments

    • “Tomato purée is the highest carb thing in this whole dish… so you might decide you don’t like tomato purée, and you decide not to put it in. I wanted to put it in because I wanted the end result to be thick and not too runny—nice and thick sauciness.”
    • “The Vivera bacon bits don’t look like bacon at all, but they do taste good.”
    • “Don’t put the lid on because there’s going to be so much liquid coming out of the mushrooms that you don’t want it… then adding more and more liquid because you’ve got the lid on the pan—just no.”
    • “I might even try that disgusting-looking Vivera mince. Sorry, Vivera, it just doesn’t look palatable. I might make it and chuck loads of red wine in it—that might be nice.”
    • “This is going to be my go-to going forward. Make mushrooms the base, then add a bit of protein, because we need the protein.”

    Ingredients with carb count:

    • Sesame oil 0g
    • Chilli paste 3.4g per 100g = >0.5g
    • Chillis 4.2g per 100g = >1g
    • Garlic paste 13.8g per 100g = >1g
    • Vivera Mince x1 pack 220g = 4.18g
    • Tomato puree 100g = 15.3g carbs
    • smoked paprika 0
    • liquid smoke 0
    • Mushrooms x4 bags 500g each. 0.3g per 100 = 6g carbs

    Total carbs = 27.98

    15 portions = less than 2g carbs per portion

  • #90 The Keto Vegan Exposing UK Banks: £75 Billion Invested in Climate Destruction
    May 15 2025
    Why Your Bank Might Be Funding Climate Chaos – And What You Can Do About It In this eye-opening detour from our usual plant-powered chat, I’m diving into a topic that affects every one of us: where our money sleeps at night. Spoiler alert – if it’s with a major UK bank, it might be financing the very fossil fuel projects threatening to blow our climate goals to smithereens. I’ll share my own journey from Morgan Chase to a more ethical option, and break down some jaw-dropping figures from a Guardian investigation. We’re talking £75 billion in dirty investments, greenwashing galore, and carbon bombs so big they could derail the global effort to stay below 1.5°C of warming. This isn’t about guilt-tripping. It’s about waking up to the power in our pockets. If you’re already cutting carbs and counting macros for the planet, this is your next step. Your bank might be doing more environmental damage than your diet ever could. 🔑 Key Takeaways UK Banks and Carbon Bombs: Between 2016 and 2023, UK banks poured over £75 billion into fossil fuel projects poised to release 420 billion tonnes of CO₂. That’s more than a decade of current global emissions.The Greenwashing Epidemic: Banks like NatWest and HSBC promote green credentials while secretly backing massive fossil fuel expansion.Naming Names: HSBC funded 104 projects, Barclays 62, and NatWest helped BP raise half a billion for gas in Azerbaijan – all while claiming climate leadership.What You Can Do: Research your bank. Use platforms like BankTrack and Switch It Green to find better options. Changing banks is easier than you think.Your Money = Your Vote: Every pound you deposit supports a future. Make sure it’s one you believe in. 🎧 Best Moments “That’s like a rapist saying, ‘Yeah, I only raped one person. There were 20 others I could have raped, but I didn’t.’ It’s madness, isn’t it?”“The morality of this is disgusting. This isn’t just greenwashing. It’s blatant disregard for our climate crisis, for our beautiful planet.”“If you are banking with any of these banks, you are indirectly supporting the climate crisis... because it is your money they are doing this with.”“People said veganism would never take off. Look at us now. Same thing with your money – small changes make seismic shifts.”“Every single pound that you deposit is a vote for the kind of world you want to live in.” 🔗 Ethical Banking Resources BankTrack – Find a Better Bank Discover banks that prioritise ethics over profit, avoiding investments in fossil fuels, human rights abuses, and environmental destruction. 👉 BanktrackSwitch It Green Evaluate UK banks based on their fossil fuel investments and find greener alternatives. 👉 SwitchitMake My Money Matter – Go Green Learn how to switch to a fossil-free bank and make your money matter for the planet. 👉 Make My Money MatterBank.Green – Ethical Bank Finder Explore banks that align with your values and avoid financing climate breakdown. 👉 bank.greenHubbub – Switch to a Green & Ethical Bank Guidance on moving your money to banks that support positive environmental and social initiatives. 👉 Hubbub Valuable Resources For an extensive list of foods with their carb, fat and protein count, go here: https://www.rachelgtherapy.co.uk/1-what-why-and-how For a keto-vegan start-up menu and shopping list go here: https://www.rachelgtherapy.co.uk/1-what-why-and-how Host Bio Rachel, a once morbidly obese individual, experienced a remarkable body transformation through the keto diet.

  • #89 Burgers, Buses & Bagpipes: A Keto Vegan Weekend in Edinburgh
    May 8 2025

    In this episode, I (Rach!) take you on a lively, leg-stretching, taste-testing adventure through the cobbled streets of Edinburgh during my weekend getaway for the Abraham Hicks workshop.

    🍔 Was it easy being keto vegan in Scotland's capital? 💸 What did I find at Gatwick Airport at 5:30am that didn’t break the carb bank? 🚌 How much does it actually cost to take the bus around Edinburgh? Spoiler: it's shockingly cheap. 🧀 And what on earth is a plant-based haggis fritter doing on my burger?

    From vegan burger joints with more toppings than sense, to a Madras-hot veggie korma that nearly blew my head off, I dish the highs and the "hmm, maybe next time" moments of finding keto vegan food on the go.

    Along the way, I also share:

    • My go-to snack from WHSmiths (and why you should read the carb label carefully)
    • The unexpected joy of coordinated bus meetups with friends
    • The surprisingly lush coffee culture in the heart of tartan town
    • Why the Beyond Meat burger wasn’t the best choice after three days of burgering
    • And how a mushroom chilli from a local pub inspired me to recreate it at home

    Plus, I give some shout-outs to:

    • ✨ Burgers & Beers Grillhouse – great vegan customisation, but beware the sugary balsamic
    • ✨ Ignite Indian Restaurant – hot, hearty, and very keto-adaptable
    • ✨ The Festival Pub – a proper lunchtime gem for meat-free, carb-aware options

    Whether you're planning your own trip to Edinburgh or just here for the keto travel inspo, you’ll get tips, laughs, and the truth about eating low-carb plant-based on the road.

    👀 PS: Abraham Hicks is back in Edinburgh next July – might see you there? 📸 And yes, I did remember to take photos eventually.
