Keto Peach Iced Tea#SundayFunday

Peach iced tea is a perfect and ultimate summer time drink specialty, and it's so easy to make! I am using fresh peach to make this , but can use canned peach nectar, a few bags of black tea, an easy method to make a small batch of iced tea. It's a perfect early morning or late afternoon treat. Peaches are rich in vitamins A and C, fiber, and carry antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Serves 2
Ingredients
For The Peach Nectar

2 Ripe Peaches
1 Cup Water
For The Tea
2 Cups Boiling Water
4 Black Tea Bags
4 Teaspoons Sugar -optional- I did not use
Method
Remove pits from peaches and chop.
Place in a saucepan with water and simmer ten minutes or until soft.
Mash pulp and strain contents of saucepan, discarding solids.
To Make The Tea
Into each glass, add two tea bags and pour a cup of the boiling water into each . Steep uncovered for 3-4 minutes.
Remove tea bags, stir in peach nectar and sugar (if using) into each, then fill the rest of the glass with the chilled water. Cover on the lid and refrigerate at least 4 hours before enjoying or if you want to have it immediately then Serve the tea over ice.
Taste the freshness of peach in every glass of Peach Ice Tea. Packed with the goodness of Vitamin C to boost your mood & energize you throughout the day. 
My Notes
Four regular-sized (single-serving) bags of black tea; two per cup. Since iced tea is, well, iced, it can be watered down, so we use two tea bags per serving instead of one.
I don't drink sweetened drinks so I did not add any sugar to my iced tea. 
Today for Sunday Funday we are sharing recipes made with "Peach".

Keto Chinese Steamed Buns#BreadBakers

If you are on Keto and longing for Chinese steamed buns ,then these are for you which are not only gluten free, but pillow-soft, delicious and will go well with any Asian food. You can also make a sandwich with whatever filling you want. 
These also freeze very well. If you want them sweet, then you can increase the sweetener in the batter. I enjoyed them as a savory sandwich and also make these to enjoy with gravy instead of rice. These do not have an egg taste or flavor. To cut that flavor, have added a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Do try these they are soo..oo.. good!
Ingredients
½ Cup Almond Flour
⅛ Teaspoon Stevia powder
1 Teaspoon Baking powder
⅛ Teaspoon Salt
4 Large Eggs
1 Tablespoon Mayonnaise
1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Method
Mix all dry ingredients together and mix well then add the eggs and mayonnaise mix till combined.
Place a 2 tablespoons of batter in each silicone mold and steam it for 10 minutes on high flame or on a water bath in the oven 180°C for 13 minutes. 
Cool  & unmold.
Slice and  make sandwiches with the filling of your choice 
or dunk them in any gravy.
My Notes
I used an aluminum cupcake tin and they didn't stick at all. I used steel plates to make large ones, but batter did stick to the bottom. Make them in silicon mold or place a greased parchment paper before adding the batter to the steel plates.

Honduran Salpicón- Keto#EatTheWorld

Beef Salpicón is a traditional Honduran dish that is both delicious and very easy to make. It's actually a meat salad served over steamed rice or veggies, totillas or lettuce leaves. What I like about this recipe that doesn’t require any additional fats or oils, the dish is low in fat. It's a perfect keto meal recipe. This Honduran recipe is prepared with culantro, which is a variety of culantro with large leaves that grow from the root. Since I did not have this, used coriander leaves, which I, read in google can be subsituted for it.
Ingredients
To Stew The Beef
1 Kg Boneless Beef
2 Medium Tomatoes - diced
1 Medium Onion - cut in fourths
4 Clove Garlic
1 Red Pepper
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 Culantro Sprigs - I used Coriander Sprigs
To prepare The Salpicón
1 Red Pepper - finely diced
1 Small White Onion - finely diced
½ Bell Pepper - cut into fine strips
½ cup Bitter Orange Juice (or substitute with lemon juice or vinegar)
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 Tablespoons Chopped Coriander Leaves
To Serve
Tomato, Onion & Avocado
Method
Put the beef in a pot together with the tomato, onion cut into fourths, garlic and red pepper. Cover the ingredients with water and cook over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook for 2 hours being careful to remove, from time to time, any foam that might form on the surface of the water. You will have to stew the beef until it’s very tender, about 2 hours, adding water if it gets too dry.
Once the beef is tender, season with salt and pepper and add the sprigs of coriander. Turn off burner and let the stew cool completely. Strain the stock and serve it as a consommé or use it as a stock for another soup or in a different recipe.

Shred the stewed with a fork. Put the beef in a bowl along with the diced red pepper, white onion, bell pepper, vinegar and more salt and pepper to taste. Add the chopped coriander leaves.
Serve with salad, rice, steamed vegetables instead of rice and tortillas, or in use salpicón as the filling in lettuce wraps. It's a light dish that will fill you for hours and give you energy. Enjoy!! Refrigerate to serve the salad cold, although it's best when served at room temperature.
