Low-Carb Strawberry Cheesecake

Facebooktwitterpinterestmail

So what if this is the second cheesecake I have made in 2 weeks.  Maybe I like cheesecake, don’t you???  I was actually craving strawberry cheesecake last week when I made the “Peanut Butter Cheesecake“, but I was so busy figuring that one out, I kind of forgot about it until today.  I looked up low carb strawberry cheesecake on Pinterest and tried one of the recipes.  I am not going to beat around the strawberry vine, I am just going to say it.  IT WAS HORRIBLE.  It had way too much egg and it just wasn’t what I envisioned.

So, I started over and did it my way.  This “Low-Carb Strawberry Cheesecake” reminds me of that strawberry pretzel jello dessert that everyone makes at the Fourth of July.  It has similar qualities because I added salt to my crust (feel free to leave salt out of crust if you need to).    You can also substitute the strawberries & preserves with your favorite.

Introducing my very own recipe for “Low-Carb Strawberry Cheesecake”… I hope you love it as much I do!  It’s perfect for Valentine’s Day, or any day.

Just made this strawberry cheesecake and I can't believe this is low carb!
