- Have you ever tried cauliflower rice pudding? or keto "popcorn?" ....well neither have we! In this video we test two new questionable keto recipes that we found. If you have any questionable recipes you would like us to try please let us know in the comments section!
To make the cheese "popcorn":
Cut up a block of extra sharp cheddar cheese into 1/4 inch cubes. Place in a single layer on a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet with a paper towel draped over it to absorb oils for 48 hours. Uncover and place in the oven at 395 degrees for 4:30 or so. Sprinkle with sea salt.
To make the cauli rice pudding:
Cook bag of cauliflower rice in the microwave according to directions. Rise thoroughly until it doesn't smell like cauliflower. Cook sugar free vanilla pudding according to directions or you can use 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream with 1.5 cups almond milk like we did.
Combine the cauliflower rice and rice pudding, sprinkle with cinnamon and top with whipped cream.

Note to self: put tin foil on the rack below the popcorn.
I make a cauliflower oatmeal if y'all want to try I would be honored and humbled.
1 bag frozen cauliflower rice
sweetener of choice I use whatever is handy
your favorite oatmeal flavorings (cinnamon, maple syrup, brown sugar substitute, basically whatever you like)
almond milk
heavy cream
cook the rice for 8 minutes in the microwave (I don't care what the instructions say trust me 8 minutes) I don't care if you rinse or not, I don't never even thought about that I mean how do you even wash the cauliflower off the cauliflower
on a medium heat put some heavy cream and almond milk in a saucepan how much is up to you according to how creamy you like it
add the sweetener and flavorings
add the rice
add more almond and/or cream as needed
Cook until you get it to the tenderness, creaminess and texture you like best.
I also do grits in the same manner still using the cream and almond milk but with butter, salt, pepper, garlic and cheese of choice (cheddar or gouda work well) add some scampied shrimp and you got shrimp and grits
You can do the grits as a casserole by combining the rice, 1/2 cup of sour cream, 1/2 cup of mayo, seasonings, 1/2 cup to 1 cup of cheese of choice. Sprinkle a little cheese on top and bake for 30 minutes in a 400 degree oven. You can do a couple of minutes under the broiler to brown the cheese on top
These sound great Mike! Thank you so much for sharing, we will definitely try them at some point soon!! -Emily
I would eat this. Thanks for sharing
Yum add cheese and shrimp, maybe a little cajun seasoning, sounds wonderful!
@@comfortcreekranch4948 I have done that and it is great!
They all sound really good. I am going to try adding it to Maria Emmerich's famous egg pudding (French Toast PSMF version or the whole egg version...both are yummy) with some of the add ins you suggested. I like that you didn't use the Jello pudding...some questionable ingredients in it for me.
I was already laughing when the cheese popped off the baking sheet while in Sarah's hand. And then 3:12 happened... Emily, your slow motion laugh nearly killed me. 😂🤣💀
🤣🤣🤣
Might want to try an airfryer for those "jumping beans"
My thoughts also!
If you have an instant pot with a dehydrator setting it might speed up the drying process. I was also wondering if a milder cheese like mozzarella would make it taste more like traditional popcorn then add flavorings that you would add to plain popcorn.
"Clean this for a year" and "Rinse forever", 😂😂😂😂 I'm dying
You both are so cute together! I hope you stay the same and don’t get pushed into promoting products and/or supplements. Right now you are refreshingly honest and forthcoming with your opinions and that makes people want to follow you. Best wishes and keep up the great content and easy recipes !
We may promote things in the future, but only things we truly enjoy! -Em
The expression on your face when trying the pudding is priceless!
YOUR BIGGEST FAN..... omg the music, the look on your face i giggled so hard... funny
Hey Jodi!! ❤️❤️-Em
Next time, maybe turn a wire or metal collender upside down over these so when they pop, they'll be corralled
I definitely want to make the cauliflower rice pudding. I'm not keto but I watch my carbs and calories. I can easily add protein and decrease the calories to fit my eating goals. Awesome idea !
Just make sure to watch the rice forever and I think you are going to be impressed! I loved it! -Em
I wonder if you cooked the cauli-rice dry like you do for other recipes, added a little thickener and chilled if it would taste more like rice pudding.
I crack up every time you play your “HarryPotter-sk “ music. It’s brilliant. You two are so funny
Awww 🙈🙈🤣🤣
LMAO 🤣 You guys are a hoot 😂 I love the music u add... Normally I hate background music but how u guys do it makes it add to the comedic side u are giving us while cooking... So super cute... Very entertaining... I loved it... So cool how versatile cauliflower is... I will def give both of these recipes a whirl in the future! The pudding would be a wonderful way to sneak in a veggie for my 4yr old son!😊👍🏻
Thx ladies💕
That’s so smart to sneak veggies in that way, this is perfect for that!! We were really not sure about these recipes because in the last video we tried an eggplant “bread” pudding... and yeah... it was bad! Lol! I’m really shocked how good these were and easy! ❤️-Emily
@@ketotwins I'mma have to watch that video for sure!!!! It's so brave of y'all to try weird keto recipes for us... Our very own guinea pigs!!! ROFL 🤣 For ur keto family u take one for the team literally 😂 I can dig it... Thank u ladies 😘 I'mma go watch that eggplant video now...🤣
Proud Mama keep an eye out for recipes for us! It’s actually harder than I thought it would be to find weird keto recipes! ❤️❤️
@@ketotwins Will do... Lol😊👍🏻
I agree. I usually hate music distracting from videos but this quirky, playful tune was just perfect! And I'm so grateful you tried the cauliflower rice pudding because ive been fantasizing about something like that but didn't want to waste ingredients so thanks ladies for showing me it's possible.
I laughed and laughed at the slow mo when you pulled the cheese out of the oven. Thanks for a fun video!
You two are too cute for words. Tapioca pudding is one of my favorite things. My mom used to make it with frozen strawberries for dessert after Sunday dinner. I am not a fan of the artificial sweeteners and colors in commercial pudding. I wonder how you could hack an all natural keto pudding. You really whetted my appetite for guilt free rice pudding. Thank you Twinsies!
I really wanna try that rice pudding! I love tapioca pudding!😄
It was surprisingly good! Try it for sure! -Em
Maybe you try the popcorn one laying another sheet loosely on top of them to keep them from jumping off? Might be worth a shot.
That’s a great idea! -Em
If you have two racks in your oven, you could put an empty sheet on the top level and put the cheese one level below so when it pops it’ll hit the top sheet and bounce back onto the lower one 🤞
HAHA omg great video ladies...when those things jumped around..that's nuts! HAHA when you tried the rice pudding made her worry was gross. Glad you enjoyed both recipes!
Lol! we did not expect them to pop like actual popcorn! that was a surprise :)
You can make whipped cream with an immersion blender or a food processor with a whipped cream blade. Just FYI. I make it with an immersion blender all the time
I didn’t know that, thanks for the tip Pam! -Emn
Y'all said something about the "rice" pudding in another vid and it got me here. I'm so excited to see this!
Thanks for trying out the recipes! Enjoying your videos 🤓🙏🌺
Gotta try these, thank you.
Great Video...Love the music in the background!!
Thanks for all the different hacks, makes me feel hopeful on this journey.😊
I’m so excited about the rice pudding! I love rice pudding
Love these hacks!
thank you for the tip on where to find that round tray!
Ladies, thank you so very much as i really really miss rice pudding. I will be making this 🌟👍🏻🙋🏻♀️🙏
I REALLY am enjoying your tic tok reviews! Got my daughter hooked on them too!
Thank you so much! These are fun videos to make :)-Em
That was fun!😀👍 Great job Keto Twins! Take good care 💜🙏✌🌞🎶💐
Thanks Kat!! 💜-Em
The background music is perfect…..
I love that you caught the popping on video. I wouldn't have believed that cheese popped if I hadn't seen it!
It was crazy!
I grew up with riced pudding. Having it tonight!!
Great video
OMG Ladies!!! Thank you so much for the rice pudding...it was so amazing and hit the spot from when I was a little kid when my bisabuela use to make it... i use to make it all the time before keto but now I will have this as a treat every once in a while... I'm so glad u tried this one. A big thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻
So happy you love it! I wish my husband would try it but he’s like NOPE! 😂❤️-Em
Those popcorn cheese are delicious with dry baked thin pepperoni slices.
Serving the cheese on the pepperoni slices like a cracker.
My daughter makes them a lot
Yum, chili powder on cheese pops.
I love these!! Because of the popping, I prefer to dry out cheese slices that make cheese crackers!! I cut the cheese slices like a tic tac toe game. In other words nine small squares per slice. It dries out quicker too!! 😃
I was thinking, you ladies have used hemp hearts for porridge "oats", could you maybe make the "rice" pudding with hemp hearts?
Ketofocus has a puffed cheese popcorn recipe as well, she puts flavours on it.
Rice pudding is an intetesting idea! I bet it would work
Made this...loved it...my family did as well
Wanna make and take to a family function and see how it goes over
So glad they liked it Deb! ☺️
The Las couple of videos were hilarious!
Aww thanks Michalene! We have a lot of fun making these videos and we are glad you find them funny lol! -Emily
I was hoping you guys would make cauliflower rice pudding!!
It was good
Why don't you guys have like a bazillion followers. You are fantastic!!
Aww thanks Kim!! -Em
⬅️ Oooo sounds delicious!! 💕💕💕
Liz & Skatz both recipes were surprisingly good! -Em
I'm going to do the cheese pops on the gas grill with a pan just so I don't have to worry about burring and a hard clean up
Let us know how they turn out! -Em
You might want to check on getting an Emerson blender, it works so fast for whipped cream
Get a quart mason jar put the lid on and shake shake shake... Quick n easy whipped cream plus a arm workout to boot!
I want to try the cheese for sure! Reminds me of Moon Cheese that Costco used to sell and I loved.
If you liked the moon cheese you’ll really like these!
@@ketotwins Great. Seems easy too.
I wanna try the rice pudding!
It was surprisingly good! Wash the cauliflower rice really well lol -em
Love the music...rofl
Maybe a spoon of vanilla….thank you💕
Here is the best tip for making whipped cream by hand. I saw this tip on America's best kitchen. If you move the whisk from side to side instead of a circular movement not only will your hand not be tired, it makes the process faster.😁
I did not know that! Thank you for the tip! -em
Questionable keto recipes 😂❤
😂❤️
I tried cauliflower rice pudding once and it was disgusting 🤢 I'll try rinsing it next time.
Wonder how it would be with popcorn salt. Im excited to try it
Memaw wy
You could probably refrigerate the zucchini chips for like overnight, that will draw out some of the moisture
Emily's facial expressions crack me up, 😂
Very fun
Thanks Mary!!-Em
I think if you use konjac rice would work more for my head lol 😆
Re-looking this recipe. I thought you were using SF “cook and serve” vanilla pudding mix, but I haven’t been able to find that. Looking at the video now, it looks like it’s the instant vanilla pudding?
I believe the blue boxes are sugar free, and it was the cook and serve
I have not watched the rice pudding part yet, but I would hazzard a guess that "miracle rice" would have been better than cauliflower.
It was actually very good with the cauliflower, who would have guessed lol! -Em
Love rice pudding:)
We would definitely recommend making it! It was really good :) -Em
where did you get that round tray that has the cover that opens and closes? The one that you had the cheese on to begin with....I want one!!
Here you go Lynn! Its on amazon: amzn.to/3IuGlC4
I never liked bread or rice pudding. I DID love tapioca though...🤔
It’s like a cross between the two 🤷🏻♀️ maybe you’d like it! -Em
Just curious, was the Jello pudding the instant or the cook n' serve?
It is the sugar free cook and serve variety -Em
Was the pudding instant? Or cook n serve?
Will u do some version of oatmeal? I am new to the channel.
We hope to do a video about it in the future! We have yet to try it yet! -Em
what could i substitute for the jello pudding? we don't have that here in NZ...
just like gelatin, sweetener and vanilla or something? what even is jello "pudding"? (i know what regular jello is though lol)
I read that you can use a custard like base. 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup almond milk, swerve (or your choice of sweetener) 3-4 egg yolks, and vanilla and you cook it on low heat while it thickens up! -Em
I think chia seeds could work in place of cauliflower in the pudding too! 😊
Homemade moon cheese
What about an airfryer for the cheese?
Hi Darlene! We are some of the last people on earth who don’t own an air fryer yet! But I’m sure you could do it in there, just not sure how long it would take. In the oven it only takes 4-5 minutes. -Emily
How does this compare to moon cheese, besides being way more work?
It’s way less expensive, kind of tastes like a ritz cracker! -Em
Looks good...I think...lol 💕👍🏼🙏🏼
Both of them were really good Kaye! Worth trying for sure! ❤️❤️-Em
Doesn't SF pudding have lots of starch? Is it really keto-friendly?
Keto means in ketosis, what you eat to get there doesn’t matter. As long as you stay under the threshold of carbs you are in it. You could technically eat 20 net carbs of pure sugar and still be in ketosis. Depending on what kind of “keto” you want to do, that’s when the dietary restrictions come in. Clean keto, dirty keto, lazy keto... it’s endless. We are more “relaxed” with what we eat some of the time, as long as we are in ketosis. Others are way more strict with their ingredients 😊-Em
Use a hand mixer to make that whipped cream girlfriend. 👍😉
👍
Did you stream in a bag cauliflower?
Hi Debbie! Yes we cooked it in the microwave for 6 minutes beforehand :) -Em
I've heard the Palmini (hearts of palm) also really works good for the rice pudding. It sounds a little less gaggy to me. Haha
🤢 if you try it let me know 🤣🤣-Em
Why did you use almond milk when then comment said half and half?
Too many carbs
Its like moon cheese I guess?!
It’s less hard than moon cheese, more airy and crunchy if that makes sense! 🤷🏻♀️😂-Em
@@ketotwins ohh sounds good. I'm going to have to get some block cheese. I'm kinda lazy so all my cheese is pre shredded or slices.
Shastity Dena'e sarah is doing some experiments with the pre sliced ones! So hopefully we can see if those work too! 😀-Emily
@@ketotwins Ohh we will see. I have made "crackers" with the ultra thin Sargento slices.
Shastity Dena'e awesome! We will have to try that one!
have you tried making "refried beans" with eggplant? keto with Sammy has a recipe on her channel. I would like to see what you two think about it 🙏🙏👍
We haven’t tried that yet! Yum! Thanks for the suggestion! -Em
@@ketotwins supposedly they taste legit 😏
Yuck, yuck. Sorry! The only kind of pudding I’d eat would be chocolate. That didn’t sound good or even look good. I guess I’m bad and a picky eater 😟 but on a good note, I enjoyed watching you two😀
Cheryl California some people love rice pudding (my mom would make it for us growing up) and other people hate it (like my husband 😂) thanks for watching anyways Cheryl ❤️-Em
Keto Twins I think it’s the texture that I don’t like. I don’t like cottage cheese either. Lumpy bumpy! Yuck! I eat smooth chocolate though😁
Yeah i like cottage cheese, it revolts my husband! Lol!
Keto Twins I’m with your husband. A big yuck! Haha
Mine tastes like cauliflower 🥲
Did you wash it a lot? I think washing it is the key to make it taste less like it
Did the cauliflower rice pudding thinking some?
Sorry Darlene, not sure what you are asking but if you are asking if we thinned it out we didn’t, it was a really nice consistency! -Emily
@@ketotwins thicken not thinking sorry
Darlene Solomon it’s pretty thick, I don’t think I’d be able to tell the difference honesty between the real thing-Em
Who bakes at 395? I had to laugh I've never seen anything baked at 395i dont know why that struck me as funny
lol we followed the tiktok! :D - sarah
Your thoughts about advertisers using overweight models? Something we're seeing much more of. I think it's great because it promotes body positivity and shows that people are beautiful in all sizes and shapes. I have friends who think otherwise because they think it promotes positivity for being overweight & that's unhealthy. I suspect these fat-shaming people would fail to same the same about real skinny models who may so thin due to unhealthy anorexic diets also.
I think it’s great to show more diverse and realistic body types. We’ve kinda avoided the topic as that side of UA-cam can be full of drama 😇 -Em
I’m wondering if you could take a few more ingredients such as almond flour, baking soda salt and come up with a Keto oatmeal cookie of sorts. I miss oatmeal ladies!
💋🧚🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
I bet there’s an oatmeal flavoring out there that will do the trick, I’ll have to do some research! -Em
Did you every find an oaeal flavoring do make keto cauli-based oatmeal cookies?
@@malikabrahim123 -Nope, do you know of one? 💋🧚🏻♀️
@@festussmom6364 no, but when I get some free time I will experiment. Email me, if you like and I'll keep you posted.
But sugar free Jello pudding isn't really keto. So meh...
We follow a relaxed keto lifestyle. -Sarah
