Cumin Sesame Lemon Mug Cake
Cumin is one of my all-time favorite spices to use with meat, but without the meat portion it seems weird to use. I had to come up with something that could accent the earthy qualities needed for cumin, while still playing a role in the recipe. Sesame seeds definitely do the trick!

Cumin Crusted Pork Chops
Who can resist a crispy pork chop that's tender and juicy in the middle? You'll have some great eastern flavors coming together in this dish and I'm sure you'll be adding this one to your meal plan! I highly suggest cutting this into thin strips once the pork has been resting for at least 7 minutes after cooking. That way you aren't overwhelmed with the spices. The fragrant hints of cumin are instant when this touches your mouth. Once you start to chew, the crispy texture of the crust comes ...

Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Mug Cake
Fresh, delicious, and unique. These are the 3 words I'd use to describe this mug cake. Tomato is a fantastic thing that can bring mositure, taste, and a unique sense of flavor to a dish. If you missed out on the last mug cakes, check them out: Of course you don't have to serve this with a slice of tomato, but it does really seal the deal when you're finished. A nice crisp small piece of tomato to get that "I need something fresh" out of your mind. This mug cake is extremely ...

Chocolate Covered Maple Pecan Bacon
I know I'm giving you the run over on the mug cakes this week but I figured you'd want to get this made ASAP because it's just too good to not make! This stuff was handed down from the heavens as far as I'm concerned, and I won't judge if you end up stocking this up on trays in your fridge. The only qualm I have with this stuff is that the chocolate melts pretty quick because it's mostly made up of fat...but who the heck cares? Are you going to be holding this stuff for more than 10 seconds? ...

Green Chile Cheddar Mug Cake
In a perfect world we could just make all of our meals in a mug, take 5 minutes out of our day for the food we consume, and be on our merry way to more important things. Though, mug cakes won't always get that craving for meat out of your head, they are still an awesome meal replacement for anyone who's in a rush. If you missed out on the last mug cake, it was a good one so make sure to check it out. Bacon, Cheddar & Chive - yep, I did that. You can easily pre-pack the ingredients ...

Bacon, Cheddar and Chive Mug Cake
When you think of a mug cake, you might think of one of the sweeter options. But, savory mug cakes can be made too! Not to mention, they're pretty freakin' awesome. Cheese really helps these things out with the texture too. It gives a more moist, more delicious, more hearty and filling keto fat bomb that you can actually use to replace a full meal - breakfast or lunch! Just in case you did miss our sweet series of mug cakes, you can check them out below: Chocolate Cake in a Mug Chai ...

Low Carb Corned Beef Cabbage Rolls
Okay, okay. I know I promised to bring you savory mug cakes and I definitely will - I just thought a nice intermittent break would be useful for the people that don't always enjoy mug cakes. Don't worry though, they're coming soon! These cabbage rolls are really an awesome way to eat corned beef. I knew for sure I was making corned beef for St. Patty's day (and sorry I didn't post this yesterday, I had it for dinner last night), but I didn't know what way I would eat it. Once I took the ...

Spinach Shamrock Latte
Happy St. Patty's day everybody! I think I'll be staying pretty classic this time and make some Corned Beef and Cabbage tonight, but we'll see what happens to give it a twist. So, you rarely see me using avocado and there's a reason for it - I just don't like the stuff. The greens we're getting today is from spinach. Spinach is seriously one of my favorite vegetables. It's packed full of micronutrients and it takes on flavors of other things really well. You're probably thinking to yourself ...

Maple Pecan Keto Muffins
So I figured we needed a bit of a break from all the mug cakes before I start off on the savory series. Though I have all of the savory ones done, I wanted to give a bit of a treat to you guys (especially the ones without microwaves)! Boy, I didn't imagine in todays day and age that some people just don't own microwaves. They're so convenient but I do understand that the nutrients are pretty much sucked out of the joyous life of everything by those microwave radiation waves. Either way, I ...
