With St. Patty's day coming up, it's time to figure out how to get as much alcohol into our food as possible. Not only will we be drinking it, but we need to be eating it too. Right...RIGHT? Fine, even if you don't want to drink your food, this is delicious. Very nice hints of vanilla roll through and the alcohol just comes through with enough flavor to balance it out. It will be a little less moist than the other cakes, but it pairs VERY well with a dollop of whipped cream on the top (and a ...
Coconut Chocolate Mocha Mug Cake
Now, I know it's pie day and I'm totally failing on that part. I tried to make a coconut cream pie in the microwave and it just didn't work out. The crust cooked just fine in the mug, but try to remove it and it completely breaks apart. So, I'll just give you something that's just as good! Just in case you missed out on the previous recipes in this mug cake series, you can check them out: If you're a fan of coconut and chocolate, then give this one a try! You can taste ...

Delicious Vegetable Medley
Vegetables are a staple with almost every meal in my house. I love them, I love their taste, and I love the textures they can bring to a dish. The crunchiness, the freshness, and the flavor they can bring compliment almost any dish if used correctly. On a ketogenic diet, many people are afraid to get their vegetables in. Sure, they have quite a big number of carbs in, but they also have a lot of fiber. Normally a lot of vegetables should have a small enough net carb amount to supplement into ...

Drunken Five Spice Beef
I really wasn't sure what to call this dish once I made it. It's not exactly a Mediterranean dish, after all. But, it has the flavors some of the Mediterranean dishes had when I was over there. The five spice is more Asian, but it definitely has hints of sweet and savory (reminding me more of cinnamon in this dish). The cumin definitely gives it that eastern vibe and plays together very well with the beef - adding a distinct richness. The beer...well, I was going to add wine but while I was ...

Inside Out Bacon Burger
It's been a long time coming that I actually use the meat of a burger as buns - but that time has finally come! Bacon, cheese, and some crispy raw onion between 2 patties of...more bacon and ground beef? Count me in! If you're feeling extra frisky (and have the calories to fit it in), I HIGHLY suggest throwing some Bacon Jam in the middle of this sucker. Not only will it bring an awesome contrast in the flavors with the vinegar of the jam, but it adds more bacon! Okay, since switching to a ...
