Low Carb Mock Snickers Bar

October 29, 2013 by 30 Comments

Chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel. I've never heard anyone in my life say they don't like that combination, even people with nut allergies! I try to be pretty honest when I am writing these recipes, if they taste horrible then they taste horrible - I won't hide it. I think these little angels might just be the best thing I've managed to put together in my kitchen for my keto diet. I truly mean it - I actually told my friends to go and try this mock Snickers bar today and that's saying a ...

As you probably already know, I love pizza and all things pizza. And I can't deny my love of meat. Why not combine the two in some scientific horror story and call it a meatza? PERFECT! This isn't your traditional meatza though, it's a fast and easy way to get lunch or dinner made in just about 30 minutes. Delicious crispy crust underneath, and it really takes no effort to make. You'll be thanking me for this one later, but probably hating me. Your burning desire to make this over and ...

Keto Recipe: Better Than Goldfish

October 28, 2013 by 43 Comments

It's not always easy finding something that's crunchy and satisfying when it comes to keto recipes, in fact most of the things I eat have no crunch at all. Sometimes those crunch cravings hit me hard at night, when I just get home and want a fast and easy snack. I found this goldfish cracker recipe online and modified it to use coconut flour to minimize the carbs. They're freaking delicious - crispy, crunchy, cheesy, the holy trinity. Best of all this keto snack only takes about 10 minutes to ...

Having a social life on a ketogenic diet is something that many find hard to do, but don't worry, there are a handful of low-carb and keto alcohol options! There are carbs pretty much everywhere you look, and that's especially the case when you're in a bar. Cutting out all the beer and wine is a great start, but sticking with hard liquor is usually the best choice. Even though hard liquor is made from natural sugars, grains, potatoes, and fruits – during the fermentation and distillation process ...

This is when keto-friendly sweeteners really show their value, providing you with a way to satisfy your sweet tooth without kicking you out of ketosis or stalling fat loss. As with most "low carb" products, you will have to be cautious of the ingredients in the ...

Pancakes are glorious at any time of the day, but unfortunately it's a real challenge to find a version suitable for the keto diet. Every now and again I look through recipes to find some staples that I thought I'd never enjoy again. Time and time again these low carb substitutes come out nothing like what I had anticipated - but this pancake recipe brought some new light into my life. I was actually looking for a cornbread recipe and stumbled upon an almond flour cornbread that I thought was ...

These past few days have been tearing me up inside little by little. I've been craving brownies and everything I see has been reminding me of that. I see a blonde at the park, blonde...blondie? BROWNIE? Jeez, what has happened to me? Sometimes a keto diet can be a real pain on my temptation levels, and this week has really been killer. Normally I go after savory things but my cravings really need to be removed like a rotting wisdom tooth. I saw some low carb brownie recipes online and ...

Fast and Easy Coffee Cubes

October 24, 2013 by 13 Comments

The other day I was running late in the morning and didn't have time to make anything. It really made me re-think what I need to do in emergency situations, so I started to experiment. I like eating something sweet in the morning, so I threw some stuff together. I guessed pretty well because what came out was a rewarding coffee cube! You can add this to your keto butter coffee when you're on the run, or even if you're not. The MCT oil (medium chain triglycerides in the coconut oil) will keep ...

There's nothing better than a tasty, quick, and easy to make snack. These pizza chips are fantastic for batch cooking and throwing in your fridge for a rainy day. They're a bit messy to make, but they are so damn tasty you won't regret the cleanup. Make sure you're wielding plenty of paper towels so we can soak up that grease later on, and make these suckers extra crispy. What could be better than a super crisp piece of meat with some ooey gooey cheese on top? I'd say there's not much ...
