This is a great change in flavor from the regular meals I usually make that are rich and hearty. These meatballs are extremely fresh and flavorful in their own way, bringing the bell pepper and lime to the forefront of each and every bite. They were such a treat to have while the snow was blowing outside, reminding us that spring is just around the corner. You can even serve these as a party appetizer like I did by adding a dab of guacamole underneath the meatballs and then sticking a skewer ...

Keto Roti John
If you have ever visited Brunei, Malaysia or Singapore, high chance you stumbled upon one of these while strolling through a night market. Roti John as it's called, is a kind of sandwich with a meat-filled omelette inside. They are usually cooked with butter. When bought, the sandwich is smothered heavily with mayonnaise and chili sauce or ketchup. It's then sliced to bite-sized pieces and wrapped with brown paper. The shape is quite distinct and you would instantly know it's Roti John ...

Skillet Chicken Pot Pie
This recipe started out as a chicken, bacon and broccoli skillet meal - but it turned out that I had no broccoli in the fridge when I went to add it. As it was during a snow and ice storm, I couldn't just up and drive to the store - but the spinach came and saved the day! So, I decided to make it a bit heartier of a meal and transform it into a fully baked pot pie. Oh - and the taste? Fantastic. Not to toot my own horn, but I've already made this twice - it's that good. And yes, I only ...

Salmon with Tarragon Dill Cream Sauce
There's nothing like fresh salmon that's been pan fried to crispy-skinned perfection. Done so that it just melts in your mouth as you take a bite, and explodes with flavor as you chew. The delicious cream sauce is subtly seasoned so the distinct flavor of the salmon still comes through. This would also go fantastic with some bacon wrapped asparagus on the side. Drizzle any leftover sauce on the asparagus for a truly beautiful meal! If you're making this for a significant other, they will ...

Creamy Butter Shrimp
Asian and Indian style dishes are a staple in this house, as both of us have a long-standing weakness for Chinese takeout and Indian buffets. So, an Asian/Indian spin on a keto recipe is always a welcome addition to our recipe rotations, and this one is definitely a new favorite! I grabbed this recipe from my friend Hazim. Originally called Buttermilk Shrimp in his home country of Brunei, this was a dish that was served in resturants everywhere. He's worked hard to transform this dish into a ...

Buffalo Chicken Jalapeno Popper Casserole
Jalapenos and buffalo chicken are a marriage of flavors that just had to be done. It's a flavor explosion that is oozing with rich and delicious cheese, and packed full of spiciness in every bite. Of course - you can't forget about bacon. Everything tastes better with bacon. I based this on a quick skillet meal that my girlfriend made me the other night. It was pretty much this, but in a pan - and I knew right then and there I had to make a casserole out of it. Both of us absolutely love ...

Orange and Sage Glazed Duck Breast
I know that duck is a bit extravagant and costly for most people out there, but I found some beautiful looking duck breasts in the co-op and decided that I had to try it. I'd never tried it or cooked it before, so I figured why not? If you're not the type that wants to use duck, you can easily sub the duck breast out for a chicken thigh. Just remember that chicken thighs want to go into a hot pan (rather than a cold pan, since there isn't as much fat to render), and that they take longer to ...
