Lemon Poppy Seed Cake with Blackberry Buttercream
August 11, 2014 by 13 Comments
There's nothing more I hate than getting super excited about a cake recipe I see online and then scrolling down to the nutrition information. My heart stops for a minute when I see the macros: "150 calories and 2g net carb for a slice?" When it's too good to be true, it usually is. I'm not in the business of mucking with my macros and breaking things into 24 or 30 slices, I'm in the business of enjoying the food. This cake will make 8 slices - each slice being 4.7g net carbs and filled with ...

Low Carb Chia Seed Crackers
August 10, 2014 by 25 Comments
Lately I've been craving something crunchy...a small snack that can give a chance to the normally slightly gooey and soft texture you get with keto. I've done cheese chips, and I've gotten a little tired of them. I've done flax chips, which are filled with phytoestrogens and getting a bad rep. So what's left? I figured I could make something out of chia seeds, since I had done similarly with tortillas - and boy was I right. These chia seed crackers are absolutely amazing. Granted they aren't ...

Roasted Garlic Chipotle Aioli
August 10, 2014 by 2 Comments
Mayonnaise is well known among people on a ketogenic diet, but aioli seems to sit in a corner and not get too much attention and love. Well, there's a really easy explanation for this - they're pretty much the same thing. Aioli is...well, mayonnaise with garlic. Easy enough, right? This term was cultivated in the French region of Provence. Normally the garlic of aioli is crushed using your hands or a mortar and pestle, so the flavors of the garlic can come out into the sauce. But, if you see ...

Bacon and Roasted Garlic Spinach Dip
August 8, 2014 by 12 Comments
Over the years, traditional spinach dip from the store has gotten a bit bland. It all tastes like the same stuff - cream cheese and some spices put together and poured out into the thousands of plastic containers that you see on the shelf. This? Nothing of the sort. It's packed full of flavors and bursting with a different texture in every single bite. Paired with chia crackers or pork rinds, nobody that's eating this will even have a clue they're eating keto - it's that good! Whether you're ...
