This recipe is magical. The first thing you see is crisp bacon wrapped around chicken, but cut it open and it reveals a cheesy interior! It's a trick, where you serve something amazing looking that only gets better as you dive into it. The half chicken breasts are stuffed with cream cheese, ricotta, and spinach. Then they are held closed with a bacon wrapping and pan seared before getting finished off in the oven. They already look amazing enough to serve to someone special. I ...

There is something about the classic combination of fragrant basil, salty Parmesan, and lemon that make the flavors in a pesto dish absolutely sing. Pesto sauced zucchini noodles are complemented here with juicy chicken breast and baked tomatoes that flood your mouth with natural sweetness as they pop in your mouth. Pesto pasta is the ultimate comfort food and always used to be what I turned to if I needed a quick meal after a long tiring day. Luckily with a few low carb twists it can ...

Have you ever had so many eggs on keto that you never wanted to eat, see, or smell another egg ever again? Well I have. Especially if I am aiming for a nearly no carb day and I’ve been doing my fair share of eggs. So how do I continue to stay the course and not get burned out on the incredible, mostly edible egg? Pizza eggs, of course! I so badly wanted to put an exclamation point at the end of this recipe title because these little egg pizzas are that good! The base consists of some ...

It’s tacos without the hassle of it falling out of a shell! I must say, it tasted amazing and it only takes roughly 15 minutes of prep! It is also such a great meal to freeze for later in the week or to take to work. For this recipe, I used minced turkey, but you can use any kind of minced meat. I also used jalapenos to give it a little bit of a kick, but if you don’t like the heat, they can be omitted. Or maybe you want it even spicier!? Add some of your favourite hot sauce! Yields 8 ...

You can also stuff it with anything but I decided to use spinach, cheddar cheese, onions, and mushrooms. The cheddar cheese I used is from the deli at my local supermarket. I ...
