What is okonomiyaki? Well, it's a deliciously prepared savory pancake that gets stuffed with meat and shredded cabbage. As if that's not enough, it's slathered in tangy BBQ sauce and mayo before finally dusted with powdered seaweed and bonito flakes. When the server brings the plate to your table the bonito dances across on top and your friends go, "Wow!" It's a really special experience. That's the simple version anyway, because Japan has hundreds of different types of okonomiyaki. The ...

About me: my name is Michelle. I'm 30 years old and have struggled with my weight my entire life. Growing up heavy was really hard on me. I was constantly picked on in school for my weight starting at an early age, which had a huge impact on my self esteem. By the time I was in middle school, I had to wear women's clothing and was miserable. I quickly fell into a cycle of eating my sorrows for being picked on, as well as stress eating for comfort when I faced any difficult situation. I will ...

I’ve been seeing a lot of Pinterest pins for dips lately. It reminded me of this one Mexican restaurant I used to visit that had the best spicy sausage dip. So in memory of the delicious dip I used to eat, I created my own keto version. I’ve always had a love for spicy foods, and this dip was no exception. For the Italian sausage, I choose to use the hot kind. For an extra kick of spiciness, I added a can of hot Ro*Tel. If you’re not familiar with Ro*Tel, it’s diced tomatoes and green ...

I’ve been wanting to work on a simple pecan bars recipe for some time now. While I was experimenting on some recipes recently, I decided to try working on a new brownies recipe.
