I’m pretty sure everyone’s mother made some version of Chicken Divan while they were growing up. The recipe originated in a New York City hotel and was the restaurant’s signature dish. Over the years it transformed into a family favorite casserole that was easy to make, fed a crowd and fit into most budgets. Many chicken divan recipes use canned condensed soups making them easy to whip up with pantry staples. This version ditches the condensed soup but uses only a few extra ingredients ...

Instant Pot King Ranch Chicken Soup
October 25, 2018 by Leave a Comment
This spicy chicken soup is wonderfully hearty and so easy to create. Chicken, butter, and spices are simmered in the Instant Pot then thickened up with cream, xanthan gum, and cheese. If you don't have an Instant Pot you can also cook in a slow cooker for 4-6 hours. This soup smells amazing! I always get compliments from other people in the house when I create it.

Pan Seared Cod with Tomato Hollandaise
October 9, 2018 by Leave a Comment
White, firm, flaky cod is delicately delicious! One serving gives you a low-calorie boost of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, and several other nutrients to help keep your heart healthy. Its mild flavor is the perfect base for a rich sauce such as tomato hollandaise. Hollandaise is an emulsified sauce wherein the egg yolks serve as both the emulsifier and the thickening agent. The more you cook the egg yolks, the thicker the sauce. Be careful though. The longer you fuss with it, ...

Loaded Cauliflower and Meatloaf Casserole
October 4, 2018 by Leave a Comment
This casserole is hearty and worthy of sharing with a crowd. I know this because I did just that when testing out this recipe. Nobody else who tried it was doing keto, but they all loved it anyway. What's not to love though? A quick meatloaf slathered in creamy mashed cauliflower, then topped with lots of melty cheese and crisp bacon. It's a dream! To make things easy, I used frozen cauliflower for this dish. You can, of course, substitute fresh cauliflower. I don't even think you'd need ...

Chicken ‘Pot Pie’ Casserole
September 4, 2018 by Leave a Comment
Looking to make a chicken pot pie, but don’t want to put in the effort to make the crust? Me too. Don’t get me wrong, there is something delicious about making it with a crust, but sometimes easiness overrules tastiness, especially when it’s winter and you come home from work when it’s already dark. This recipe takes about 15 minutes to make, plus an hour of cooking time. You can also use any keto friendly vegetables that you want! I added in some mushrooms, broccoli, and green onions but ...

Chicken and rice casseroles are classic, kid-friendly, and feed a crowd. This makes it a long-time family favorite.

It tasted great but was far from low carb. This keto chicken and rice casserole recipe is much healthier, uses simple ingredients, and still feeds a crowd. It uses some of my ...
