Pork and Cabbage Casserole
This pork and cabbage casserole is a reconstructed cabbage stuffed with a ground pork filling. It slices just like a cake, and is a wonderful hearty dish that is fun serve.

Keto Gyros
I had a craving the other day for some nice, big, Gyro sandwiches. You know the ones I'm talking about: hot fluffy bread stuffed with thinly shaved meat, veggies, and of course that yogurt sauce. I'm not even sure what the best part of a Gyro is, they're so good. So I created this keto friendly version that makes use of our coconut flour tortilla recipe. You can easily bake the meat in your oven, so you do not need to own a rotisserie. The meat mixture is put through a food processor in ...

Keto Mississippi Roast
This keto Mississippi roast can be shoved in your slow cooker early in the day for a hands free but tasty dinner. The shredded beef is punched up with peppery flavors and peperoncinis that almost melt into the meat. There are a number of recipes for this roast style on the internet, but I created this version to not use any spice packages. You can use ingredients that you probably have in your pantry already. I also like to use the sliced peppers instead of the whole peppers. Family ...
