This recipe is quick, so it's the perfect dinner to whip up on those busy weeknights. I've taken the classic chicken cordon bleu recipe and reformatted it to be keto friendly and easy to prepare. I really like this dish because the flavor combo of ham, Swiss, Dijon mustard, and chicken are hard to beat. I also love that even though this recipe uses chicken breasts and bakes them in the oven - they come out nice and juicy. With a typical cordon bleu you might worry about creating a ...

Bolognese Zoodle Bake
February 14, 2017 by 14 Comments
Bolognese sauce is a basic, but mighty, meat based sauce that is typically used for pasta's and lasagna. The secret to a delicious bolognese is a seriously long cook time and just the right temperature. My recipe is relatively easy with just a few spices, and Rao's tomato sauce. If you cannot find Rao's, then look for a keto pasta sauce that is free from added sugar. While I'm calling for the marinara, I've also tested this recipe with their cheese flavor and it was equally as ...

Spicy Sausage & Cabbage Skillet Melt
December 5, 2016 by 11 Comments
This is a fantastic family style skillet meal that you can put together any time. With all the spice from the sausage, you don’t need to get very many of seasonings out to flavor this dish. The cabbage adds a lot of crunch and the dish gets a light creaminess from Colby Jack cheese, which we will melt by steaming it with the lid on for a few minutes. If you don’t love spicy foods like I do, you can substitute a mild sausage instead. What you do want to be sure of is to find a sausage that ...
