Keto Grilled Cheese Sandwich
August 4, 2014 by 46 Comments
The simplicity of a grilled cheese is what catches most people's eye. Warm, melty, gooey cheese spewing out the side of the crunchy and toasted bread. It's delicious, it beings us back to our childhood, and it's just a comfort food that you shouldn't have to go without. Thought you could never have that on a keto diet? Think again. I am basing the bread off of my hamburger bun recipe, which seemed to be a hit with a lot of people. Just keep in mind that if you do this in a square bowl or ...

Fresh Bell Pepper Basil Pizza
July 19, 2014 by 10 Comments
Let's face it - we all love pizza. Though, when we're on a ketogenic diet, it can be pretty tough to have the things we want - but pizza isn't one of them. You can make your own dough, top it, and have it on your plate within 30 minutes of starting dinner. Now, would Rachel Ray really believe us when we told her that it's all low carb, too? I don't think so. We're going to make an absolutely delicious and fresh pizza. Topped with red and yellow bell pepper that bring a fantastic crunch, ...

Spicy Jalapeno Poppers
June 3, 2014 by 7 Comments
Jalapeno poppers are a great way to get flavor and fats into your dinner. If you're tired of oily meals and fatty soups, then this will be the perfect break for you. The cream cheese stays soft and delicious on the inside while the heat of the pepper comes through on every bite. You can easily change up the flavor profile of this by changing the type of cheese you use, the spices that go into the cheese mixture, or chopping up some extra cooked bacon and stuffing that inside also. From prep ...

Portobello Personal Pizzas
May 28, 2014 by 3 Comments
A super simple and easy way to make lunch ahead of time. No making dough, no microwaves, just simple ingredients and great taste. If you don't have basil, you can skip it - but be warned that skipping the basil will make the flavors a lot flatter. The basil adds a fantastic note of freshness throughout the pizzas which is perfect with all of the fatty components. Make sure that when you rub the mushrooms with oil that all of that oil gets sopped up by the mushrooms. You don't want excess oil ...

Vegetarian Red Coconut Curry
May 21, 2014 by 7 Comments
I decided to give a whirl at a vegetarian recipe that I've been wanting to do for quite some time now. A vegetarian red curry! If you're not vegetarian, you could easily add some fatty cuts of meat to this to make even more flavor come out and add more protein to the dish. For being ready in just under 20 minutes, this turned out to have some incredible flavors. The "fish" sauce definitely comes through, which I love, and adds a more authentic flavor to all of it. Allowing the curry paste to ...

Pork Shiitake Stir Fry with “Quick Kimchi”
May 16, 2014 by 6 Comments
A delicious blend of Asian infused flavors come together to give you a delicious meal in under 30 minutes. From the tender, succulent pork to the tangy and spicy "Kimchi" that lays atop, everything works in unison to finish off your bite with a punch of umami. Definitely worth trying this one - and if you want to, you can even make the "Kimchi" previously and let it sit in the fridge overnight (or for a few days). The reason I put kimchi in quotes is because it's my own take on it, rather ...

Egg Salad Stuffed Avocado
April 27, 2014 by 11 Comments
Normally I'm one of the very few people on this planet that actually says, "I hate avocados." I just kept seeing so many people loving them and loving them, so I decided to give them a try again. When I was growing up, I actually had an avocado tree and I just never liked the taste, texture, or really anything about the suckers. But lately I just wanted to like them so much that I bought a bag. Boy oh boy, my tastes have changed or something because I really love them now! Salt and pepper ...
