This is a dish that you can whip up in a pinch with ingredients you already have. Chicken, bacon, eggs, cheese, and peppers are staples of a ketogenic diet. The taste of fresh bell peppers alongside smoky bacon will leave you looking forward to the leftovers! These chicken patties are the perfect savory recipe for a chicken, bacon, and ranch salad or placed inside one of my almond buns with lettuce and that sweet, sweet sriracha (also known as nectar of the gods). They're also versatile ...
Green Chile Cheddar Mug Cake
In a perfect world we could just make all of our meals in a mug, take 5 minutes out of our day for the food we consume, and be on our merry way to more important things. Though, mug cakes won't always get that craving for meat out of your head, they are still an awesome meal replacement for anyone who's in a rush. If you missed out on the last mug cake, it was a good one so make sure to check it out. Bacon, Cheddar & Chive - yep, I did that. You can easily pre-pack the ingredients ...

Inside Out Bacon Burger
It's been a long time coming that I actually use the meat of a burger as buns - but that time has finally come! Bacon, cheese, and some crispy raw onion between 2 patties of...more bacon and ground beef? Count me in! If you're feeling extra frisky (and have the calories to fit it in), I HIGHLY suggest throwing some Bacon Jam in the middle of this sucker. Not only will it bring an awesome contrast in the flavors with the vinegar of the jam, but it adds more bacon! Okay, since switching to a ...

Pork Loin Ribs with Keto BBQ Sauce
I wanted to cook a lot of ribs for a little get together we were having this weekend. I went with 3 racks of ribs, but if you don't want to do that many, just scale the recipe accordingly. Remember that 1 Tablespoon = 3 teaspoons! These ribs came out absolutely awesome! The BBQ sauce tastes like a sauce you'd get at a restaurant, maybe just not as sweet (which is the way I like it). It's smokey, with hints of sweet and tangy. So, what did the damage come out to? Only 1.5g carbs per ...

Omnivore Burger with Creamed Spinach and Roasted Almonds
This scrumptious burger is not what it seems. Mushrooms, peppers, and onions run through the meat to give a decadent taste that you may have never experienced before. The rich flavors of vegetables mixed with the savory flavors of the spices come together at a beautiful medium, giving you a delicious burger! You might be thinking that mushrooms is a terrible idea to put in burgers, but they're really awesome. They absorb flavors really well, meaning they will absorb a lot of the fats and ...

Cinnamon and Orange Beef Stew
So I decided to go a little bit out of the ordinary last night and make a beef stew that many of you might not have experienced before. The rich flavors of citrus and beef stock combine with the deep elements of cinnamon and fish sauce to create a delicious meal. We start by searing our meat in a cast iron skillet, letting the wonderful fats caramelize and coax out the flavor. We then add all of our aromatics to cook for a moment before de-glazing with our citrus. After 5 hours in a crock ...
