Being keto for almost 2 years, potatoes are definitely one of the items that I miss the taste of. They are mostly used for just filler but I really did like the taste of them. As potato chips. As french fries. Covered in cheese. Covered in cheese and bacon. So many ways....mmm potatoes. Anyways, I wanted to try making a recipe that used everything to make loaded potatoes but obviously minus the potatoes. Cauliflower has the odd quality where it can pretty much be used as a substitute for almost any vegetable. It does not really have that much...
When I started out doing keto, the first website and Youtube channel that I kept coming back to was Keto Connect. They have a great selection of simple recipes for people just starting out on keto and have great informative Youtube videos. I would definitely check them out. This recipe is adapted and adjusted from a Keto Connect High Fiber Muffin post they made a while back. It is also in their cookbook, which sold on Amazon. For them it was meant to be a breakfast muffin that was filling and delicious. I made it many many times but kept...
some affiliates links within post I have been making deviled eggs as my designated side dish for many different holidays since becoming keto. It is a great standard keto item, easily tracked, and everybody seems to enjoy deviled eggs. The hard part is that they are not always the easiest to make. I swear there is some sort of higher power that knows when deviled eggs are being made and make the shells impossible to peel. One trick that I have noticed seems to be helping recently is that right after you take the eggs off the heat and pour...
I have tried a lot of keto pancakes. A lot. And most of them take a blender or some really extensive process that I don't have to the time for. I usually have breakfast on my lunch hour so I only have so much time to make and eat. I have been playing with pancake recipes for a while and one that I was doing was pretty easy but there were just too many ingredients to try and make it taste sweet. I finally found one that is super easy and quick to make and only takes 4 ingredients. I...
post may contain affiliate links Having risalamande or Danish rice pudding every Christmas was one of my favorite memories. I loved the taste of it and, as a kid, finding the almond before the rest of my family was probably the most competition I could handle. The funny part about it was that my cousins did not like it. I vividly remember my cousins trying to choke and gag it down and then they would still get the whole almond and get the prize. I would get so mad! YOU DIDN'T EVEN LIKE IT! When we were kids, the...
I have seen a lot of keto jalapeño popper chicken roaming around Pinterest. This recipe stemmed from that, but I made some changes because I am not actually a fan of jalapeño poppers to begin with. Too much cream cheese in one bite for my liking. This is more like a casserole where the cream cheese jalapeño mixture is all mixed up with the chicken and ooooooh is it yummy. So creamy and rich with just a hint of spice. Most of the recipes I see the mixture is placed on the top of a whole chicken breast. I am not amazing at...
Doing keto for over a year, you think I would learn to not just buy everything that people post that is low carb. I end up with all these items that either take way too much work to end up using or I don't have the rest of ingredients to use the item in a recipe. This happened when I purchased coconut cream and coconut milk in a can from Trader Joe's. I kept reading of all these delicious desserts I could make by whipping it up into a mousse, but ain't nobody got time for that! Then I bought...
If you are new to keto, you might not have discovered yet that the loss of having a crunchy snack can cause sleepless nights and tears in the corner. Or so I have heard... These keto crackers will definitely satisfy that need for crunch and keep you full at the same time all while keeping that digestive system cranking all day! My mom has been dabbling in the keto ocean lately and since she has celiac, she inherently is already making gluten free items. She is an amazing baker and she was working on a recipe for some crunchy seed...
Everybody loves hot chocolate, but on a keto way of life, regular hot chocolate is just not possible for me. The amount of sugar will give me a serious stomach ache the next day and not worth it for many. My daughter loves hot chocolate and I just look at her with severe jealously when she slurps down her own non-keto hot chocolate. I think she drinks it extra loud just to piss me off. This is a great snack to have at night if you feel you are a bit short on your fats for the day and want...
Karbonader is a traditional Danish dish that is very simple and easy to make. Growing up with a Danish mom, I ate lots of different Danish meals. My favorite is karbonader with boiled potatoes. I could eat that every day. It is a nice change from beef and chicken. I wasz always excited when my mom said she was making karbonader, which could not be said for some other Danish dishes....I am looking at you dansk bøf med løg (danish hamburger patties with onions & gravy). Originally the dish should be half pork and half veal, but I prefer...
