I know you all want something that's crusty on the outside, and delightfully soft on the inside. This savory breakfast pie has all of that, and then some. Sausage and cheese flows throughout the pie to bring a great sense of taste and texture between each bite. The top is crusted so you get just enough crunch to keep you coming back for more. Rosemary and lemon are two of my favorite combinations in savory cooking, and I certainly don't eat it enough. Though the sausage was a Bacon and ...

Coffee and Wine Beef Stew
A delicious, rich, and slightly unique take on beef stew. Not so many people have heard of using coffee with beef in a stew, but trust me when I say this - you need to try it! The deep flavors that it produces is fantastic, almost similar to fish sauce that I add in other stews or chili's of mine. When you're cooking the beef, it's imperative that you don't overcrowd the pan. You want nice caramelized browns on the cubes of beef - adding more flavor as they cook down with the rest of the ...

Crispy Curry Rub Chicken Thighs
A very hands off, but extremely tasty recipe - this combines the crispiness of the chicken skin with the tender, almost falling apart, meat. Though it does take nearly an hour in the oven, it will only take you about 5 minutes of prep work to have everything ready. So, once you get home from work, rub some chicken down, let it cook, and enjoy a fantastic meal - hands off, of course :) I also want to say thanks to everyone that visits the website! I know many of you come and see just 1 recipe ...

Pumpkin Cardamom Donut Holes
These may be a slightly strange flavor combination for some, but it's truly worth a taste! The flavors all meld extremely well together, the aromatic cardamom with the sweet pumpkin puree. And, has a fantastic soft cakey texture! If you've ever been missing that moist, almost crumbly taste of an old-fashioned donut on a ketogenic diet; you've come to the right place! These little donut holes are extremely rich, so 2 or 3 is enough to really hit the spot. Though, they serve as great small ...

Not Your Cavemans Chili
When I think of chili, I think of a deep, rich, and thick sauce clinging to firm pieces of beef. Beans scattered throughout each bite, and a nice small crunch of onions and peppers as you get through the bowl. Something that warms you up on a cold winter night, and keeps you full for the rest of the evening. Something that's hearty and delicious! The ground meat portion of this recipe will add a similar texture to that of what beans would. The larger chunks of meat give a great firm texture, ...

Thick and Sticky Maple Syrup
Oh the joys of maple syrup! Through the years, I've experimented and used many syrups that are low carb. Mrs. Butterworths Sugar Free Maple Syrup has always been a pleasure of mine to use, though I do use it rarely. It's got aspartame so I know others wouldn't want to use it. Torani also does some awesome syrups, but I have decided that Torani is kind of expensive for what it is. I realize many people have a budget and many people like to make their own foods to their own tastes. So, I ...

Salted Caramel Pork Rind Cereal
Some of you out there might be shaking your head at the idea of pork rinds, cereal, and cinnamon going together - but take a leap of faith with me. When these initially came out of the fridge, the absolute first thought that I had was "WOW, Salted Caramel Popcorn!" Seriously, these things are almost too good to be true. That said, if you're not a fan of cereal, make these and eat them as snacks. They'd go great with a late night and a movie on the side! This is such a simple and easy recipe ...

Chocolate Curry Cupcakes
So I know off the bat that some of you won't be a fan of this recipe. The first bite was strange, to say the least. Though if you have an open mind about this (and I'm sure you will do if you make it) they really do taste awesome. The biggest problem here is curry powder. You have to make sure you're getting some decent quality curry powder. Regularly, curry powder is made of a blend and combination of spices including curry leaves, tamarind, coriander, ginger, garlic, chili, pepper, poppy ...

Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin
Pork wrapped in pork and then topped with some pork. Sounds like a good idea, right? Well it is! The mustard tones that come through in the marinade really give a taste that'll keep you coming back. The deep flavors that get imparted in both the bacon and the tenderloin are fantastic, and the twang of the mustard slightly comes through after each few bites. Since the protein is a little out of whack on these, I decided to get more use out the Bacon Jam I had made recently. I stuck about 1 1/2 ...
