Close your eyes for a minute and just imagine this peppy zoodle casserole lovingly wrapped in a hatch green chile cream sauce, shredded rotisserie chicken, and pepper jack cheese. It's got just a hint of a spice, but the bold flavors do not mess around! Well, you don't have to imagine anymore because today I'm posting a keto Mexican recipe for this very thing. The cream sauce is made by mixing heavy whipping cream and pureed hatch green chiles with colorful cooked bell peppers. Then it's ...
Low Carb Sweet and Sour Meatballs
April 6, 2017 by 5 Comments
Loosely based on Chinese sweet and sour chicken, these sweet and sour meatballs are always an instant hit! I’ve made these when I wanted to make a quick tasty meal. Or, even if I’m going to a party and have to bring a dish to share. Just toss on top of some cauliflower rice for a complete meal, or serve the meatballs using some toothpicks for a snack. I wanted to create a simple meatball recipe to go with the sauce. I kept the meatballs simple by using parmesan cheese and onion powder to ...

Hasselback Marinara Chicken
April 4, 2017 by 18 Comments
What if I could give you a stuffed chicken recipe that has no rolling, no twine, no pounding with the mallet, and best of all - no hassle! This easy dinner recipe will fit the bill. The chicken breasts are sliced accordion style and then stuffed with spinach and cheeses. Then it's topped with tomato sauce and mozzarella, and put under the broiler to get brown and goey. This recipe is based off a chicken recipe that a family member taught me. She would use thinly sliced chicken breasts to ...

Keto Gyros
March 30, 2017 by 8 Comments
I had a craving the other day for some nice, big, Gyro sandwiches. You know the ones I'm talking about: hot fluffy bread stuffed with thinly shaved meat, veggies, and of course that yogurt sauce. I'm not even sure what the best part of a Gyro is, they're so good. So I created this keto friendly version that makes use of our coconut flour tortilla recipe. You can easily bake the meat in your oven, so you do not need to own a rotisserie. The meat mixture is put through a food processor in ...

March 28, 2017 by 1 Comment
Here's a buttery roasted chicken dinner that you can put together with ease. First I'll show you how to get your bird trussed for roasting, then we'll give the chicken a nice butter massage.

Then, before the last stretch of the roasting process, we'll throw some Brussels sprouts into pan as well. It's a one pan meal! I don't know about you guys, but I have had a very hard ...

Keto Mississippi Roast
March 23, 2017 by 28 Comments
This keto Mississippi roast can be shoved in your slow cooker early in the day for a hands free but tasty dinner. The shredded beef is punched up with peppery flavors and peperoncinis that almost melt into the meat. There are a number of recipes for this roast style on the internet, but I created this version to not use any spice packages. You can use ingredients that you probably have in your pantry already. I also like to use the sliced peppers instead of the whole peppers. Family ...

Easy Keto Cordon Bleu
March 21, 2017 by 9 Comments
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 ...
