Pimento Cheese Dip

Pimento Cheese Dip

January 18, 2018 by 1 Comment

I have a new found love for sweet chilli peppers such as pimento (also known as cherry peppers). They are sweet, spicy, and best yet only 2 carbs per pepper! I recently tried pimento cheese on a burger and I figured...it was time to make it into a dip! This recipe only has 4 ingredients and is incredibly easy to make. In fact, the hardest part was finding the peppers. Now, I couldn’t find any raw pimento peppers, so instead, I picked up a pack (10 pcs) of stuffed cherry antipasto. You ...

Whether summer is in full swing or we are in the depths of a winter freeze, asparagus is always on my menu! There are so many versatile ways to prepare those sturdy green stalks. My absolute favorite way is crispy baked asparagus fries! Yes, I said fries. On keto. Keto-fries. These babies are crispy and cheesy on the outside, but still easy enough to bite into. Fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese add a tangy, bright, dimension that is given a little body with smoked paprika. I love to ...

These delicious bacon and cheese muffins may look carby, but don’t let that fool you. They are only 2.2 net carbs per muffin. Plus, they are so easy to make! For this recipe, you will need cauliflower rice. Some stores do sell the cauliflower pre-chopped, but if you can’t find it, stick the vegetable into a blender and food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower is the size of a grain of rice. It’s fairly straightforward - the only annoyance is cleaning out the blender afterwards! The ...

Up your fat intake with these delicious burger bombs. Cheese stuffed inside sausage and wrapped in bacon! Dip them in your favorite sugar-free condiments and it tastes like it’s straight out of a take out window. The best thing about these burger bombs are that they only require 3 main ingredients.

These smoked salmon and goat cheese bites combine bitter radicchio leaves, smoked salmon, and faintly sweet herbed goat cheese.

Feta and Bacon Bites

May 30, 2017 by 6 Comments

One of my favorite keto things to make is cheese based dough. It is incredibly versatile. These feta and bacon bites are just one of many things that you can make with this type of dough. Not only are these bites super easy to make, but cook time is roughly 15 minutes! They are also a great snack to keep for on-the-go. For this recipe I used a muffin tin, however you don’t have too. You can put these on a cookie sheet (lined with parchment paper) or a silicon baking mat. I used a muffin ...

Soy Sauce Marinated Deviled Eggs

April 18, 2017 by 1 Comment

Do you think that hard boiled eggs are boring? Well, think again! These eggs are marinated just like the eggs you find at a ramen restaurant, then whipped with cream cheese and chives. They're salty with a touch of sweet, and make the perfect appetizer or snack. The first time I encountered a version of this recipe was from a wonderful cookbook by Harumi Kurihara. She is kind of like Martha Stewart in Japan. I was fascinated by these brown dyed eggs, and she suggested toppings like cream ...

Spicy Sausage Cheese Dip

Spicy Sausage Cheese Dip

March 9, 2017 by 5 Comments

I’ve been seeing a lot of Pinterest pins for dips lately. It reminded me of this one Mexican restaurant I used to visit that had the best spicy sausage dip. So in memory of the delicious dip I used to eat, I created my own keto version. I’ve always had a love for spicy foods, and this dip was no exception. For the Italian sausage, I choose to use the hot kind. For an extra kick of spiciness, I added a can of hot Ro*Tel. If you’re not familiar with Ro*Tel, it’s diced tomatoes and green ...
