Hawaiian Hot Dogs

Hawaiian Hot Dogs

August 15, 2017 by 5 Comments

It’s time to bust out the BBQ. Hot dogs are a staple of the summer season, but with keto many people decide to skip the bun. Using cheese based dough to wrap around your hot dog is an ideal option to get in some extra fat and enjoy a bun. Let’s talk toppings. You could use any of your favorite meats or veggies really, but today I decided to try a ‘pizza’ inspired hot dog. Specifically Hawaiian - with pineapple, ham, and bacon! I also topped it with some sriracha mayo. You could also use ...

Low Carb Chips for Keto: What to Buy and How to Make Them Yourself

February 23, 2021 by Leave a Comment

Chips are usually just crunchy carbs slathered with salt and oil. The best examples of this are tortilla chips and potato chips. Their palate-pleasing combination of salt, fat, and carbs makes it unnaturally easy for us to overeat them without feeling full. This is why many of us can easily eat an entire family-sized bag of chips in one sitting (and on a larger scale, this is one of the driving forces behind the rising rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes worldwide). The solution is ...

For most people on keto, weight loss is the easy part. Keeping the weight off, however, is the hard part. The keto diet is often described as the antidote for the vicious cycle of weight loss and weight gain, but it isn't failproof. Though keto can indeed suppress appetite and make fat loss easier to achieve, this may not happen for everyone at first. Fortunately,  if you’re struggling with hunger or weight gain on keto, a simple lifestyle adjustment is often all it takes to get you back on ...

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.

Fat is a key component of the ketogenic diet. In fact, how much fat on keto in your diet will determine whether you achieve your goals or struggle to get the scale moving.

I am 29 years old and have been overweight my whole life, and for as long as I can remember so have my parents. Which is very difficult as both my brother and sister are normal weight and almost skinny. Well, last year I dislocated my left knee and had to have an operation to remove the loose cartilage from beneath the patella. After the operation, I received grim news. My orthopedic surgeon informed me that if I did not start losing weight - I would need a knee replacement within 5 years or ...

Roasted Cajun Cauliflower Steaks

Roasted Cajun Cauliflower Steaks

February 11, 2020 by Leave a Comment

This cauliflower steak recipe is so great because it’s not cauliflower pretending to be rice, pizza crust or even mashed potatoes, but just being a deliciously roasted and seasoned version of itself! These cauliflower “steaks” are obviously not steaks at all, but rather large slices of whole cauliflower that are seasoned and roasted to perfection. The best part about roasting cauliflower in “steak” form is that the flat sides get a little crisp while the center is tender. The trick to ...
