Today I decided to do breadsticks in three different ways: Italian style, extra cheesy, and cinnamon sugar. Two savory flavors which taste absolutely delicious just dipped in some tomato sauce (I use Rao's), and one sweet flavor which tastes fantastic dipped in a cream cheese buttercream (1 oz. Cream Cheese, 2 tbsp. Heavy Cream, and 1 tbsp. Swerve Sweetener). I based this recipe for the breadsticks on the same dough that's used in both the Low Carb Pepperoni Pizza and the Keto Roti John. This ...
Keto Roti John
If you have ever visited Brunei, Malaysia or Singapore, high chance you stumbled upon one of these while strolling through a night market. Roti John as it's called, is a kind of sandwich with a meat-filled omelette inside. They are usually cooked with butter. When bought, the sandwich is smothered heavily with mayonnaise and chili sauce or ketchup. It's then sliced to bite-sized pieces and wrapped with brown paper. The shape is quite distinct and you would instantly know it's Roti John ...

Kitchen Recommendations
If you cook as many meals as I do, you’d give up quite a lot just to save some time in the kitchen. Heck, even if you cook all of your meals for the week in 1 day, wouldn't you want it to be the easiest it can be? I’ll talk about all of my favorite appliances, prep items, and even a few decorative items for when the guests are over. I’ve tried all sorts of blenders, mixers, pots and pans, coffee makers, and random gadgets for the kitchen. I love them, but a lot of them are junk and a lot of ...
Low Carb Pasta a la Carbonara
So, what if I were to tell you that the pasta you see above is actually low carb and fits well into the keto lifestyle? I know, I was gob-smacked too! Pasta and rice have always been the 2 true things that I miss on keto. Cauliflower rice does the trick (especially when fried, mmmm) for one part, but the keto pasta I never figured out. Zoodles, shirataki noodles, kelp noodles...none of them ever did the trick for me. The resemblance was there, but the taste and texture were never there. These ...

Spicy Jalapeno Poppers
Jalapeno poppers are a great way to get flavor and fats into your dinner. If you're tired of oily meals and fatty soups, then this will be the perfect break for you. The cream cheese stays soft and delicious on the inside while the heat of the pepper comes through on every bite. You can easily change up the flavor profile of this by changing the type of cheese you use, the spices that go into the cheese mixture, or chopping up some extra cooked bacon and stuffing that inside also. From prep ...

Low Carb Cinnamon Orange Scones
When I was growing up in England, scones were a staple in my house. But, they didn't have these fancy triangular shapes; rather, they were round, podgy pieces of dough that you cut in half and stick double cream and jam inside. I've become Americanized since though, and wanted to create something that most of the US folks have seen (and like). Triangles or not, scones are definitely a delicious pastry to enjoy with your morning coffee :) I just have to make a confession to everyone and first ...
