Keto White Pizza Frittata

Keto White Pizza Frittata

Frittatas are a fantastic food to make when you're meal prepping or have little time in the morning to wait for breakfast to cook. They're great microwaved, re-heated in the oven, or just plain cold (which is my favorite). Today we're going to make a ketogenic friendly white pizza frittata. Traditionally, a white pizza is the dough and cheese on top (in a nutshell). Instead, we use different cheeses in the frittata base, and top with a delicious mozzarella and pepperoni combo. Inside is the ...

Using Supplements to Maximize your Ketogenic Diet

Using Supplements to Maximize your Ketogenic Diet

One of the most common questions we get from people is how to utilize supplements to maximize their results. Although science shows that the ketogenic diet is an effective way to lower blood sugar, control insulin resistance, optimize blood lipid levels, and aid in the treatment of some of the most prevalent and lethal conditions, supplements are more alluring than ever before. In fact, about 145 million Americans use nutritional supplements each year—that's almost one-half of the population. ...

The Ketogenic Diet and Insulin Resistance

The Ketogenic Diet and Insulin Resistance

We recently touched on how you can use the ketogenic diet to control symptoms of diabetes such as elevated glucose and triglycerides. In this article, we examine research showing the impact that the ketogenic diet has on levels of the hormone insulin, a key regulator of blood sugar in the body. What is Insulin’s Role in the Body? Before we look at the research, we need to know our main players. Insulin is a protein-based hormone produced by beta-cells located in the pancreas. The ...

Keto Coconut Curry Chicken Tenders

Keto Coconut Curry Chicken Tenders

If you've ever been a fan of coconut shrimp, this recipe's for you! The classic coconut shrimp gets a twist with chicken and a deep curry flavor that runs throughout. To match alongside it, we pair pork rinds with the chicken to bring the flavors out and allow for a crispy chicken tender. Never thought you'd have crunchy on keto? Think again. To make the flavors of the chicken nuggets really sing, I decided that a dipping sauce was absolutely mandatory for this. A sweet and spicy mango ...

Asian Grilled Keto Short Ribs

Asian Grilled Keto Short Ribs

As most of you know, I'm a huge fan of Asian food and flavors. Surprisingly, I've never had flanken cut short ribs (most familiar with the Korean style short ribs). I found them in the supermarket a few weeks back and grabbed some to try. I have to tell you - they are well worth it! They're not too expensive, they're extremely tender and delicious, and best of all - packed full of fats. I didn't have any Kimchi on hand, so I served with some purple cabbage, cilantro and a soy/vinegar ...

5 Minute Keto Pesto

5 Minute Keto Pesto

Typically pesto is a very simple recipe of basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and olive oil. Over the years people have added more and more ingredients to this classic recipe in order to adapt to tastes and preferences.  My personal addition is the tomato paste. I felt like the original version of this recipe was slightly bitter with the basil and pine nuts competing for top flavor.  A touch of tomato paste adds some acidity, sweetness, and cuts back on the bitterness. On keto, ...

5 Minute Keto Raspberry Vinaigrette

5 Minute Keto Raspberry Vinaigrette

We went out for lunch recently and had a salad that came with a raspberry vinaigrette. Of course knowing it would be laden with sugar, I made sure I got it on the side to confirm my suspicions. When the salad came to the table, I dipped my finger in the dressing to give it a taste - and not surprisingly found it ridiculously sweet. The flavor, though, was amazing. Once we got home, we knew exactly what we needed to do. Recreate this vinaigrette without the carbs and sugar - so we could ...

Mini Keto Pancake Donuts

Mini Keto Pancake Donuts

It's a cause for celebration! Not only is it Friday today, it's also National Donut Day. Time to whip out the donut maker and crank up the heat, because it's donuts for breakfast this morning. These donuts are so incredibly simple. All in all, it takes about 5 minutes to get the batter put together, and around 20 minutes to cook all of them - 25 minutes from start to finish and you'll have a plate packed full of delicious, decadent morsels. These little guys taste fantastic. Though I do ...

Cheese Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

Cheese Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

Here's another super simple, extremely delicious keto lunch or dinner that you can do! It takes a total of about 10 minutes to prep everything, but the rest of the time you just have to wait for the oven to be done. It doesn't get much easier than this. Cheese stuffed bacon wrapped hot dogs would taste exactly how you expect - very savory, rich, and fatty. The bacon really crisps up nicely, but if you want to, you can always broil it for a little extra crisp at the end. You can also use ...

Keto Tater Tots

Keto Tater Tots

Tater Tots were an obsession of mine as a kid. Ever since my mom used to buy them, they'd always be requested by me in place of mashed potatoes. They're crispy, they're crunchy, and they're just plain good. Being that I'm keto now, I decided to take it upon myself to delve into the creativity of my childhood and re-create this favorite of mine with keto tater tots. You definitely won't miss the potato here, and unlike many other cauliflower goods - you can't actually taste much of the ...
