Remember the BBQ Pulled Chicken recipe that I did in the slow cooker the other day? Well it made quite a lot of food, and there was certainly leftovers to go around. I wanted to put something nice together that makes the leftovers seem like a new dish completely. All in all, this takes pretty little effort to put together. Just mixing together the batter for the buns, and the rest is almost auto-pilot cooking. From start to finish it took me maybe 30 minutes - so this would be a great meal if ...

Starbucks Drinks and Hacks for the Keto Diet
November 4, 2019 by 2 Comments
No, your morning Starbucks run doesn't have to wreck your macros. Most of the menu is loaded with sugar - a Grande Caramel Frappuccino has 57g of carbs - but there's a solid lineup of drinks and a few food options that fit within a 20-30g daily net carb budget if you know how to order them. The key is customization. Starbucks lets you swap milk for heavy cream, add sugar-free syrups, and skip the default sweeteners - all through the app or at the register. Once you've got your go-to order ...

Keto Recipe: Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream
November 10, 2013 by 8 Comments
Call it a fat bomb if you will, but I'll call it my temptation atomic bomb. Chocolatey, peanut-buttery, rich, and purely delicious. This is the keto ice cream that I always make when I am having a craving for something sweet. All that fat-filled, creamy richness will fill you up in no time and have your sweet tooth put to sleep in even less. We're going to use cottage cheese to obtain the creaminess that ice cream is known for, but with only a fraction of the carbs. Cottage cheese!? THAT ...

What to Eat on a Cyclical Ketogenic Diet
August 5, 2017 by 16 Comments
Carbohydrates are generally avoided on a ketogenic diet, but they can be utilized with hard workouts that push your body. If you sit all day and eat refined carbohydrates (like cookies, chips, and candy), your risk of heart disease and diabetes increases dramatically — bad. If you use carbohydrates as a way to fuel intense workouts or replenish your body's depleted energy stores, then you can get the most out of your body without any negative side effects — good. The same principle applies ...

Low Carb Macadamia Nut Brownies
December 26, 2013 by 41 Comments
I've been making so many sweets lately that I had to take a bit of a break and allow the leftovers to be eaten before making more. Being on a keto diet, it's hard for me to keep eating sweets, even if they are low carb, because I find my cravings start to come back after I eat them. Low and behold, everything is gone and I wanted to make something I haven't done in a while. I settled on brownies because I haven't really gotten around to making a cake, and I have only been making cookies ...

Keto Whipped Cream
May 26, 2020 by Leave a Comment
Whipped cream is a surprisingly satisfying guilty pleasure, but it doesn’t have to come with the guilt. Unfortunately, most of the recipes and canned products contain enough added sugar to slow your keto progress. Though these sugar-filled options make it seem like all whipped cream is unhealthy, this couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, by just whisking together three ingredients, you can make your own fluffy, airy, and flavorful whipped cream with a fraction of the carbs. This recipe ...

Caesar Salad Bacon Baskets
May 31, 2018 by Leave a Comment
Crisp bacon baskets stuffed with a quick Caesar salad. This fun lunch option is a great way to switch things up. When you fold these to take a bite, you've essentially created Caesar salad tacos - and there's no judgment here on that. These baskets are savory overload. The bacon, Parmesan, and Caesar dressing combine salt and umami. The touch of tomato is not traditional for a Caesar but brings a welcome element of freshness to each bite. I mention this in this again in the steps, but ...
