Low Carb Corned Beef Cabbage Rolls
Okay, okay. I know I promised to bring you savory mug cakes and I definitely will - I just thought a nice intermittent break would be useful for the people that don't always enjoy mug cakes. Don't worry though, they're coming soon! These cabbage rolls are really an awesome way to eat corned beef. I knew for sure I was making corned beef for St. Patty's day (and sorry I didn't post this yesterday, I had it for dinner last night), but I didn't know what way I would eat it. Once I took the ...

London Broil is Falling Down
Every once in a while we just need something that consists of throwing a piece of meat and a couple spices into a slow cooker. Go off to work, or out of the house, and then come back to a fully cooked and delicious meal. If that's your case, this is the one for you! The meat ends up being extremely tender and pulls apart with a spoon. In memory of an old nursery rhyme I sang as a kid: "London broil is falling down, falling down, falling down. London broil is falling down, my fair lady. London ...

Not Your Cavemans Chili
When I think of chili, I think of a deep, rich, and thick sauce clinging to firm pieces of beef. Beans scattered throughout each bite, and a nice small crunch of onions and peppers as you get through the bowl. Something that warms you up on a cold winter night, and keeps you full for the rest of the evening. Something that's hearty and delicious! The ground meat portion of this recipe will add a similar texture to that of what beans would. The larger chunks of meat give a great firm texture, ...

BBQ Pulled Chicken Sliders
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 ...

Low Carb Chili with a Kick
I've been trying to find a good chili recipe over the last few months, and I've finally found one worth posting. It's got a bit of carbs in it, but the taste makes it well worth it. It's very filling, very tasty, and gives you satiety for hours to come. It's a bit spicy, so if you are not into that sort of thing, feel free to sub out the tomatoes with jalapeno for just tomatoes. Once you have finished the "cooking" process in the slow cooker, the chili is still a bit watery from the tomato ...

Instant Pot Artichoke Dip
This artichoke and spinach dip is just like your favorite restaurant appetizer, but you can make this one at home in just a few minutes. Chopped artichoke hearts and spinach are mixed into an ultra cheesy, and super filling dip. Don't have an Instant Pot? That's OK! You can also put this in the slower cooker on low for a few hours, or even just cook it on the stove. I like using the Instant Pot more because it's faster and easier to clean. I used Swiss cheese in this dip because I like ...
