Reverse Seared Ribeye Steak

Reverse Seared Ribeye Steak

April 27, 2015 by 12 Comments

This is by far the best method for tender steak you will ever use. Both my girlfriend and I agreed that this was the best steak we've both ever eaten, be it from a restaurant or at home. It's opened my eyes and I don't think I'll ever be making a steak any other way. The thing I love most about this method is that you don't get any rings on the internal cook of the meat. You don't have half an inch of well-done meat from the hard sear, it's a perfectly rare (or whatever temperature you take ...

Egg Salad Stuffed Avocado

Egg Salad Stuffed Avocado

Normally I'm one of the very few people on this planet that actually says, "I hate avocados." I just kept seeing so many people loving them and loving them, so I decided to give them a try again. When I was growing up, I actually had an avocado tree and I just never liked the taste, texture, or really anything about the suckers. But lately I just wanted to like them so much that I bought a bag. Boy oh boy, my tastes have changed or something because I really love them now! Salt and pepper ...

Keto Tortilla Chips

Keto Tortilla Chips

February 19, 2015 by 8 Comments

Imagine if you went to Taco Bell right now and ordered a chalupa, then came home and deep fried it. Now, imagine if that same chalupa was low-carb and keto friendly. This is what the keto tortilla chips reminded me of. An exceptional cross-breed baby between a regular tortilla chip and a bready, soft chalupa. For the original flaxseed tortilla recipe, I used curry powder originally. It's up to you to season with whatever you'd like. This time I chose garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and ...

This beer cheese soup has all the elements of a great meal: heavy cream, crumbly bacon, melted cheese, and low-carb beer.  Make sure you check out our article on keto friendly beers. We use a bit of xanthan gum and cheese as a thickener to help the soup be just as creamy as higher carb versions of this recipe.   You can find this in the gluten-free section of your grocery store.  If for some reason you can't find it locally, then try ordering it online.  We use it a lot for thickening ...

Cyclical Ketogenic Diet: An In-depth Look

Cyclical Ketogenic Diet: An In-depth Look

November 5, 2013 by 39 Comments

To follow a ketogenic diet properly, you must restrict daily carbohydrates to around 20-30g of net carbs. This simple rule should be followed by everyone who is on a ketogenic diet, but there is one exception — athletes. By "athletes" I mean anyone who is doing high-intensity type training multiple times a week. During high-intensity exercise, the body relies on glucose for fuel rather than fat. To provide our muscles with the sugar they need to perform high-intensity training, we must ...

What Are Ketones? Everything You Need to Know

What Are Ketones? Everything You Need to Know

August 9, 2017 by 3 Comments

One miraculous energy source has garnered the attention of many nutrition experts and researchers over the past decade. No, it is not carbohydrates, fats, or even protein. We call them ketones or ketone bodies (more on the difference between the two later). To your body, however, ketones are nothing new. In fact, your heart and renal cortex (the part of the kidney where ultrafiltration occurs) are using ketones as fuel right now. These cells prefer to use ketones instead of sugar. After ...

There’s something so nourishing and comforting about a good steak fajita bowl. The slightly spiced and fragrant steak is mixed with colorful veggies and herbs before being placed on a bed of warm rice. Our version is just as moreish while being adapted for a keto-friendly lifestyle. Apart from being an incredible source of protein, the rich and deep flavor of steak soaks up the fajita seasoning well. Think a slightly spicy and salty mix with intense flavor and you’ve got our delicious spice ...

What is the Keto Flu & How to Remedy It?

What is the Keto Flu & How to Remedy It?

September 5, 2017 by 10 Comments

Adapting to the ketogenic diet can feel like the flu. Tiredness, fatigue, stomach pains, and dizziness are common symptoms that the ketogenic diet beginner can experience, but these symptoms don't come from a ketogenic virus or an infected mosketo (like “mosquito” — sorry, I couldn't resist). In fact, the symptoms for keto flu are not even caused by ketosis, ketogenesis, or the flu at all. The keto flu is caused by the body's response to carbohydrate restriction. Here's a quick video that ...

Keto Tea: Iced Green Tea Recipe

Keto Tea: Iced Green Tea Recipe

January 13, 2014 by 42 Comments

Despite having tons of health benefits, keto tea fits right on in with my breakfast and lunch schedule. I do intermittent fasting, and ketoproof tea gives me plenty of energy along with satiation through the morning fasting hours. I decided to take on an iced approach since I really like a cold drink in the morning and it helps me get it down much quicker in my morning eating window. Since I don't do a full day fasting, drinking ketoproof tea in the morning really ramps up my metabolism with ...
