My LCHF/keto journey has been unique to me, just like most others truthfully. When I started during June of 2016, I was fed up with being tired all the time, having no energy, struggling to stand up from a floor-seated position, and having to take meds for constant acid reflux. I wasn’t 100% sure how to eat because as a vegetarian, I didn’t eat red meat, pork, chicken, or beef. I decided to add fish and other seafood back to my diet to make this work, and I figured out how to move forward by ...

Keto Cauliflower Pizza Crust
May 28, 2020 by 1 Comment
Though cauliflower is a low-carb vegetable, not all cauliflower crust pizzas are keto-friendly. In fact, most store-bought products and restaurant-made cauliflower crusts have around the same amount of net carbs as traditional flour-based pizza. As with most of your favorite dishes, your best option is to make it yourself -- especially when you want pizza. This is the most reliable way to get all the flavors and textures you crave without slowing your progress. All you need is the right ...

Keto Milk Substitutes: The Best, the Worst, Tips, and Recipes
December 21, 2019 by Leave a Comment
With all of the butter, cheese, and heavy cream you can eat on the keto diet, it is easy to forget that dairy milk is packed with carbs and sugar (from lactose). Because of this, milk is not a good drink to have on keto. This rings true for ALL dairy milks -- including whole, 1%, 2%, and skim -- each one being far from keto-friendly. That being said, there are plenty of low-carb milk alternatives you can easily find in any grocery store. Whether you want to cut carbs or dairy from your ...

Keto Taco Salad with Guacamole & Salsa
February 22, 2022 by Leave a Comment
Mexican has always been one of my favorites, even before going keto. It can be switched up to fit any diet, so if you are ever cooking for someone with an allergy, it is usually pretty easy to omit or find a replacement for them. For this taco salad, I made a simple base of lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. I layered it with taco meat, made some homemade guacamole, added in some creamy salsa, and garnished with some lime juice, cilantro, and Mexican cheese on top! Yields 4 servings of ...

Keto Reuben Cabbage Rolls
August 22, 2019 by Leave a Comment
Do you love Reuben sandwiches? I love this adult version of grilled cheese. The classic Reuben piles meat, Swiss, sauerkraut, and dressing between slices of grilled rye bread. For simplicity, we replace the bread with cabbage rolls and turn the whole thing into a delicious casserole. We included a recipe for Thousand Island dressing, but if you have a premade dressing that you like better then feel free to use it. Just make sure that it’s sugar-free because many of them have added sugar. ...
