I've never been a big fan of the flavor of coconut (I know, I know), so fat bombs have never held much appeal to me. Then I discovered that coconut butter (also called coconut cream) has less of that coconut taste. To make things even better, I discovered cacao butter. Cacao butter is the fat extracted from the cacao been. It smells like chocolate, but is an off white color. As soon as I started working with it, I realized this would be my ticket to making white chocolate. Because of the ...

Fried Cookie Dough Balls
January 18, 2014 by 6 Comments
I've been trying to find a way to make fried cookie dough for a while, and with almond flour alone the texture just doesn't come through. The batter doesn't get thick enough...and coconut flour is something that I don't like to use. It falls apart and becomes very dry. Protein powder (casein to be exact) was the key! Optimum Nutrition is one of my favorite brands for both protein powder and casein powder. Not to mention they make great multivitamins, vitamins, and other supplements. There's ...

10 Easy Keto Snack Recipes That’ll Beat Your Munchies
June 13, 2026 by Leave a Comment
Snacking on keto gets a bad reputation. People think it means cucumber slices and plain almonds. After years of eating this way, I can tell you that's not how it has to go. The problem isn't keto, it's that most snack recipes don't actually hit the spot. They fill a macro line without doing anything for the craving that started it. This list is different. These are the snacks I actually make when I'm hungry between meals and don't want to undo the rest of my day. The keto pizza cups alone have ...

Low Carb Sweet & Sour Chicken
December 21, 2013 by 76 Comments
Chinese food has been a weakness for me since I first tasted it. Fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, general tso's, chow mein. Everything I can't have on a ketogenic diet. If you're missing the fried rice, don't fret - you can make an accompanying Cauliflower Fried Rice! Through the years I have built up a resistance to Chinese food, eventually not getting cravings for it and not even thinking about it. The other day I was surfing the internet and saw a picture of some delicious looking sweet ...

Thai Chicken Zoodles
January 11, 2015 by 8 Comments
This is a keto-fied version of Fried Noodles, or Mee Goreng, inspired by the Japanese version of Yaki Udon. These have a slight Indian influence on them since my friend is from Brunei. His mom used to get this for him whenever she went to the coffee shop, and he wanted to re-create it! The typical ingredients in this are ketchup, chili paste, potato, tomato, tofu, sweet and dark soy sauce, and it's served with a citrus and chili sauce. There are three well known versions of this: chicken, ...

Keto Apple Fritter Cookies
May 23, 2023 by Leave a Comment
These special Keto Apple Fritter Cookies have a low carb content per cookie and are a perfect mouthwatering treat for those on a Keto lifestyle. Because apples are a high-carb fruit, we have swapped them out here with zucchini. While it may seem odd, the texture is almost identical, and this recipe leans into flavor with delectable coconut flour, cream cheese, and cinnamon. These come up crispy on the outside and impossibly chewy and gooey when you bite in.  This recipe makes 12, so you ...

Handcrafted Mayonnaise
December 6, 2013 by 54 Comments
Mayonnaise is one of my favorite condiments to make. No matter how many times I make it, there's just something about watching something come together and emulsify like mayo that's always interesting. I love how making it with my stick blender (aka emulsion blender) is super fast and easy. There are so many variations you can make with homemade mayo, but this is my favorite. I use expeller pressed coconut oil, because there is no coconut taste. Also, I always use fresh farm eggs (and ...
