With St. Patty's day coming up, it's time to figure out how to get as much alcohol into our food as possible. Not only will we be drinking it, but we need to be eating it too. Right...RIGHT? Fine, even if you don't want to drink your food, this is delicious. Very nice hints of vanilla roll through and the alcohol just comes through with enough flavor to balance it out. It will be a little less moist than the other cakes, but it pairs VERY well with a dollop of whipped cream on the top (and a ...

Happy 4th of July Week everyone!

Our 25 Favorite Keto Chicken Recipes
Chicken dishes are so popular that they are the third most widely consumed food in America, following closely behind grain-based desserts and yeast breads. In other words, chicken is the most widely consumed keto-friendly food in the United States. Most chicken dishes, however, come with a carb-rich side like rice or potatoes or chicken that is breaded with high carb ingredients, making a high-protein keto food into an unhealthy meal. Fortunately, there are many low-carb vegetables and keto ...

Goat Cheese Tomato Tarts
When company is coming over and I want to keep all of the recipes I prepare ketogenic, I try to go above and beyond to make things that I normally wouldn't. I like to make things that impress people so that they don't have the wrong idea about this diet. Many people who know me always think that my diet is extremely restrictive, but this is my moment where I show them I can make anything they could - and probably even better. Putting that extra bit of work in to impress people not only helps ...

Keto Gyros
I had a craving the other day for some nice, big, Gyro sandwiches. You know the ones I'm talking about: hot fluffy bread stuffed with thinly shaved meat, veggies, and of course that yogurt sauce. I'm not even sure what the best part of a Gyro is, they're so good. So I created this keto friendly version that makes use of our coconut flour tortilla recipe. You can easily bake the meat in your oven, so you do not need to own a rotisserie. The meat mixture is put through a food processor in ...

The Mediterranean diet is widely recognized as being one of the best diets for weight loss and overall health. When compared to a typical western diet filled with processed foods, this plant-based diet is a safe, effective, and reliable bet. However, conservative approaches typically yield moderate results.

Cumin Crusted Pork Chops
Who can resist a crispy pork chop that's tender and juicy in the middle? You'll have some great eastern flavors coming together in this dish and I'm sure you'll be adding this one to your meal plan! I highly suggest cutting this into thin strips once the pork has been resting for at least 7 minutes after cooking. That way you aren't overwhelmed with the spices. The fragrant hints of cumin are instant when this touches your mouth. Once you start to chew, the crispy texture of the crust comes ...

The Best (and Worst) Mayo For Keto: Store-Bought Brands, Keto Recipes, and What to Avoid
Mayonnaise is arguably the best condiment for the keto diet. Not only does it add a satisfying creaminess to keto-friendly meals, but keto mayo can provide us with a zero-carb source of healthy fats, micronutrients, and antioxidants as well. Unfortunately, not every mayo you find in the store will be optimal for your health. Many mayo products and recipes use unhealthy oils and added sugars, so it is important to be mindful of what you buy (and make) to get the results you want with ...

Salted Toffee Nut Cups
Before I get to the nitty gritty of how mind-blowingly tasty these are, let’s talk about trying to make toffee out of fake sugar. Basically, it’s not easy. It’s not that the task is difficult, toffee is two ingredients and you can make it in the microwave, but it does take your complete attention and diligence. Toffee making waits for no one and it can burn in an instant! So here are the basics: make sure you stir often, watch for a light caramel color to develop, remove when the mix is ...
