Written by kjudd on Reddit. He has given me permission to post this here. Right, so I've read the easiest thing to try when dipping your feet into charcuterie was bacon. Let's just say that affordable bacon here is, well…crap. I’m talking about main supermarket branded stuff here, none of the higher quality artisan bacon. I underlined affordable because, I, like most of you eat this stuff a lot. So, I figured if I can make a higher quality bacon at home for a similar price, why not? ...

Instant Pot Ribs with White Barbecue Sauce
Baby back ribs are a barbecue staple. There are many ways to prepare them, but the general rule is to cook them low and slow to achieve tender, fall-off-the bone meat that’s full of flavor. And unless you own an outdoor smoker, that usually means cooking ribs for several hours in the oven on low heat. But who wants to heat up the oven for hours at a time when it’s 100 degrees outside? I turned to my Instant Pot to create a rib recipe that turns out tender, flavorful, ribs in a fraction of ...

5 Minute Keto Pesto
Typically pesto is a very simple recipe of basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and olive oil. Over the years people have added more and more ingredients to this classic recipe in order to adapt to tastes and preferences. My personal addition is the tomato paste. I felt like the original version of this recipe was slightly bitter with the basil and pine nuts competing for top flavor. A touch of tomato paste adds some acidity, sweetness, and cuts back on the bitterness. On keto, ...

Keto Chicken Salad
Chicken salad is one of the best keto staples. With the right ingredients, it checks all the boxes for a perfect keto-friendly meal: satisfying, delicious, healthy, convenient, and versatile. The only problem is that all chicken salads aren’t made the same. Some are too rich, some have too much vinegar, and others come with unnecessary high-carb ingredients. Finding the right balance of flavors and textures is a challenge, so we decided to take chicken salad to the keto kitchen for a makeover. ...

Complete Guide to Exercise on the Ketogenic Diet
Exercise more, and you'll have better health. Follow the ketogenic diet, and you'll lose weight rapidly and take your health to the next level. But what happens when you combine the two?

Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl (Crack Slaw)
Egg rolls are delicious. They're crispy, packed full of flavor, and easy to eat, but they are far from being keto-friendly. At first, I thought it would be impossible to emulate an egg roll on keto. However, when I took the first bite of this egg roll in a bowl (AKA crack slaw), I forgot all about the wrapper. Now, whenever the craving hits, I know I can whip up a keto egg roll in a bowl in half the time it takes to get takeout. Are Egg Rolls Keto? Egg rolls are not keto-friendly. They ...

The sesame almond zoodle bowl is the perfect vehicle for this amazing sauce. Peanut sauce has been one of my favorite dipping and drizzling sauces for everything from low carb egg rolls to an overflowing bowl of stir fry veggies. Sadly, I’ve recently begun reducing my peanut intake. I’ve been focusing on more recipes that incorporate keto friendly nuts and nut butters like cashews and almonds and I have fallen in love! Swapping traditional peanut butter with almond butter for this sweet ...

Asian Grilled Keto Short Ribs
As most of you know, I'm a huge fan of Asian food and flavors. Surprisingly, I've never had flanken cut short ribs (most familiar with the Korean style short ribs). I found them in the supermarket a few weeks back and grabbed some to try. I have to tell you - they are well worth it! They're not too expensive, they're extremely tender and delicious, and best of all - packed full of fats. I didn't have any Kimchi on hand, so I served with some purple cabbage, cilantro and a soy/vinegar ...
