One of my all-time favorites. My go-to when I used to order from the Chinese take away. One of the reasons I got fat in the first place. General Tso's Chicken. The sweet, spicy, savory mixture of sticky sauce slathering that chicken is something I never wanted to forget. This goes great with Cauliflower Fried Rice! I've been experimenting with the sauce since I made the sweet and sour chicken, and I've hit the nail on the head! This is one recipe that those of us on a ketogenic diet ...

Artichokes with Keto-Friendly Anchovy Mayonnaise
June 28, 2018 by Leave a Comment
Artichokes are a low calorie and nutrient-dense vegetable. It is a good source of magnesium (we need that in keto!) and antioxidants. Artichokes do not take much to prepare. All you need is a pot of salted boiling water. It is great for "keto-on-the-go" because cooking can be finished the night before. Make sure though, to let it cool completely and keep it covered in the refrigerator. No reheating necessary but, if you must, a microwave will do. Tender artichoke petals is a good ...

Thai Chili Lime Meatballs
May 2, 2014 by 6 Comments
I haven't done meatballs in a while and I wanted to see if I could put an Asian twist on some of the meats I had in the fridge. Well, I had ground pork and ground beef - so it was an easy one. Tons of limes are found throughout my house because I love them to bits - so I tossed some lime juice in pretty much everything I could and called it a day. These meatballs pack a bit of a punch, so if you're the type of person that doesn't like the heat, de-seed your chili peppers! The taste? Well, the ...

How Much Fat Should You Eat on a Ketogenic Diet?
June 29, 2018 by 15 Comments
Fat is a key component of the ketogenic diet. In fact, how much fat on keto in your diet will determine whether you achieve your goals or struggle to get the scale moving. For example, If you eat too much fat, then your weight loss progress will stall, and you may even start to gain more body fat. On the other hand, If you don't eat enough, then you will lose weight at an unhealthy pace while fighting off hunger pangs and fatigue. To find the Goldilocks amount of fat you must eat to meet ...

Toffee Nut Cake Donuts
June 12, 2018 by 3 Comments
I have been seeing beautiful donut creations all over Instagram lately and it’s been inspiring me to make some ornate donuts that are keto friendly! I am a firm believer that food should look as good as it tastes. I’ve been on a toffee nut kick so I decided to make a simple vanilla cake donut. Then I decorated it with sweet and salty toffee nuts, and a healthy dose of low-carb dark chocolate coating. I added a touch of coconut because it’s pretty and it tastes good. It’s a win-win! But the ...

10 Easy Keto Instant Pot Recipes
May 30, 2026 by Leave a Comment
I got my first Instant Pot about six years into keto, and my only regret is that I waited that long. Before it, I was cooking pork chops in a cast iron pan and spending 45 minutes I didn't have on a Tuesday night. Now those same chops are done in under 20 minutes and the cleanup is one pot. That's the pitch for pressure cooking in general, not magic, just speed and hands-off time. You dump things in, set the timer, walk away. If you're doing keto and you don't own one yet, this post might push ...
