Maple Asparagus Salad

Maple Asparagus Salad

February 28, 2019 by Leave a Comment

The Maple Asparagus Salad is an explosion of colors and textures. It’s crisp, juicy, and crunchy with a hint of sweetness. The maple balsamic dressing works wonders when paired with both feta cheese and asparagus. The maple asparagus salad is great for spring and summer dinners, cookouts, and picnics. There’s minimal prep time; the most time-consuming part of this recipe is cooking and preparing the asparagus spears. You also don’t have to dunk them in cold water afterward, however, it’s ...

Complete Guide to Keto Camping, Hiking, and Backpacking

January 6, 2021 by Leave a Comment

There is no better time to get out and surround ourselves with nature, but what are you supposed to eat? Ironically, the most popular camping foods, meals, and snacks are so highly processed that they bear little resemblance to real food. From the chips to the sugar-filled trail mix, the hotdog buns to the deli salads (and let’s not forget about s’mores), most classic camping foods are packed with processed carbs and far from being healthy. That being said, it is surprisingly simple to ...

Is Honey Keto? What 1 Tablespoon Actually Does to Your Carb Budget

Is Honey Keto? What 1 Tablespoon Actually Does to Your Carb Budget

September 6, 2026 by Leave a Comment

No, honey is not keto. One tablespoon of raw honey contains roughly 17 grams of net carbs - which is most of your daily budget if you're keeping carbs in the 20-30g range. That's not a rounding error. That's a single drizzle wiping out the better part of a day's work.I get why people ask. Honey feels different from table sugar. It's natural, it's been used for thousands of years, and there's always someone who insists that raw or manuka honey is somehow fine because of its nutrients or ...

The Best 10 Keto Bread Recipes

January 13, 2018 by Leave a Comment

Bread is one of most widely consumed foods in westernized societies. In the United States, it is the second most commonly eaten food, following closely behind grain-based desserts. This data is not surprising when you consider how many popular food items come with bread. From delicious foods that use bread as an edible food delivery mechanism like sandwiches and hamburgers to the meals that are served with a side of bread like soups, salads, and pasta, it is almost astonishing that we don't ...

Blue Cheese and Bacon Salad

Blue Cheese and Bacon Salad

May 17, 2018 by 1 Comment

Oh man - if you’ve never had blue cheese and bacon together then you are in for a real treat. It is very delicious, and a combination that makes this salad one of the best I’ve ever had. Now this recipe is very similar to a Cobb salad, but minus a few ingredients. I would recommend adding some hard boiled eggs to this delicious dish if you want. It gives it a bit more variety, however by itself, this salad is still perfect. Yields 6 servings of Blue Cheese and Bacon Salad The ...

Charred Veggie and Fried Goat Cheese Salad

Charred Veggie and Fried Goat Cheese Salad

October 3, 2017 by 4 Comments

There are not many salads I will eat without a dressing because, well, salad without dressing feels like chomping down on a pile of dry leaves. I prefer my salad leaves to be anything but dry and boring. That’s why I absolutely fell in love with the idea of a hot salad and char grilling is the way to go! If you are looking for something hearty and warm, but still gives you that crunch you crave from veggies, I highly recommend making this salad immediately! Not to mention, the bite of a ...
