I have had my fair share of salads this year and I figured it is time to change it up a bit. I made this salad with hot shrimp and a hot dressing. Serving salads from cold to hot actually changes up the flavor a lot. The hot dressing includes bacon fat, apple cider vinegar, and dijon mustard warmed to perfection!

How to Speed Up Ketosis: 5 Strategies That Actually Work
The typical window for entering ketosis is 2 to 4 days when you cut carbs to 20-30g per day. But plenty of people make mistakes that push them toward the longer end of that window - or past it entirely. Knowing how to speed up ketosis means understanding what's slowing you down.I've been living keto full-time for well over a decade, and the first week is still the most common place people stumble. Not because keto is complicated, but because the transition from burning glucose to burning fat ...

Complete Guide to Keto Friendly Beverages & Energy Drinks
Drinks tend to be the sneakiest sources of calories and sugar in our diets. Fruit juices (including freshly pressed juice), sodas, and even your favorite specialty coffee drink are all filled with so much sugar that they increase your likelihood of gaining fat while making it difficult for your body to get into ketosis. With all of the confusing marketing terms like "low-carb," "low-sugar," "natural," etc. it is hard to tell what drinks are actually keto-friendly and what drinks are just ...

Targeted Ketogenic Diet (TKD): An In-depth Look
The Targeted Ketogenic Diet (TKD), simply put, is a standard keto diet that is supplemented with carbohydrate intake around your workout times. That means any day you exercise, you will typically be consuming pre workout carbs. The TKD is meant to improve exercise performance for high-intensity workouts or extended bouts of activity.

10 Easy Keto Dinner Meals for Busy Weeknights
I started keto back in 2014, and I've gotten pretty good at figuring out which dinners actually happen on a Tuesday night versus which ones I'm kidding myself about. The reality is that most weeknights I've got about 30 minutes, questionable motivation, and whatever's in the fridge. That's the whole constraint. And I've learned that the recipes I actually cook on those nights have a few things in common: minimal cleanup, reliable results, and enough fat and protein that I'm not hungry two hours ...

10 Keto Breakfast Recipes That Aren’t Just Eggs
Eggs are fine. I eat them probably four days a week. But after over a decade on keto, I know what happens around month three: you open the fridge, see the egg carton, and close it again. That's not a diet problem. That's a variety problem. The good news is that keto breakfast doesn't have to mean scrambled eggs with bacon on repeat. These 10 recipes cover everything from the cinnamon roll waffle I make when I want something that actually feels like a treat, to the meal replacement shake I throw ...

10 Keto Lunch Recipes That Are Easy & Satisfying
Lunch is where a lot of people fall off keto. Not because dinner is hard, but because midday options feel like a choice between sad salads and skipping the meal entirely. I've been eating this way for over a decade, and lunch was the last meal I actually figured out. Breakfast and dinner clicked pretty early. Lunch took longer, mostly because I kept defaulting to the same rotation of deli meat and cheese on repeat. These 10 recipes changed that. The Venezuelan Chicken Salad alone has become ...

Our Top 10 Keto Muffin Recipes
Ever since the end of the 18th century, American style muffins have been the perfect excuse to have something sweet and cakey for breakfast. It all began with simple ingredients like sugar and flour to make a quick sweet bread, then they started adding sweet treats like fruit and chocolate or savory foods like bacon, cheese, and herbs. The result is a delicious breakfast that everyone loves, but the flour and other carb-rich ingredients make them into a low carb keto dieters nightmare. The ...
