What is the Slow Carb Diet?

What is the Slow Carb Diet?

Like the ketogenic diet, the slow carb diet is based on simple rules and low-carb whole foods that can help promote fat loss and health improvement. Both diets have led to incredible weight loss results of 100 pounds or more. That being said, the slow carb diet sets itself apart from other low-carb diet plans in many ways, including the incorporation of some carb-rich foods and a cheat day once a week. This approach may sound refreshingly easy, and it can be highly effective, but there are ...

Keto Bites: Grilled Ham & Cheese

Keto Bites: Grilled Ham & Cheese

Being on a ketogenic diet can have its downfalls at times. Not being able to eat our favorite foods, our comfort foods, or the sweets we may crave. It takes willpower, but there's always a way to get around it. Adapting and experimenting always yields results in the kitchen, and this time I'm aiming for a low carb grilled ham and cheese. Don't you miss it? The first bite you take out of that crisp bread and you can actually hear the crunch of the top and bottom layers cracking beneath the ...

Lakeya’s 70 Pound Weight Loss Journey

Lakeya’s 70 Pound Weight Loss Journey

I've always struggled with my weight since my teen years. I never really noticed how big I was until I stepped on the scale a few years ago and saw 360! I cried with pure shock and disbelief. I'm almost 6'3 and carry my weight very well. So I didn't feel 360. I tried to eat somewhat healthy (terrible on the weekends) and work out 6 days a week. I lost about 40 pounds in 2 years! That wasn't impressive for someone at 360. So last year in May I gave keto a shot. I found ruled.me and studied ...

Keto French Toast Muffins

Keto French Toast Muffins

Come on, just admit it. You haven't had french toast in a while and you want it now. This is the perfect excuse to get that cinnamon-y, semi-crunchy, delicious taste. You can put some twists of your own on this one for sure. Add maple extract or Walden Farms Maple Syrup. You can add allspice, clove, or any other spice you see fit and think would work well. My intentions was to keep this simple, so almost everyone could make this. Keep in mind that I normally don't eat berries, and I ...

Peanut Butter Pancakes

Peanut Butter Pancakes

A great deal of you out there use the coveted Cream Cheese Pancakes from IBIH. I have nothing against her (she's an amazing cook), but I do have something against her pancakes. They're just not fluffy enough for me! I will say they make fantastic crepes but when I bite into a pancake I want to be ripping it apart and chewing it afterward. If you love peanut butter (and I think most of us on keto do), then you'll definitely love these. There's a couple of people out there that can't deal ...

Goat Cheese Tomato Tarts

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 ...

Pancakes with Cream Cheese Topping

Pancakes with Cream Cheese Topping

Pancakes are one of the many breakfast foods that are almost always too high in carbs for the keto diet when prepared traditionally. This is the ultimate flour-less low carb, high fat pancake recipe. The main ingredients to hold the pancakes together are eggs and cottage cheese, which get slightly crispy on the outside when cooked. Once crisp, we serve with a rich pesto cream cheese topping and sliced onions to cut through the deep savory flavors. You'll be sure to love this ...
