Hearty Pot Pie
November 30, 2013 by 3 Comments
Ever since I made the recipe for the pecan pie, I've been in love with this pie crust. I ended up using it when I made a pie out of these low carb pumpkin cheesecake tarts. It was then that I started thinking of savory uses for the pie crust. It's the closest thing I've ever gotten to a traditional pie crust, and with turkey leftovers from Thanksgiving, it only made sense to think of using it to make a pot pie. For this one I used up the leftover veggies I had on hand. I used roasted radishes ...

Most of you already know I'm a big fan of savory food, so if you are too - you'll definitely appreciate this new found favorite of mine! Now, you may be thinking this sounds just a tad too decadent, but it is definitely worth the time it takes to make! The crispy cauliflower waffle is a fantastic counter-part to the sweet and salty ground beef and bacon mixture. The cheese on top is just like the icing on a cake - it has to be there and you know it's all the much better for being so. I ...

What is the Keto Flu & How to Remedy It?
September 5, 2017 by 22 Comments
Adapting to the ketogenic diet can feel like the flu. Tiredness, fatigue, stomach pains, and dizziness are common symptoms that the ketogenic diet beginner can experience, but these symptoms don't come from a ketogenic virus or an infected mosketo (like “mosquito” — sorry, I couldn't resist). In fact, the symptoms for keto flu are not even caused by ketosis, ketogenesis, or the flu at all. The keto flu is caused by the body's response to carbohydrate restriction. Here's a quick video that ...

Ham and Cheese Keto Stromboli
October 18, 2015 by 42 Comments
When you begin a ketogenic diet, entertaining might be one of the worries you have. It's not the easiest task to overcome when you have to serve people food they can enjoy and that you can also eat. A great finger food that you can make ahead of time is a stromboli. Stromboli is traditionally served rolled up like a roll cake, but in American cuisine, most pizza places will serve their stromboli folded up similarly to a calzone. You can think of this as a very large savory danish that you ...

The Best 10 Keto Cookie Recipes
October 2, 2019 by Leave a Comment
Grain-based desserts are the number one source of calories across all ages in the United States. One of the most popular grain-based desserts is cookies.

Lemon & Rosemary Low Carb Shortbread
December 14, 2013 by 15 Comments
Can I really call these shortbread cookies? Well yes. The consistency is pretty crumbly, similar to shortbread. The sweetness aspect, however, isn't much like them at all. Think tea-cakes when you take a bite into this crumbly goodness. The second you put these in your mouth, it's hit with a refreshing wave of lemon. Hints of salt might come through before the rosemary finally takes the first strike. When it does, the herbaceousness will fill your mouth for only a moment before the lemon ...
