My story starts like a lot of you. For decades I had used food as a coping mechanism for stress, depression, and anxiety. Eventually I ran into health issues including sleep apnea, pre type 2 diabetes, sky high blood pressure, and kidney stones. After doing some heavy research, I decided to go into the Keto diet. As a Strongman competitor, I had the exercise part down pat. My major issue is I was always hungry. I could eat every hour with no issue. I needed help with being satisfied with my ...

Looking for a pizza option that doesn't use almond or coconut flour? Try this buffalo chicken crust pizza. The crust is made from ground chicken thighs! It's topped with a creamy buffalo sauce, cheeses, and celery. It's very filling and you'll love how simple this is to create. Ground chicken can be harder to find and very expensive at the grocery stores I visit. So I decided to make this crust using boneless and skinless chicken thighs. You can often find these on sale, and it's easy to ...

It tasted great but was far from low carb. This keto chicken and rice casserole recipe is much healthier, uses simple ingredients, and still feeds a crowd. It uses some of my ...

Bacon Wrapped Asparagus with Garlic Aioli
June 16, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Bacon wrapped asparagus is something that you can serve up to guests (or yourself) and feel good about it. The bitter and distinct, yet delicious, flavors of the asparagus paired with the rich and hearty bacon come together to form a fantastic combination. Pair that with a smooth and thick garlic aioli to top it all off and you have a winner on your hands. I've never been much of a fan of asparagus, but cooked right and wrapped in bacon - I will eat it any day! When I'm lacking fats in a side ...

Side dishes have become something that we argue about in my house. From who has to make it, to how long it'll take while cooking the main meal - it usually ends up being a salad because nobody wants to do the extra work. Luckily though, roasted broccoli is quickly becoming a staple here because of the simplicity of making it. It's practically pre-heating your oven, seasoning some broccoli, and stuffing it in the oven for some fantastic hands-off flavors to develop. It doesn't get much better ...

If you've had lamb at a Mediterranean or even middle eastern restaurant, you'll know exactly what this tastes like. It tastes just like ...
