Pumpkin Pie Spice Scone Cookies

Pumpkin Pie Spice Scone Cookies

I recently went to Trader Joe's and saw that they had some Pumpkin Scone cookies on sale. It seemed almost too good to be true when I laid my eyes on them, but I definitely wanted to re-create these and have them be a part of my keto repertoire as soon as possible. Truth be told, my girlfriend has a bit of a sweet tooth and was really insistent on having a keto version. So, after heading to the farmer's market, I saw these beautiful squash on sale for only $1 per! I couldn't resist as the ...

I Am Half the Person That I Used to Be and Will Never, Ever Go Back

I Am Half the Person That I Used to Be and Will Never, Ever Go Back

I started the ketogenic diet using ruled.me because of the wonderful help I received. Craig gave us detailed info on why it works and how to do change our habits and recipes step-by-step. I followed the diet exactly and started to lose about 4 pounds a week. I hit a plateau at 20 pounds, and emailed Craig. He was very kind to answer my email himself with specific advice. I started losing a little slower this time, but consistently until I reached a loss of 40 pounds. I am half the person ...

Keto Chicken Caprese Casserole

Keto Chicken Caprese Casserole

I haven't had many caprese salads this year yet, so I thought how could I get in my love for caprese at dinnertime? I immediately thought caprese casserole! That is where this chicken caprese casserole comes in to play. Add all the caprese favorites: cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, greens, and vinegar. But add in chicken and more of a creamy texture to hold the casserole together. The leafy greens that are tossed in oil and vinegar really bring out the creaminess of the caprese ...

Keto Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza

Keto Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza

My girlfriend has been begging me to make a keto copycat of her favorite pizza: the Thai Chicken Pizza from California Pizza Kitchen. Though I've never had it before, I love experimenting with Thai style flavors, and thought this would be a really great treat to have! Of course, I'm using the same pizza base as the pepperoni pizza many of you have tried on the site - though we make it a little bit flatter and opt to go for the flatbread shape. All said and done, it was a magnificent keto ...

Instant Pot Ribs with White Barbecue Sauce

Instant Pot Ribs with White Barbecue Sauce

Baby back ribs are a barbecue staple. There are many ways to prepare them, but the general rule is to cook them low and slow to achieve tender, fall-off-the bone meat that’s full of flavor. And unless you own an outdoor smoker, that usually means cooking ribs for several hours in the oven on low heat. But who wants to heat up the oven for hours at a time when it’s 100 degrees outside? I turned to my Instant Pot to create a rib recipe that turns out tender, flavorful, ribs in a fraction of ...

5 Minute Keto Pesto

5 Minute Keto Pesto

Typically pesto is a very simple recipe of basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and olive oil. Over the years people have added more and more ingredients to this classic recipe in order to adapt to tastes and preferences.  My personal addition is the tomato paste. I felt like the original version of this recipe was slightly bitter with the basil and pine nuts competing for top flavor.  A touch of tomato paste adds some acidity, sweetness, and cuts back on the bitterness. On keto, ...

Motivation: Move Toward Your Goals

Motivation: Move Toward Your Goals

We've all been to the point of not wanting to get up to go to the gym, continue a diet, or do something positive.

We're all guilty of thinking in the negative, not wanting things. Everything is fine and normal, but there is no action in not wanting something.
