We previously looked at research suggesting that a well-planned, low-carb diet coupled with exercise can help you lower blood sugar, triglycerides, and body weight and also improve HDL cholesterol and insulin sensitivity. But what impact does ketogenic diet have on blood pressure? Recent research suggests that maintaining an optimal blood pressure is even more critical for your heart and overall health than previously thought.

Bacon Roasted Chicken with Pan Gravy
September 8, 2014 by 6 Comments
Nothing says cooler weather than a roasted chicken. Since we're on a keto diet, we get to wrap this guy in bacon, too! It's slightly zesty and full of citrus flavor which gives a fantastic balance to the rich and hearty gravy we make with the pan drippings. If you need a way to get some extra fats in on the side, I'd highly recommend the Keto Brussels Sprouts Au Gratin that I posted yesterday. They're great and would pair well with this dish. You normally see bacon wrapped around birds ...

Cajun Salmon Cakes
June 7, 2018 by 1 Comment
Some days dinner seems like a daunting task, with busy schedules and not much time to cook or plan meals in advance. This recipe for Cajun Salmon Cakes is a regular in our rotation for those busy nights when we haven’t really thought ahead about what to make. They come together quickly using ingredients that are staples in most keto pantries. I like to use spicy pork rinds to enhance the Cajun flavor of these cakes, but if you don’t like things too spicy then regular pork rinds work just ...

Layered Fried Queso Blanco
August 20, 2014 by 8 Comments
I have a confession to make: I got mad at cheese today. Mad to the point where I just smooshed it into a pan while it was frying - but something absolutely amazing came out of it! I don't know why it took me so long to think of this. Whenever I fry up cheese, I watch it closely - and it always starts to melt, little by little at the bottom. Distressing myself and knowing that it's going to flatten out, I haven't done anything about it...until now! Those crispy layers on the outside, the gooey ...

Pesto Keto Crackers
December 8, 2016 by 11 Comments
These Pesto Keto Crackers combine a buttery crisp texture with the Italian taste that everyone loves. The flavor is a delightful combination of garlic, basil, and black pepper with just a hint of cayenne to waken up the taste buds. Enjoy these crackers by themselves, float them in soup, spread them with olive tapenade, or substitute them as croutons in a salad. You can even crush them up and use them in place of cracker crumbs for a yummy Italian style breading for meat or fish. Of course, they ...

Miso Salmon
January 9, 2018 by 1 Comment
This miso salmon is a light and flavorful way to add more seafood and healthy fats into your diet! The salmon fillets are marinated in sake, white wine, and miso for two days before cooking. This saturates the fish with a wonderful flavor. You can leave the skin on, or remove the skin too. It's really up to you, but crispy salmon skin can be a wonderful treat. This recipe goes great with a side salad, or you can make some seafood tacos using our keto tortillas. I made some zoodles and ...

Jared Baldo Lost 58 Lbs
January 7, 2017 by 1 Comment
Nine months ago, I was feeling pretty down. Couldn't keep up with the kids, the wife, the housework, anything. I was a heavy smoker for almost 20 years. So I finally decided to quit in late January 2015. But I didn't stop eating. Got up to 321 lbs...not good. Then had some changes in our life. Needed to feel better about myself. So a friend told me about the keto diet and Ruled.me. He had lost 67 lbs in 12 weeks. And it seemed so easy, for the most part. So I had one last stuffing breakfast ...

Broccoli Chicken Zucchini Boats
April 12, 2016 by 19 Comments
We've all seen keto stuffed peppers and stuffed jalapenos (of course, making one of my favorites - jalapeño poppers). Now it's time for a stuffed zucchini! The texture of the zucchini after being roasted will still have a nice bite that stands up to the cheesy gooey filling inside. It's a perfect lunch for you to have when you want something a little out of the ordinary. The filling on the inside is just perfect and really comes together with all of the flavors. It's almost a chicken ...
