Instead, I used liquid aminos. You can find it in your local grocery store, usually in the health foods section or it can be easily bought online. I find the taste is incredibly like regular soy sauce and I use it quite often in my cooking. You could also use coconut aminos. If you are ...

Creamy Shrimp Salad
April 4, 2019 by Leave a Comment
A quick and easy shrimp salad that’s perfect for warmer weather. The dill adds a refreshing taste and the crunchy texture of the lettuce works well with the mayonnaise dressing. This delicious salad is stuffed with both fat and protein while having just a few carbs per serving. In this salad, I used Boston lettuce (also known as butterhead or bibb), but romaine would work as well! I would avoid lettuce like iceberg, just because it may be too difficult to eat.

Thousand Island Dressing
December 6, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Of all of the ketogenic salad dressings I make, this has to be our favorite. I mean, they all taste like our favorite when we're eating them, but if I had to choose one it would be this one. It has that depth the homemade mayonnaise and ketchup gives it, that subtle sweetness from the stevia, that tiny crunch of pickle and onion, and somewhere in the background a hint of tartness from the apple cider vinegar that all combines to put it over the top. I really hope you'll give this dressing a ...
