Vegetarian Taco Stuffed Avocados

Vegetarian Taco Stuffed Avocados

Vegetarian tacos often mean substituting ground beef, or chicken, for loads of highly processed vegetarian “meat” items which can also be very expensive. Other alternatives for vegetarians might include heaping scoops of beans or rice which are also not part of the ketogenic way of life. My solution? An old school vegetarian meat substitute that can be seasoned to impersonate multiple different recipes: walnut meat! It may sound strange at first, but raw walnuts have a unique texture that ...

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 ...

Crispy Keto Cauliflower Cakes

Crispy Keto Cauliflower Cakes

Finding the right kinds of side dishes on a ketogenic diet can be difficult. You usually end up defaulting to some salad soaked in dressing or vegetables sauteed in oil and butter. But, sometimes we just want a change that seems impossible to do if we need that extra boost of fat to stick on the plate. Sometimes a few leaves of greens just won't cut it, and we want something hearty, full of fats, and delicious to boot. There are days I find myself going overboard for a few hours, stalking ...

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.

How Much Fat Should You Eat on a Ketogenic Diet?

Fat is a key component of the ketogenic diet. In fact, how much fat on keto in your diet will determine whether you achieve your goals or struggle to get the scale moving.

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 ...
