March 9, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Love beer and brats? Love cheese? Love (or at least don’t mind) broccoli? Then this keto-friendly beer, brats and cheese broccoli soup could be your new go-to recipe.  This soup contains lots of protein from the German sausage and the two kinds of cheese you’ll add.

Instant Pot Deviled Egg Salad

I love egg salad, but I don't make it nearly as often as I desire. There's just so much time involved in hard boiling, then peeling all of the eggs needed. You probably know we've already got some pretty good recipes for egg salad as well, so if I was going to post another one it would have to be pretty spectacular. Enter the Instant Pot deviled egg salad. This recipe will show you how to quickly hard boil a ton of eggs in your Instant Pot, then chop it all up. No peeling necessary! It ...

Crispy Skin Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder

Crispy Skin Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder

On keto, I'm always looking for different ways to get fatty meats into my diet that will taste great and keep my wallet (and stomach) full. Yesterday, I picked up this 8 pound roast for just under $16. Yep, that's under $2 a pound - and it'll feed an entire family for a few days! Pulled pork is just plain delicious - and if you think we have to slather or smoke this baby just to coax some flavor out of it - you could never have been so wrong. Double check on what type of pork shoulder you are ...

There has much been much debate on low carb diets vs keto diets and the differences between the two diets. Low carb diets have been rising in popularity with no signs of dropping off. This is not surprising when you consider the success of thousands and thousands of low carb dieters who have rapidly lost weight and kept it off while improving their overall health at the same time. Even the current literature supports the effectiveness of low carb diets for weight loss and health ...

Custard is a new favorite of mine, and I can’t believe how EASY it is to make! There are different ways to make it too. Adding whole eggs to a custard base will make it hold its form… If you just use egg yolks, it will have the consistency of pudding, which is excellent for a creme brulee. Today, I will be making a flan, a popular Mexican dessert, which will have a firm and robust custard that will hold its shape outside a ramekin. We will also be creating a caramel sauce with it that ...

I had just converted my mother to a ketogenic diet, and her birthday was coming up soon. I was scraping at the air trying to find something that was low carb, delicious, and would rifle her cravings away for any type of real cake. I remember a few years back, I had made soy bean brownies...right then and there I knew I had to make a cake from them. Luckily my local supermarket sells organic soy beans, so I headed over there and picked some up. I went online to search for some recipes, but low ...

When it comes to making and cooking breakfast on a ketogenic diet, we often think of many different recipes including bacon and eggs, egg frittata, ketoproof coffee, or just straight up fasting. We need a bit more variety, and while I have tried to give some, we still need more! Now, I know the pictures aren't amazing, but the pictures just don't do them justice. These little keto muffins are packed full of deliciousness - sausage, maple syrup, and a sweet pancake-ish fluffy muffin to encase all ...

Since I made the cheese chips recipe a while ago, I figured it was time to revisit them. This time, I wanted to use the cheese crisps as both a textural addition as well as a vessel for the food to sit on. This not only offers a deliciously crisp contrast in texture, but it also adds extreme portability to your breakfast, which is a big plus in my book! Make sure when you take your bacon out of the pan, you try to keep as much bacon fat in the pan as possible. This will allow you to cook ...

Instant Pot Matcha Cheesecake

January 30, 2018 by 4 Comments

This Instant Pot matcha cheesecake is for those of you who want to eat cheesecake, but don't want to fuss with the process of making it. It's best if you make this the day ahead, but I'm not going to lie - I've eaten this warm, almost directly out of the pressure cooker and it was still great. This cheesecake is dense but creamy, packed with grassy matcha flavor but lightened up with sweetened sour cream and a drizzle of maple flavored syrup. I know the syrup sounds weird, but you have to ...
