It all started November 2014 with boimetrics testing for our health insurance. After getting my results, I just wanted to cry. I want to be healthy for myself and my kids.

Eggs and bacon is the poster child of keto breakfast, but it can get boring after a while. This is when you know it’s the perfect time to treat yourself to keto-friendly eggs benedict.

You'll have gooey egg yolk, rich Canadian bacon, and a crisp slice of 'bread' to soak up all the goodness. Topped with a slightly acidic hollandaise - this is all it ...

With this recipe, we’ll show you how to make keto hummus without the chickpeas. Can ...

October 14, 2018 by 4 Comments

“Is this keto-friendly?” “Can I eat this on keto?” Questions like these are asked on keto diet forums and Facebook groups multiple times a day without a definitive answer. The line between what we should eat and avoid to sustain ketosis gets blurred after we cut out the obvious high-carb foods. To truly figure out what is keto-friendly and what we shouldn’t eat on keto, we must have: (1) a general understanding of foods that are keto-friendly and foods that will almost always kick us ...
