One of my favorite spices is rosemary, and I love to add it to everything I can. Unfortunately, though, not many people I cook for enjoy it like I do. So, I decided to try to make it more palatable for the others around my house and give it a bit of a twist. This recipe will add a needed change in some of your repertoires, bring a beautiful citrus flavor with the almost pungent aroma of the rosemary and thyme. Using a mortar and pestle for the garlic aliolli is the best way to do it. A ...

Keto Bites: General Tso’s Chicken

One of my all-time favorites. My go-to when I used to order from the Chinese take away. One of the reasons I got fat in the first place. General Tso's Chicken. The sweet, spicy, savory mixture of sticky sauce slathering that chicken is something I never wanted to forget. This goes great with Cauliflower Fried Rice! I've been experimenting with the sauce since I made the sweet and sour chicken, and I've hit the nail on the head! This is one recipe that those of us on a ketogenic diet ...

I loved my old King Ranch Chicken recipe and have been trying to convert it to keto ever since I've been on this way of eating.

Remember those Cheddar and Bacon BBQ Meatballs that I made the other day? Well, I had leftover pork rinds from crushing them up - so I decided that I would make some fried chicken with it. Surprisingly (well, I had my suspicions anyway) it turned out really awesome! It's a great breading for fried chicken, it holds together and sticks, and tastes fantastic. My one quip about this, is to make sure that you don't use a food processor to crush up the pork rinds. I used a rolling pin to ...

So I've had these chicken thighs sitting around for a while, and I couldn't decide what to do with them. I didn't want to only grill them, so I decided to get the crock pot out and make some sort of stew. The end results were surprisingly good! Although it might look like a stringy mess, it tastes absolutely delicious. The peppers cooked down so they are virtually nonexistent, but the mushrooms give a nice texture change. I've found that it ends up tasting even better after it's been ...

I've always been a lover of curry, but this one really had me excited about trying something new. I rarely experiment with new flavors anymore, but this was the first time I was trying paneer. It is fantastic! If I had to describe paneer, I'd say it's very creamy and rich, and really added a good texture to the curry. If you have the wiggle room, you can add an onion to this - I have done it before and it adds a nice sweet note to it, along with a texture boost. Photos courtesy ...
