Spaghetti (Meat) Sauce

I love spaghetti and am perfectly happy to use zoodles as my pasta replacement, but I needed a sauce. Here is what I have come up with. You could leave out the beef broth, but I found it cuts the carbs from the tomatoes and creates a rich flavor without diluting the traditional taste. This...

Pizza Options

Pizza can be a simple family dinner or something pretty special. We don't have to miss out on it because we're keto. The best part is you can make each person their own pizza or they can make their own with the toppings they love. Almost anything can be made into a pizza, your favorite...

Holidays – Keto Style

Turkey is easy, just avoid sugar in any rubs or brines you choose to use. I, for one plan on making extra for leftovers. Ham can be slightly more carb heavy, but watch your ingredients and avoid honey or brown sugar, though if you add your own sweeteners at home, that's fine Prime rib or...

Lunches – Hot & Cold

Lunches seem to be difficult for people on the go. Some people don't have a way to heat things up, or they need to eat in the car, Some need fast food or have business lunches. A little meal prep on the weekends can make the work days easier. There really are so many options,...

Keto Camping

This topic has been coming up a lot, so here we go. There are lots of ways to camp…tent, RV, cabin, with a “kitchen” of some sort, over an open fire, or some combination in between. I am a big supporter of pre-making foods or making mixes in baggies, jars or tupperware to go. Measure...

Chalupa (Taco) Shell or Fry Bread

Finding a good tortilla or taco shell on keto has been hard. I have made a bunch and they either don't taste good, or they are so fragile they can't hold my taco fillings. I use low carb tortilla on occasion, but would rather avoid the wheat where I can. These were easy, tasty and...

Tomato Soup

I love tomato soup, especially over noodles. I had to come up with a keto friendly version. Tomatoes are high carbs and full of sugar, so cutting it with the chicken broth lessens the carbs per ounce and still allows the rich flavors to come through. This recipe is pure comfort food. Tomato Soup Ingredients:...

Meatless Meals

Sometimes if you are over your proteins for the day you need a good filling dinner with not a lot of protein. Sometimes you just don't want meat, and for some people meatless is a way of life. I have not tried all of these, but they look amazing. It's easier to share this way,...
