French Onion Zoodle Bake

I love French Onion Soup, it’s my all time favorite. I do order it in restaurants, usually without the bread, but I never really know what’s in it...This isn’t a soup, but it has all the flavor of a good french onion soup though. I think I might play with it and see if I...

Beer Bread

I always liked beer bread pre-keto, I didn't think I would ever be making it again....surprise, surprise. There are lots of low carb beers out there, but there is only 1/2 a cup in beer so the carbs will be low anyway, so I just used my husbands local craft beer. I have a new...

Side Dish Ideas

Not all side dishes require recipes, but since keto takes away some of the basic side dish options, I though a list of ideas would be helpful. Vegetables - Fresh, frozen or canned.... Fresh vegetable plate with dipSeasonal vegetables – grilled or roasted. Bok choy, zucchini, onions, cabbageGreen beans – Plain or add some butter...

Zucchini Fritters

These are super simple and very tasty, I could see making them a little thicker and using them for burger buns or adding some smoked salmon and making salmon patties out of this. They are good with a cool creamy sour cream sriracha dip. Zucchini Fritters Ingredients: 2 cups grated zucchini (one medium sized zucchini)...

Universal cream sauce

Adding a cream sauce to your meat and/or veggies is a great way to get some fats and it changes things up to keep them tasting great. Like a fat bomb that just makes a meal better. Gravies, cheese sauces, wine sauce...anything you want. Universal cream sauce Ingredients: 2 Tbsp Butter (add more if you...

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:...

Eating out – It can be done!!

Eating out does not have to be hard, once you know what you can eat and what to look out for, it’s easy. There is the obvious – Avoid bread, rice, potatoes and desserts. This included breaded/fried foods. Unless you have carb’ers with you…ask the server to not bring the bread. There is the not-so-obvious...
