Keto Recipes, Reviews, and Tips
In the quest for a dessert that was keto friendly enough to fit my macros while also being convincing enough to share with non-ketoers over the holidays, cheesecake seemed like an obvious option. Cream cheese and eggs, the main ingredients of most cheesecake fillings, are low carb as is, and swapping out the sugar for a keto friendly option like […]

I know it’s kind of blasphemy to say this at this time of year, but I have never been a big fan of pumpkin-flavored or pumpkin spiced foods. I can probably count my average yearly pumpkin spice latte consumption on one hand, and the number of times I’ve had pumpkin pie on the other. With that said…this week I was […]

It seems like every week there’s some new “superfood” or supplement that’s trending on social media, but collagen is one of those nutrients that actually has tried and true health benefits to back it up. It’s anti-inflammatory, is good for joint health, and also contributes to healthy skin, hair, and nails. Bone broth is a good source of it, but […]

You see, I love gummy bears. Like, really love them. The kind of love that lets […]

Few things in life go better together than chocolate and peanut butter, but obviously those familiar orange Reese’s wrappers in the candy aisle are totally off limits for keto. From time to time I had still been able to enjoy the chocolate/PB combination in other ways, like by peanut butter to my low carb brownies or simply spreading some on […]

Since being keto, I’ve found that protein powder can be a really interesting ingredient to work with in cooking and especially in low carb baking. It can do everything from adding extra protein (obviously) to creating a fluffier texture or more “rise” in a finished product. Usually I like to use a minimal whey powder for cooking to minimize the […]

If you haven’t had the chance to try my recipe for low carb chocolate chip brownies yet, then I feel a little bad for you. Not just because you’re missing out on some chocolatey deliciousness, but also because you now have a pretty difficult choice to make: make the brownies and enjoy them as is, or use the batter to […]

So maybe you just read the title of this post, or you’ve seen a picture of these babies on my Instagram, and you’re thinking, “Hey, I like chocolate. I’ll try these out.” Well, I feel like I need to be upfront about something before I share this recipe. These aren’t your ordinary, average chocolate brownie. These aren’t even your standard chocolate […]
