Keto Recipes, Reviews, and Tips
Like many varieties of nuts, almonds are low in effective carbs but high in protein and healthy fats, making them a great keto snack. Despite this, plain almonds aren’t necessarily the most exciting thing to eat…and while roasted almonds with savory flavors are relatively easy to find, finding options for sugar free or keto candied almonds or other sweeter varieties in […]

From hot chai lattes in the winter to iced chai tea in the spring and summer, I am a big fan of the warming chai spice blend in drinks and recipes. Finding chai tea bags is easy enough, but if you want to use chai in other ways like in coffee or low carb desserts, it can be a little […]

You never quite realize just how many hidden carbs and sugars are in dips, dressings, and sauces until keto makes you take a closer look at those nutrition labels. For me, one of the biggest shocks was the whopping 5 grams of carbs (mostly sugar) found in a single tablespoon of most ketchup brands…which is why I was thrilled to […]

Spinach has always been one of my favorite veggies, thanks in no small part to how versatile it is. It’s great on its own either raw or cooked, but also is a great way to add some vitamins and minerals to any number of other dishes. I’ll be honest though…there’s almost no food that can’t be improved with the addition of cheese […]

There’s nothing quite like a warm bowl of soup on a cold winter day, but somehow I only just realized that you could make a warming winter soup with something other than winter veggies. Don’t get me wrong; cauliflower, squash, and pumpkin soups still have their place. But the rich, creamy texture of this avocado keto soup is extra satisfying […]
