Keto Recipes, Reviews, and Tips
I like to keep a few batches of my keto cheese sticks ready to go in the freezer for whenever I have a craving for cheesy, salty, fried goodness, but sometimes I run out and am not in the mood to prep more from scratch. If I have halloumi on hand, though, it barely counts as an inconvenience. Halloumi fries […]

Whether I have cheese shell tacos, low carb tortillas, or simply lettuce wraps, taco Tuesdays (and, okay, sometimes Thursdays too…) are a pretty regular occurrence for me. Unfortunately, almost all of the major brands of taco seasoning are made with cornstarch, flour, maltodextrin, sugar, and/or other carb-based fillers. Now a couple grams of carbs here or there probably won’t ruin your […]

They say variety is the spice of life, and lately I’ve found that one of the best ways to spice up your usual meat and veggies is with a different sauce or seasoning. Aoilis, like this keto lemon aioli recipe, are a natural choice for keto meals, since they are high in good fats and flavor while having little to […]

Cauliflower has really grown on me since going keto, in part because of its low carb content but also because of how versatile it is.

This keto mayo recipe is something that came together out of necessity, but it turned out well enough that I’ve made it more than once. I never used much mayo pre-keto, so I’m not really in the habit of treating it as a pantry staple. When I needed some for a low carb recipe and discovered I was all out […]

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 […]

Part of the joy of keto is being able to get “back to basics” when it comes to food. Rather than relying on heavily processed and prepackaged products, most of the time we end up buying a lot more fresh foods than before. With that said, there are an increasing number of premade keto products coming to market lately, and […]

I get a lot of questions about what kinds of pizza and pasta sauces are keto-friendly, especially since sharing my keto cast iron pizza recipe a while back. The unfortunate truth is that many store-bought brands of sauce are off limits due to added sugars and fillers that raise the carb count. This is true for tomato-based sauces (although Rao’s […]
