Strawberry Swirl Ice Cream

Strawberry Swirl Ice Cream

With all of the ice cream recipes that have been getting love lately, there's been a rising amount of people that want to make ice cream without a machine. Keto and ice cream go great together - you get a creamy, full bodied flavor with tons of fat and a fraction of the carbs. Tasteaholics have written this guest post, and I was thrilled when they told me about this. A keto ice cream recipe - that needs no machine. Without further ado, here's Vicky and Rami: "Before we began our keto ...

Keto Delivered August 2015 Unboxing

Keto Delivered August 2015 Unboxing

As many of you know, I started Keto Delivered, a subscription box, a few months back. I launched this service because I wanted to showcase how people can make keto fun.

Keto Delivered aims to put the spotlight on small companies around the USA that are bringing out high quality keto friendly products that make keto cooking fun again! The first box has ...

Nacho Chicken Casserole

Nacho Chicken Casserole

Keto and casseroles seem to go hand in hand when you think about the type of high-fat foods that are being included. All of the cheeses you're able to use create an ooey, gooey texture that everyone can enjoy. Whether you're a working mom, a college student, or you just want an easy meal - this casserole will get the job done! This is my Southwestern-esque take on Shepherd's Pie. It's got a great heat coming through from the chili seasoning, a good balance of acidity and sweetness from the ...

Easy Keto Strawberry Shortcakes

Easy Keto Strawberry Shortcakes

Summer is such a treat on keto as the berries are in season and there's so many things to make with them! The weather this year has made the harvests bountiful and they've been popping up at just about every farmers market we've been to. Since summer's coming to a close, we thought that picking up some strawberries would be a great idea before they're out of season! The keto cloud bread does perfect with this easy shortcake recipe. Instead of using the traditional biscuit or croissant ...

Keto Kung Pao Chicken

Keto Kung Pao Chicken

If you all didn't know by now, Asian food is in one of my favorite categories of food. Prior to keto, grabbing take-out was the time of the week I looked forward to the most. From Sweet and Sour Chicken to Grilled Short Ribs, I've tried to recreate as many favorites as I can into keto friendly recipes that everyone can enjoy. Kung Pao Chicken is traditionally a spicy stir fry made with chicken, peanuts, vegetables, and chili peppers. It normally calls for Sichuan peppercorns, but since they ...

Fire and Ice Pickles

Sweet, sour, spicy, and absolutely addicting. These pickles combine multiple layers of flavor into a simplistic pickle that you can add to almost any dish. Grill up a burger, some hotdogs, or just have them with a salad - adding these flavor packed pickles will surely brighten any dish. On a ketogenic diet, a little bit of crunch is never a bad thing, either. These little guys will not only add flavor, but they will add a great texture to almost anything you put them with. The sweetness ...

Keto Coconut Curry Chicken Tenders

Keto Coconut Curry Chicken Tenders

If you've ever been a fan of coconut shrimp, this recipe's for you! The classic coconut shrimp gets a twist with chicken and a deep curry flavor that runs throughout. To match alongside it, we pair pork rinds with the chicken to bring the flavors out and allow for a crispy chicken tender. Never thought you'd have crunchy on keto? Think again. To make the flavors of the chicken nuggets really sing, I decided that a dipping sauce was absolutely mandatory for this. A sweet and spicy mango ...

Breakfast Keto Pizza Waffles

Breakfast Keto Pizza Waffles

Pizza, for breakfast!? Yes, it's true! Sometimes on keto, I get cravings at weird times. Breakfast food for dinner, and dinner for breakfast. In this case, I was really craving a pizza in the morning. So, I thought it'd be a really nifty idea to use a waffle base as a pizza. It worked great - and it even makes it easy to pull apart each quarter and eat it like a slice of pizza. You can top the pizza waffle with anything you'd like to - scrambled eggs and bacon with some ranch as the ...

The Ketogenic Diet and Diabetes

The Ketogenic Diet and Diabetes

The ketogenic diet was originally developed almost 100 years ago to treat epilepsy. Nowadays, it is used as a nutrition plan by health-conscious men and women to optimize body composition and athletic performance. Recent research suggests that high fat, very-low carb diets have another benefit: They may help control glucose, triglycerides, insulin, and body weight in people with diabetes. The research below shows the ketogenic diet may be an effective tool you can use to manage symptoms of ...

Keto Breakfast Burger

Keto Breakfast Burger

When this was first made for me, I didn't believe that the peanut butter would add anything of value to this dish - in fact, I thought it would take away from the taste. Boy was I wrong. The peanut butter adds that sweet element that plays so great with all of the rich and savory notes of the dish. The pepperjack cheese adds just a small hint of spice after each bite - which is a perfect addition. This is a fantastic option for a brunch or a heavy breakfast if you're the type that skips ...
