The first time I ever tried Brussels Sprouts, they were just plain and steamed. Let’s say, I was not a fan. Steamed and un-doctored Brussels taste, to me, like something out of a dumpster. The best description I can think of is a cross between rotten broccoli and moldy cabbage. And then I learned how […]
Savory Cheddar Muffins
A little trick I’ve learned when it comes to keto baking is that protein powders can provide some structure that nut flours can’t provide on their own. The problem with that, is many people don’t tolerate protein powders well. Whey tends to be pretty insulinogenic, meaning your insulin response might be a lot higher than […]
Cranberry Fluff
My dad’s side of the family has always made this stuff called Jello Salad. It’s basically Jello that you mix with Cool Whip, usually some cottage cheese or sour cream, fruit or nut/coconut pieces mixed in, and marshmallows. There were always marshmallows. I grew up eating that sugary mess and, while I will freely admit […]
Rich and Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Prior to her ignominious fall from grace, I was a pretty big fan of Paula Deen. In fact, it was watching her cook on the Food Network that drew me into the world of self-education in the culinary arts. Here was this woman who was famous and beloved for her food, and she didn’t have […]
Marmie’s Pumpkin Pudding
My mom makes an awesome pumpkin pie. It’s my favorite, in fact. Mama, also known by my children as Marmie, came up with her pie recipe after having Thanksgiving one year with my aunt’s in-laws in Pennsylvania. She has always said it was the best pumpkin pie she’d ever had. Their family recipe was a […]
Cheesy Green Bean Casserole
One of our favorite holiday dishes is green bean casserole. My daughter asks for it pretty much every time a special feast day rolls around. It’s kind of an old standard in most homes, but unfortunately the recipe traditionally includes some very unfriendly ingredients, like cream of mushroom soup and French-fried onions. Those are, quite […]
On Macros
I wanted to pop in to make a brief(ish) statement on recipe macros: namely, why I include them, and what it all means. Most people are used to seeing macros and a suggested number of servings listed for each recipe across the ketosphere, and thus including them is pretty much in-line with what others do. […]
How to Sous Vide Cook Your Perfect Steak
If you are a member of the Facebook group, you might have gathered that sous vide is my absolute favorite way to cook my meat, and most especially steaks. I used to hate steak with the fiery heat of a thousand suns, but my meat eating life was changed once I finally tried this method. […]
Measuring Your Ingredients: Volume versus Weight
It’s happened to many of us: You find an awesome keto recipe you want to try, you print it out, gather up all the ingredients, start looking at the instructions, and…. wait, what?! What the heck is this grams nonsense? What are they even asking for? Ah, yes. You’ve entered the dreaded Metric Zone. You […]
