Everyone loves milkshakes! And, St’ Patrick’s Day is the realm of the Shamrock shake. If you love mint and ice cream then this is something you might look forward to year after year. Unfortunately, like all milkshakes, Shamrock shakes are hardly keto. When we choose to follow a healthier way of eating we sometimes leave behind treats we love. Thankfully I have found Keto to be one of the most versatile when it comes to reworking old treats into newer healthier versions. These keto shamrock shakes are no exception! They are not only delicious but super simple to make! Keto Shamrock Shake, St Patrick’s DayRead More →

keto Philly Cheesesteak

Before we started following a keto lifestyle and way of eating our family was a big fan of sandwiches. A lot of families are – and with good reason! Sandwiches are easy and cheap to make, highly customizable so even your pickiest kid is happy and there are perfect options for just about every season! Of course, once we ditched the bread sandwiches became a little harder. There are low carb wraps of course, like the ones we use in our keto grilled cheese and mixes like Carbquick can be useful when you want to make a quick hamburger bun. But, when you want somethingRead More →

keto raspberry balsamic beef

I’m always trying to find new keto dinner options for the family and with Valentine’s day coming up I was racking my brain for something extra special! Raspberry and balsamic is a great combination and when paired with stew beef in a Crockpot makes for a tender and flavorful meal that everyone will enjoy. We served our beef over cauliflower rice with a side of asparagus but I expect that any vegetable sides would be delicious. I also made a Keto Creme Brulee for dessert! Yum!

Keto White Chocolate flavored Cheesecake

Cheesecakes are probably the easiest ‘cakes’ to convert to keto. Cheesecakes have single-handedly kept me in line during my early days of keto when my sweet tooth still ran roughshod over my willpower. Not only are cheesecakes easy to convert to keto but they are delicious, adaptable and fairly easy to make. This keto white chocolate cheesecake doesn’t even require a lot of hard to find ingredients! As long as you can get your hands on a suitable sweetener and some almond flour then your golden!

I love making dessert pizzas! With a little bit of thought, I’m pretty sure that you can come up with a suitable combination to make any family happy! Of course for my family, the perfect combination almost always involves strawberries so it’s really no surprise that this recipe contains them even though I swore to start more fall recipes. What can I say? When I find strawberries on sale – I buy them regardless of the season! This recipe is relatively simple and very customizable! Simply change the berry & flavors of choice to fit your needs and enjoy it! Keto Dessert Pizza, Simple andRead More →

Grilled cheese is the ultimate comfort food. It likely stems back to lunches as a child. I loved them back then because they were one of the items I could help make and who doesn’t love a gooey cheese sandwich? I love them now for some entirely different reasons, though rest assured that taste is still one of the top ones! These keto grilled cheese sandwiches are just as delicious as the ones I had as a child but just as cheap and simple to make! Since I use low carb tortillas these are probably more suited to those following a more dirty style ofRead More →

Cookies are an age-old treat that pretty much everyone loves! That doesn’t change just because you start eating healthier and following a Keto way of eating! In fact, missing cookies and other sweet treats are probably one of the top reasons that people have a hard time sticking with new ways of eating. There is no doubt that Keto can be hard at first, especially if you are following a stricter version of the diet. Having keto-friendly treats on hand, like these keto maple cookies, can make a wonderful difference! These cookies are very simple to make with a delicious fall flavor that everyone isRead More →

keto pumpkin cheesecake

Cheesecake is one of those desserts that are very easy to convert to keto, which is great because my family loves some cheesecake! It seemed only natural that we attempt to make a Keto pumpkin cheesecake for the fall season. Of course, we weren’t expecting to make it a slow cooker cheesecake but when your oven decides to go on the fritz what else is a baker to do?!? Of course, this cheesecake can be made in an oven too! Just use a springform pan and cook it for at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes instead! Slow Cooker Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake this post may containRead More →

Keto mini caramel apple crumbles

The weather is finally starting to cool off around here and I can’t say I’m disappointed about that at all! Not only does this mean the end of our scorching summer temperatures but it’s also time to start breaking out the fall flavors! One of my favorite fall flavors is anything apple-related. Unfortunately, apples are pretty far from being keto-friendly! Thankfully there are ways to substitute almost everything in Keto and apples are no exception. These keto mini caramel apple crumbles are actually created using a type of squash. Yes, that right – squash! The chayote squash to be exact. Sounds strange I know, butRead More →
