  • Pepperoni Chips – A Delicious Low-carb, Keto Snack For Movie Night

    Pepperoni Chips – A Delicious Low-carb, Keto Snack For Movie Night

    A New Cook Book I picked up a keto cookbook recently and found a recipe for pepperoni chips. This is inspired by that find. I made these on a Saturday afternoon so that I would have them for my late-night Twilight Zone binge on Hulu. I loved them after they were first cooked, but I…

  • FIRST RUN: Cauliflower Pizza Crust

    FIRST RUN: Cauliflower Pizza Crust

      The purpose of this post is not to share an incredible recipe for a cauliflower pizza crust but as a guide to start with to create your own. I will be perfecting this in the future so a more definitive recipe will come later.   Hot out of the oven.   A friend was…

  • Microwave Spaghetti Squash

    Microwave Spaghetti Squash

    This is a visual guide to making spaghetti squash in the microwave. Spaghetti squash can be used as a delicious replacement to spaghetti pasta and is a low-carb, gluten-free and keto-friendly ingredient! It has a mild taste and acts as as a great canvass to any flavors that are added to it. This recipe image…

  • Low-carb Munchies

    Low-carb Munchies

    Diced ham, cheese and almonds will tame the strongest snack cravings. I stayed true to my “avoid-carbs-if-possible-diet” and purchased what amounts to a protein snack Saturday night. Meat, cheese and nuts. The almonds were “smokehouse” flavored and the ham was processed which made this high in sodium but it still helped keep the carb count…

  • Low-carb Chips and Dip

    Low-carb Chips and Dip

    Two sliced cucumbers and your favorite dip! That’s all for this recipe! Ok. They’re not really potato chips. They’re sliced cucumbers. Once you dip them in this sauce though, the chip won’t matter! I went to a friend’s house for a dinner party a couple days ago and decided to take a tray of sliced…

  • The Double Turkey Burger Eggplant Stack!

    The Double Turkey Burger Eggplant Stack!

    This low-carb mountain consists of sliced eggplant and ground turkey patties  – grilled, stacked and drizzled with my favorite homemade sauce – which for me, in this case, is Sweet Pickle Ranch sauce. After preparing this breadless-manwhich I realized this could be a featured item at a low-carb Carl’s Jr. The only thing missing was…

  • Grilled Chicken Salad

    Grilled Chicken Salad

    I love leftover grilled chicken, the smoky grill flavor stays as long as it’s edible and provides an extra layer of flavor to whatever it’s used in. This recipe features chicken grilled over charcoal the night before as well as pickled banana peppers in a spread for sandwiches or wraps. I was in a hurry…

  • Fish Tacos (Tilapia)

    I inhaled six of these like a wale feeding on plankton. They were the small “street taco” size corn tortillas from Mission. Which helped them go down fast! Dinner on Friday is an event if I’m not going out on the town – and that is just what these are. There are three special elements…

  • Creamy Spaghetti Squash Bake

    This was a treat. I loved it — and it was an experiment! I will be refining this for sure, but it’s worthy of a post. I made this recipe low-carb by using spaghetti squash where I would have used regular spaghetti. The squash worked with the onion and red pepper to form a nice…

  • Get Rid of It Frittata

    The only thing in this dish not leftover or standing on the edge of spoiled are the eggs and chipotle ranch sauce made a couple days ago. I think the Gods of fresh food smiled on my effort to not waste anything because I really enjoyed this. The onion and red pepper are really the…
