Healthy Sweet and Sour Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

October 28, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Healthy Sweet and Sour Chicken Stir Fry Recipe in just 30 minutes with just 11g net carbs per serving! It has a sweet and sour savory garlic and ginger sauce and lots of veggies.

Some nights, take-out for dinner sounds really, really good.

But if you’re mindful of what you eat (because unless you’re getting a salad it’s hard to keep take-out healthy) or if you’re limiting excessive spending (because take-out can really add up), ordering out isn’t the best option.

And let’s not forget that once you give in and order take-out on a super busy night, it’s a lot easier to slip into the habit of ordering again later that week or the next week! It’s for this reason that I try to set myself up to avoid take-out, lol.…

Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup

October 21, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

For those of you who love cozying up to a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup, my Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup recipe will become a regular in your dinner rotation! It’s creamy and rich with savory cheesy flavor and the perfect amount of broccoli. The only thing that’s missing are the carbs! The other day I happened to use the phrase “back in the day” in front of my grandmother in reference to a bowl of chicken noodle soup I was thoroughly enjoying. It was hilarious. She said, with a huge sigh, that language has changed again, and I had no idea what “back in the […]...

Heart Healthy Soup Recipe

September 30, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Full of vegetables and lean ground beef, this savory Heart Healthy Soup recipe is something you can feel good about whipping up for your whole family. And even though it’s healthy, it’s not boring; aromatics like onion, garlic, and an herb blend give this soup great flavor! Last spring my dad gave us a huge scare when he was hospitalized for over 200 blood clots in his legs. Thank God he’s doing well now, but he’s on a doctor-monitored regimen of prescribed medication, exercise, and healthy eating....

Meatza with Italian Sausage, Bell Pepper, Onion, and Olives

September 23, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

There’s no reason pizza night has to be full of carbs, and if you want something different than cauliflower crust or fathead dough, I have you covered! This Meatza with Italian Sausage, Bell Pepper, Onion, and Olives shows that you can get a fully satisfying pizza experience without the crust. In this recipe, the meat IS the crust! It’s a little ironic that my favorite pizza toppings are literally just red sauce and cheese. Ok, and basil too. Or sometimes if I’m feeling really wild and crazy I’ll go for mushrooms (YUM). But meat on my pizza just usually isn’t my thing. Enter the Meatza, […]...

If you’ve seen Palak Paneer at Indian restaurants but haven’t tried it, now is the time to whip it up along with some keto naan. Spoiler Alert: It’s much easier than you think! Indian food and I get along just fine. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while or if you follow me on Instagram, you probably know how deep my love for Indian food runs. (As evidence, Indian Butter Chicken is my absolute favorite meal, and I even opt for Indian food in Paris.)...

Sous Vide Egg Bites with Bacon and Cheddar (Starbucks Copycat)

September 2, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

If you enjoy the sous vide egg bites at Starbucks, this Sous Vide Egg Bites with Bacon and Cheddar recipe is for you! Each egg bite has just 1g net carbs. And I make this recipe in an electric pressure cooker so it cooks up fast! I’m really not a fast food girl. And also, I’m not much of a fad food girl, either. But since Starbucks came out with their sous vide egg bites, they’ve been my go-to when I’m there getting work done for hours on end and need sustenance. A girl’s gotta eat, right?...

Full of fresh veggies and packed with different flavors and textures, this Chopped Kale Salad is perfect for meal prep! And it’ll have you excited to eat salad. With Labor Day and the unofficial end to summer right around the corner, I’ve kicked my fresh-veggies-from-the-farmers-market habit into high gear. This Chopped Kale Salad is basically a combination of whatever fresh produce you find at the market that looks good, all chopped up! With crisped beef bacon and cheese added for protein, along with sunflower seeds for crunch....

Dan Dan Noodles aka Dan Dan Mian (Paleo, Dairy Free, Keto)

August 19, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Dan Dan Noodles feature a complex and spicy, but balanced flavor profile, and my version is low carb without sacrificing taste! Dan Dan Noodles is a classic Sichuan street food dish, but I first had it at an Asian restaurant in Orlando. One bite and I was completely hooked on the flavor profile! It starts out subtly sweet, and then umami, and finally a fiery, spicy heat hits the back of your palate. After every single bite you’ll want to go back for another to repeat the tasting experience!...
