Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
This Low Carb Unstuffed Peppers Stir Fry skillet meal whips up in just 30 minutes with all the flavors of classic stuffed peppers – without the carbs!
When it comes to dinner, more often than not I’m torn between wanting a healthy homemade meal and needing something I can whip up quickly. Most of us can relate, right?…
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, […]...
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!...
This low-carb Cheeseburger Salad is every bit as satisfying as a carb-heavy burger on a bun! And once you make this healthy homemade Big Mac Sauce, you’ll realize you need it in your life. Summer isn’t summer if you don’t grill up burgers, right?! Next time you whip up a batch of hamburgers, be sure to throw a few extra on the grill to make this Cheeseburger Salad. They’re perfect for an easy weeknight meal of leftovers or for weekday lunches!...
Cast Iron Burgers are juicy and flavorful, and easy to make on your stovetop in a cast-iron skillet. For a lot of us, grilling is the preferred cooking method in summer. Grilling is quick and easy, and doesn’t require heating up the kitchen to get dinner on the table! And surprisingly, grilling is a very versatile cooking method. My dad has told me several times that he could cook a cake on a grill and I actually believe him, lol!...
This Low Carb Chili Garlic Steak Rice Bowl uses leftover steak and cauliflower rice for a quick and easy healthier take on a rice bowl! During warmer months, dinner on the grill is the norm. Whether its burgers, chicken, fish, or steak, throw it on the barbeque and just let it do its thing! I had extra steak in my fridge and instead of just serving it up as boring leftovers I completely reworked it into a Low Carb Chili Garlic Steak Rice Bowl!...
This Low Carb Noodle Free Lasagna Recipe features a homemade meat sauce and flavorful savory ricotta mixture, and is topped with a combination of mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses for the ultimate cheesy comfort food. First let’s talk about the elephant in the room; my Low Carb Noodle Free Lasagna Recipe is by no means a classic or authentic lasagna! However, it is jam-packed with flavor, and every bit as delicious as a regular lasagna. (I’ve had both keto and non-keto people ask for seconds, as well as ask for the recipe!) But really, this dish is more of a casserole than a lasagna. It consists […]...
Persian Okra Stew (Khoresh Bamieh) is a classic Iranian dish of meat stewed with tomatoes, okra, and spices. It’s delicious enough to convert even the most adamant okra haters! Growing up in Upstate New York I never tasted okra until I was a teenager (which could be partly because of geography and partly because of my mother’s huge dislike for it), until one summer when I visited my aunt in North Carolina. We went out for dinner and she ordered fried okra. I don’t remember my feelings on it exactly; I didn’t hate it, but it wasn’t something I would necessarily order myself. However, my love for okra and […]...
This Banh Mi Sandwich with Instant Pot Short Ribs and Quick Pickled Slaw is the perfect combination of tender meat and zesty fresh, flavorful slaw. It’s my take on a classic favorite! One of the best things about a sandwich (of course in addition to the fact that it’s portable and easy to make), is that you’re able to pack in a ton of flavors and textures. Here I paired braised beef short ribs with a sweet and spicy pickled slaw for the perfect balance....
