Hot Buttered Rum is a festive and rich drink that’s warmly spiced and sweetly aromatic with a beautiful foam top. Last year around Christmas, a friend came to visit me in Orlando. We went to Disney (because it’s Orlando and that’s where we take tourists, lol). At Magic Kingdom, we went on one of my long-time favorite rides, Pirates of the Caribbean. There’s a part in the ride where there’s a rum-type of smell, but to me it smells like buttered rum! (Anyone else remember that yummy Lifesavers flavor? My grandma always used to keep a roll of them in her purse.) Anyway, that aroma […]...
Gingerbread Caramel Candy (Homemade Chewy Caramel Recipe No Corn Syrup)
Gingerbread Caramel Candy is a fun festive spin on soft and chewy caramel candy. If you’re looking for homemade soft and chewy caramel recipe with no corn syrup, this is the recipe for you and it’s easier to make than you might think! I have a family member who is absolutely crazy about my homemade soft and chewy caramels (I won’t mention names to protect the innocent, but she’s a certain 15-year-old sugar fiend, lol), which I usually only make during the holidays as a special treat. This year I decided to spice things up with Gingerbread Caramel Candy! This aromatic soft and chewy caramel […]...

Low Carb Cheesy Turkey Meatballs with Rosemary Cream Sauce
This recipe for Low Carb Cheesy Turkey Meatballs with Rosemary Cream Sauce is basically a meatball gratin. Aromatic with garlic and rosemary, these cheesy turkey meatballs are smothered in a cream sauce, topped with cheese, and baked. I always seem to have a pack of ground turkey tucked away in my freezer. It’s delicious and very versatile, but for some reason, ground turkey is something that’s not frequently on my radar to make! I think these Low Carb Cheesy Turkey Meatballs with Rosemary Cream Sauce will change that....

Healthy Snickers Protein Bars (Low Carb)
My low carb Healthy Snickers Protein Bars feature a protein-rich nougat layer topped with homemade keto caramel (don’t worry, it’s easy to make!) and peanuts, and are coated in rich, dark chocolate. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who hasn’t tried a Snickers candy bar. Further, I can’t remember anyone telling me that they didn’t like Snickers! It’s a great combination of flavors and textures, which is why it was a top choice for me when I was trying to decide what kind of homemade protein bar I wanted to make....
Low Carb Savory Galette Recipe with Mushrooms, Manchego, and Thyme
This Low Carb Savory Galette Recipe with Mushrooms, Manchego, and Thyme makes a beautiful autumnal appetizer or addition to brunch. So many people tell me that the thing they miss most after going keto or changing over to a low carb way of eating is BREAD! I can definitely relate. There’s something incredibly comforting about a slice of toast slathered in butter, a cream-filled donut, a wedge of chocolate cake, or a flaky-crusted chicken pot pie. But the good news is that so many of these recipes are fairly easy to remake into a low carb version that will actually nourish you and won’t lead […]...
10+ Holiday Cookies (Perfect for a Cookie Exchange or Festive Baking!)
This collection of Holiday Cookies That Are Perfect for a Cookie Exchange will make sure you put together a gorgeous cookie tray! I need to ask, does anyone actually partake in a cookie exchange anymore? I absolutely love the idea, first because it’s a great way to try a whole bunch of new (or new to you) cookies. But also, cookie exchanges remind me of when I was a kid; my mom loved them! The nostalgia surrounding this idea is like the nostalgia surrounding the holiday season itself; it’s what makes it special. But even if you aren’t going to a cookie exchange, these holiday […]...
Low Carb Indian Chicken Korma with Rotisserie Chicken (or Leftover Turkey)
With this Low Carb Indian Chicken Korma with Rotisserie Chicken (or Leftover Turkey) you’ll be surprised that you can serve up such a flavorful curry on a weeknight! The first Indian dish I tried was Chicken Tikka Masala. That and Butter Chicken are everyone’s favorites, right? Of course I instantly fell in love. For at least the next 10 times that I went to Indian restaurants I would order one of those two dishes, but after a while I finally got adventurous enough to branch out. I discovered that there’s so much more to enjoy!...
Butternut Squash Puree with Fontina Cheese, Fresh Thyme, and Brown Butter
Butternut Squash Puree with Fontina Cheese, Fresh Thyme, and Brown Butter makes a delicious side dish for Thanksgiving dinner or any holiday meal or family gathering. Growing up, mashed squash was the one veggie I tried to politely pass on at every meal it made an appearance at. And I say “tried” to pass on because my mom usually wasn’t having it; she was always a little too quick to scoop me that I thought was quite a sizeable “no thank you helping”....
