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

September 23, 2019 by Faith 1 Comment

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, which is basically a meat-lovers dream pizza, and I love it!…

Palak Paneer Recipe (Indian Spinach Curry with Paneer Cheese)

September 10, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

YES, you can easily make restaurant-quality Indian food at home…and still eat keto! 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 1 Comment

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?...

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!...

Low Carb Honey Mustard Dressing

July 29, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Creamy with the perfect amount of tang, this Low Carb Honey Mustard Dressing tastes every bit as delicious as the regular stuff, but with much fewer carbs! A lot of people tell me they’d eat more salad if salad was more interesting. One of the easiest ways to jazz up salad is to add a flavorful dressing! Honey mustard isn’t just for dipping chicken fingers, friends....

Keto Crispy Baked Zucchini Slices

July 15, 2019 by Faith 3 Comments

This recipe for Keto Crispy Baked Zucchini Slices is my take on a favorite summer side dish my mom makes. My version hits all the right notes – crispy outside, tender inside, and full of flavor – but with much fewer carbs! When I was younger my mom had a small vegetable garden, and zucchini was always one of the vegetables that thrived best. If you grow zucchini you probably come to expect zucchini overload every summer! It’s always good to have a few new recipes up your sleeve to help use up the bounty....

BLT Salad

July 8, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

This BLT Salad packs all the traditional flavors of a classic BLT sandwich, but without the carbs. You won’t even miss the bread! What’s not to love about a fabulous bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich, right? Actually, the only thing I don’t like about it is the carbs. But that’s an easy fix; just make it in salad form instead!...

Cauliflower Potato Salad

June 24, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

Cauliflower Potato Salad (aka mock potato salad) has a mayo-based dressing with a touch of Dijon, dill, and a few spices. It’s every bit as delicious as regular potato salad, but with a fraction of the carbs! The magical property of cauliflower is that you can transform it into almost anything else. Cauliflower lends itself well to low carb simulations of pizza crust, bread sticks, rice, mashed potato, macaroni and cheese, and yes, even potato salad! I know what you’re thinking, and I was skeptical too, but let me explain....

Parmesan Peppercorn Dressing

June 3, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Parmesan Peppercorn Dressing is a beautiful blend of savory Parmesan flavor, peppery heat, and tangy creamy texture. And it takes minimal effort to make! I’m a condiment girl all the way. I like “the works” on top of hot dogs and burgers, blue cheese for my wings, mustard to dip pretzels in, and ketchup and/or hot sauce drizzled on eggs. For me, the dressing can make or break a salad!...

Keto Spanakopita Dip

May 27, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

Keto Spanakopita Dip is rich and super cheesy with four kinds of cheese, and garlic and dill bump up the flavor! I never heard anyone complaining of too many cheesy dip recipes. (I mean, is there such a thing as too much cheese?!) With that in mind, here I took inspiration from delicious Greek cuisine and made a low carb version of Spanakopita, no crispy crust needed!...
