Keto Recipes, Reviews, and Tips
After enjoying my first The Keto Box last month, I was really excited to see what the May box would have in store. April’s box had a really nice mix of keto “treats” and staple low carb pantry items, and I was hoping May would have a nice variety as well. I wasn’t disappointed! As a reminder, The Keto Box […]

Pre-keto, there were precisely two types of candy that I had a particular weakness for. One was chocolate, which is a craving that is thankfully pretty easy to satisfy without ruining my macros for the day. Unfortunately, the other was a bit more of a challenge. You see, I love gummy bears. Like, really love them. The kind of love that lets […]

Few things in life go better together than chocolate and peanut butter, but obviously those familiar orange Reese’s wrappers in the candy aisle are totally off limits for keto. From time to time I had still been able to enjoy the chocolate/PB combination in other ways, like by peanut butter to my low carb brownies or simply spreading some on […]

Although I definitely have a stash of supplements that I keep on hand, with everything from protein powder and vitamin D to electrolytes and BCAAs, I was always pretty skeptical about adding exogenous ketones to that collection. I’ve been keto for more than two years at this point, so certainly my body should be an expert at making it’s own ketones […]

Since childhood, there have been exactly two things that are pretty much guaranteed to wake me up in the morning. One is the smell of bacon frying, and the other is the smell of cinnamon rolls baking. Now obviously that first one hasn’t changed post-keto (if anything, I love the smell of bacon even more now), but it had definitely […]

It can do everything from adding extra protein (obviously) to creating a fluffier texture or more “rise” in a finished product. Usually I like to use a minimal whey powder for cooking to minimize the […]

Although I was super excited to see the variety of low carb and keto subscription boxes that have hit the market recently, I always hesitated to buy a subscription for myself. Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just buy my own keto snacks and ingredients? I figured it would be, so I kept putting it off and putting it off…until a […]

I’ll be honest. My first attempts at low carb cast iron pizza were partially driven by laziness. The traditional low carb “Fathead” pizza crust recipe isn’t that hard to make, but sometimes I don’t feel like dealing with the hassle of rolling out the crust and trying to make it look like an actual pizza. I already had a cast […]

One of the things I get asked most often is how I make my cheese taco shells so “perfect.” This has always been a confusing question for me because 1. I don’t really think they look that impressive, and 2. they are super easy to make! There are a couple of different ways to go about it, but I tend […]

If I had to point my finger at one thing that made keto go from something I was trying out temporarily to something that I could potentially do long term, it would probably be the famous “Fathead” pizza crust recipe. I’ve always loved pizza, so having a keto-friendly version that is delicious and pretty easy to make was a game […]
