    Keto Chocolate Coffee Cookies

    Winter is a great time for cookie baking. If you’re like me, there are childhood memories of creating cookies as a kid that hit me right in the feels.  On a keto lifestyle, it can feel like that piece of our lives can only live on in our memories. However, we can have fun and delicious cookies while following a keto diet… we just have to tackle the dough from a different perspective.  Introducing the Sugar-Free Chocolate Coffee Cookies: a delectable treat perfect for any festive occasion, especially a Christmas cookie swap. These cookies delight all, regardless of their sugar-free lifestyle. They strike a harmonious balance between indulgence and health-consciousness,…

    SUGARLESS SIMPLE SYRUPS KETO FRIENDLY

    In today’s fast-paced world, finding a moment of tranquility and indulgence can be a challenge.  There’s something undeniably special about treating yourself to a fancy coffee shop drink, whether it’s a frothy latte, a velvety cappuccino, or a decadent mocha. It’s a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, savor a delicious treat, and perhaps most importantly, to connect with a friend over a steaming cup of goodness. But let’s face it – as much as we love those indulgent coffee shop visits, they’re not always feasible. Between hectic schedules, tight budgets, and health-conscious choices, swinging by the local coffee shop drive-thru isn’t always the most practical…

    KETO FRIENDLY SAUSAGE PANCAKE BREAKFAST SANDWICH

    Breakfast is my Favorite! I love the classic eggs and bacon, creamy yogurt with keto cereal, and stacks of keto waffles!  But I also love breakfast to-go and today’s recipe is great for that! Ta-da! It’s my Keto Breakfast Sandwich!  In my pre-keto days, I loved the McDonald’s “McGriddles”… lightly sweet pancakes, sausage patty, and sometimes an egg with cheese… YUM. This recipe does take a little extra time to prepare, but it’s totally worth it! Be efficient when making this recipe! The key to this recipe is being efficient with your time. Get started by heating your frozen sausage patty on a skillet before anything else. This gives it…

    Delicious Low Carb Snack Bars with a Berry Filling

    Have you ever met a child who doesn’t love snacks? I sure haven’t. We’re trying to help our kids make better, low sugar choices as they grow. But snack time is a hard obstacle to overcome. These Low Carb Berry Snack Bars are a delicious treat for them that won’t cause those sugar monsters to pop out as the day progresses. Encouraging our kids to eat more nutrient dense foods can be tricky. Which means we have to work a lot smarter (and maybe a little harder)!  Kids can have a limited range when it comes to foods they’re willing to eat with gusto. And that’s totally fine. The unknown…

    HOW MUCH FAT AND PROTEIN?

    “KETO DIET” synopsis: Eat Fat. Eat Protein. Limit Carbs. Seems like a simple concept. Cut out the crackers, chips, pastas, and potatoes. Check. Put MCT Oil Powder in coffee. Check. Eat all the bacon. Check.  But wait, how much protein? How much fat? Did I go over my carbs?!?! Everyone has different needs as it pertains to macronutrients (fat, protein, and carbohydrates). It’s easy to ask a variety of influencers what their macros are and decide to follow in lockstep with them. But the way one person eats may not be the way YOU need to eat. Instead of guessing what your body requires, try using a Macro Calculator. I like Perfect…

    STRAWBERRY CREAM SODA

    You may know these as “Italian Sodas”, but it feels like pure American summer to me! I’ve had store bought strawberry cream soda in the past… in my pre-keto days. They were tasty, but nothing that truly “WOWed” me.  I typically preferred the classic Texan fizzy soft drink: Dr. Pepper. #TexasBorn However, I don’t purchase soft drinks any more. In fact, the husband and I haven’t regularly bought sodas during the entirety of our nearly 18 year marriage.  It’s not a cheap product and we usually were more focused on other ways to get high fructose corn syrup… like through cereals and other packaged sweets.  Once we switched to a…
