    Can We Make Quick Keto Cereal?

    Is there anything quite like that childhood memory of pouring a bowl of cereal and plopping down in front of the tv for some Saturday morning cartoons?  I can’t think of any.  I wasn’t ever the kid who went “coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs”, but I did love Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Apple Jacks. Dry, mind you… with a glass of milk on the side.  As I’ve gotten older, those nostalgic things have recaptured my heart. When you want a cereal crunch, there aren’t many things that will really satisfy that craving.  There are multiple brands of “Keto” cereal on the grocery store shelves, but they usually have weird ingredients and…

    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.

    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…

    COPYCAT “SMARTCAKES” RECIPE

    For a while, Smartcakes™ were all the rage in the Keto/Low Carb world.  Tons of people following a low carb or keto lifestyle raved about them. They were definitely worth the hype, but their price tag is super high. In an effort to enjoy such a tasty treat without costing me my first born, I played around in my kitchen and came up with something that tastes great! It’s not a perfect 1:1 comparison, but gram for gram my recipe performs really well. Here’s my Copycat “SmartCakes” recipe Just a couple of notes about the different ingredients I’ve used:  Oat Fiber: This flour substitute helps add the bulk and lightness…

    How to Make Fluffy Pancakes

    Fluffy pancakes on THM can be somewhat illusive. While I prefer eggs and greens in the morning, somedays I just really want some fluffy pancakes. To date, I’ve been pretty disappointed with how flat most THM friendly pancake recipes fall. After a bit of workshopping some ideas, I’ve come up with this recipe! The best part (I believe) is that it’s flexible on fuel types and I could find everything at my local Walmart, except the whey protein. But even then, there were some whey isolate options there that could’ve worked! I hope you’ll try out my recipe and let me know what you think!

    Keto Spiced Cheesecake

    Around the holidays, you hear so much discussion about pumpkin-this and pumpkin-that. I like pumpkin. But I don’t LOVE it the way that I see people sharing on social media. And Jarred’s not a fan of pumpkin at all. So the whole pumpkin thing is kind of wasted around here. Instead of going the pumpkin route for holiday desserts, I wanted to try my hand at making a “gingerbread” flavored cheesecake. I’m certain there are seventy-bajillion gingerbread cheesecake recipes out there – and half are probably Trim Healthy Mama friendly… But I wanted to play around in my kitchen and this is what I came up with – Spiced Cheesecake!…

    Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce

    Spaghetti sauce is one of those things I never buy… ever. https://youtu.be/RyISdioEY4A It’s entirely too simple to make myself, so I never think to add it to a grocery list! My Mom-in-Love taught me to make spaghetti sauce myself, and I’ve never looked back.The recipe I use isn’t really a recipe so much as a gut response to whatever happens to be in my pantry at the time. Hopefully this “recipe” (a loose term in my kitchen) will point you in the right direction for your own personal spaghetti sauce. P.S. This sauce freezes very well, so make the whole batch (or two or three) and squirrel away the extra…
