Keto Almond Shortbread Cookies

Keto Almond Shortbread Cookies

    I personally love the ketogenic diet. I love how I feel, especially the energy and sound sleep I have experienced. I love that my joints no longer ache and let’s be honest, that my waistline is shrinking. But switching over to a keto lifestyle means giving up on a lot of the foods I have loved in the past. The first thing my husband said when he bit into my keto almond shortbread cookies is,…

Broccolini, Garlic Scape and Pesto Flat Bread

Broccolini, Garlic Scape and Pesto Flat Bread

Garlic Scapes are whimsical, curly flowering stems that grow up from the bulb of the garlic plant. I trim them off about two to three weeks before harvesting the garlic bulbs. Many people use them as an addition to a bouquet of flowers, in stir-fry dishes, finally chopped and added to a morning egg scramble, or in just about any dish where garlic is used. They are milder in taste than a clove of…

Keto Chocolate Chip High Fiber Cookies

Back in August my husband and I started changing our diet to no grains, no sugar, and lower protein. What have I missed the most? Sinking my teeth into something deliciously sweet and loaded with carbs. But I have done too much research to give in to those cravings. What does my diet mostly contain? Lots of cruciferous vegetables, avocados, coconut oil, ghee, nuts, wild caught fish, grass-fed…

Rum in de Coconut Keto Cookies

Rum in de Coconut Keto Cookies

If there is one thing I have realized about the Keto lifestyle, it’s how addicted to sugar I was. Wanting that little sweet bite after dinner to finish off the meal was often a given, even when I knew sugar was bad for me. I’d occasionally go to the grocery store and buy a bag of chocolate chips with full intentions of getting them into gluten-free cookies, but they rarely made it. A few chips…

What You Eat Matters...Period.

What You Eat Matters…Period.

What you eat matters. Let me say it again, what you eat matters! I’ve been on a journey these past six weeks, which is the reason for not posting for quite some time. I turned 55 in September. By the time my mother was 55, she had renal kidney cancer, esophagus surgery, lupus, scleroderma, Sjogren’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and Reynaud’s disease. By the time she was 65, she had a double…

Grain and Sugar free Huckleberry Muffin

Grain and Sugar free Huckleberry Muffin

It is not easy creating a grain and sugar-free huckleberry muffin that tastes good, but this one definitely meets the criteria! You will find this muffin moist and flavorful, and a treat if you are on a keto diet. My husband and I recently returned from an Alaskan cruise to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday. We were on a Princess Cruise ship, which had mediocre gluten-free options, but I still…
