I’ve noticed a common denominator with many of my main dishes: I almost always recommend serving them with rice. From Chicken Tikka Masala and Poached Salmon to Garlic Butter Shrimp and Grilled Cod, all are main dishes that I suggest serving with brown rice (Instant Pot Brown Rice is an easy way to make it). To make meals more special, especially if you are looking for a healthy starch to pair alongside a simple protein (like Baked Salmon in Foil), step up your grain game with lemon rice....

You can easily make keto burger buns into hot dog buns, but I’m always tinkering with other options for you. So, here they are – keto hot dog buns made with fathead dough!

As a result, the texture of fathead buns is more soft than other uses of this dough....

As I divulged when sharing this Pumpkin Pecan Pie recipe, regular Libby’s pumpkin pie just doesn’t do it for me. I want to like it, but it just seems…bland. Give me Sweet Potato Pie any day!

I adore that cheesecake but it is…a lot....

I call it my mushroom “journey,” but it was more like an emergency crash course. At my first-ever dinner with my French host family, they set a giant plate heaped with citrus mushrooms at the table. FOR OUR DINNER. I thought I might die. Fearing their disappointment more than death, I took a forkful and…DELICIOUS. Maybe it was the pressure of the moment or maybe my taste buds had changed, but I have been a loyal mushroom lover ever since....

These low carb paleo tortillas with coconut flour came about when I missed the convenience of having a wrap for lunch, instead of my usual low carb salad or leftovers. I only had a few pantry basics on hand, and these 3-ingredient coconut flour tortillas are what came out of it! I’ve since made these keto tortillas that I like even better (they have a more traditional dough rolled out with a rolling pin, and come out more dense and sturdy), but these coconut flour wraps are still a great nut-free option....
