Minute Muffins! When a craving for something special hits, who has time to make a batch of cookies or brownies or wait for things to refrigerate overnight? Not us. You want dessert and you want it now! That's why we make single-serve mug cakes that can be ready in as little as a minute in [...]
A Delicious Low Carb Sauce from a Beautiful Country! We are absolutely loving our time in Italy. Not only is it one of the most beautiful places we've ever seen, it's also an interesting and colorful country. Our time in Rome was brief, we only enjoyed a week there. We crammed in as much site-seeing [...]
Back to Basics with a Low Carb Cheesecake! It dawned on us one day that even though we have tons of low carb dessert recipes, a few of which are cheesecake related, we didn’t actually have our faithful, original cheesecake recipe published. I’m not sure what came over us or why we didn’t realize it [...]
Low Carb Waffles! We're currently in Florence, Italy, and while it's a little hard to stay low carb, we're doing just fine :). One of the ways we're sticking to our keto diet is cooking at home as much as we can. That means most breakfasts and lunches are made right at home. We have an [...]
A Taste of Summer! There's nothing like some delicious fish tacos in the summer. I've been meaning to make them for a long time but fish tacos are one of those elusive foods that only come to mind when you see them on a menu in a restaurant or bar. This recipe was totally out of [...]
A Simple, Keto Italian Feast! Why Italian on this particular day? It's exactly 2 weeks until we leave for our Italian adventure! Rami and I have been planning a sort of Eurotrip for a few months now and it's finally upon us. We're officially going to Italy and a few other countries over the next couple of [...]
Chipotles are Jalapeños! That's right. Chipotle peppers are actually smoke-dried red jalapeños. I was blown away by this fact when I read about it after we decided to create the Ultimate Keto Mexican Casserole with a kick that used those smoky peppers. Call them whatever you'd like, they are delicious! The Process Jalapeños grow in large fields by [...]
The holy grail of keto, low carb desserts! These skillet brownies are dense, moist and full of flavors, without the added carbs from sugar and flour- each serving is only 3g of net carbs!
Playing With Our Food! Growing up, I never paid green beans any attention, except when they were forced upon me, which was rare! I was lucky (or unlucky) enough to have been given some degree of freedom when it came to food early on in life. Either that or I made such a fuss about eating [...]
Low Carb and Staying on Trend! Poke bowls are all the rage right now from New York to LA. Everybody's loving the layers of flavors in one, portable, snackable bowl. Many places have opened up catering to just poke bowls themselves where you can customize your mix-ins as you would a salad! You can choose [...]
Our Seal of Approval! When Rami and I first started blogging in February of 2015, we contacted tons of blogging mavens to allow us to guest post on their site in order to get our name out there. Martina from KetoDietApp was one of the first to agree! We ended up making a Low Carb [...]
5 Ingredients, 5 Carbs or Fewer! Dinner can be the hardest part of the day. After long hours of work or school, it can be quite a daunting task to come home and cook for yourself, much less a hungry family! Factor in eating healthy and your options can become limited. It's fun to shake [...]
Definitely one for the garlic lovers! Last week, we went to a friend's birthday at a Russian bathhouse (called a Banya). If you haven't been to a bathhouse, it's basically lots of sauna, relaxing, eating and drinking! One of the best things about the bathhouse we go to is their food. From appetizers to entrees, [...]
Zero Carb Noodles! Last week we decided to get a bunch of Shirataki Miracle Noodles after getting one in our keto krate a few months ago. We got the variety pack which includes 2 packs each of fettuccine, rice and angel hair "pasta". These zero carb noodles are made from an ingredient called konnyaku flour. Konnyaku flour comes from [...]
Classic Combos Are Always a Hit! You can't go wrong with a good peanut butter and chocolate dessert. The two are already naturally low carb friendly so there's not much work you need to do. In fact, most nights, Rami and I enjoy tea with a bit of Lindt 90% Cocoa and a spoonful of peanut [...]
Energy, Naturally. We've been getting a lot of requests lately for breakfasts that aren't eggs. More people than we could have ever imagined have egg allergies and breakfast for them can sometimes be limited. That, and most people need a break from eating eggs every morning! While eggs are a great keto option, you may not [...]
So many Asian cuisines, so little time! Our love for Asian food knows no bounds - Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and especially Korean. What stands out most are the different layers of flavors used in each dish. It's like a journey in each bowl. Plus, everything can be made spicy, fitting our personal preferences for foods with a nice [...]
We All Speak A Universal Language... The language of chocolate! Chocolate has a special place in my heart, not only for being delicious but also for being incredibly good for you. Conventional chocolate in the form of cups, bars, cakes and pastries has one thing in common that gives it a bad rep - sugar. [...]
Fancy With Few Ingredients! We came up with dozens of low carb dinner recipes for our newest project: 30 Low Carb Dinners eCookbook - all up to 5 grams of net carbs using only 5 ingredients each! Since we were limited to only 5 ingredients, we realized we had tons of recipe ideas to share [...]
This Low Carb Recipe Will Spice Up Your Flank! The other night, we were in the mood for a different, mouth-watering sauce and had some fresh flank steak waiting to be cooked so I decided to come up with a tasty sauce that had some OOMPH. When it comes to our taste buds, we love strong [...]
