Keto Cinnamon Pecans

What a treat! Warm, roasted nuts coated with cinnamon remind me of Fall weather. You can use any nuts for this recipe, but my favorite combination is pecans and almonds, or only pecans or only almonds because I always have them on hand. These candied nuts are keto-friendly, making a great snack, especially when you […]

Instant Pot Faux-tisserie Sticky Chicken

I have several versions of my popular Sticky Chicken recipe. Of course, the original version is roasted low and slow in the oven. On a side note, smoking the chicken in a smoker is a sub-recipe of the original version. A quicker version is the Sticky Chicken Tenders. Today, I am introducing yet another version, […]

Keto Cottage Pie

Topped with mashed cauliflower, this savory Cottage Pie is baked to perfection. This recipe seems to have a lot of ingredients, but it is really very easy to assemble. You could substitute ground lamb in this casserole, but then you would have to change the name to Shepherd’s Pie. Either way, it is delicious! Ingredients […]

Stuffed Tomato Basil Peppers

Stuffed peppers were my father’s favorite meal. The stuffed peppers in this recipe are nothing like the ones my mother used to make, but they are oh, so good! These roasted peppers are made with ground beef like my mother’s, but the meat is mixed with a delicious tomato basil cream sauce. Everything you need […]

Keto Sesame Italian Butter Cookies

Butter cookies are an easy-to-make Keto treat, so I have kicked it up a notch by using my tried and true butter cookie recipe with an Italian flare. These cookies pair well with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate. The sesame seeds give these cookies a slight crunch on the outside, but they are […]

Creamed Corn

Let me just say that corn is not an allowed food on a Keto diet, but when fresh corn is in season, I have to make my creamed corn. My maternal grandmother taught me how to make corn like this, so I let myself have it every once in awhile. Ingredients 2-3 cups fresh corn […]

Delicious and Nutritious Italian Spinach

Italian Spinach dresses up any meal with its colorful presentation and fresh flavors. A decent amount of fresh spinach is needed to yield enough for a side dish. Serve this healthy side dish with any main dish. Ingredients 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tsp. minced garlic 1 small red onion, chopped 1 package […]
