You won’t be able to stop eating this dip! Serve it with veggie dippers, low-carb pita chips, or Keto crackers. It’s a good thing it makes a lot because it will disappear fast.

I recently saw some large green tomatoes in the produce department in a specialty grocery store. I HAD to pick some up to make some Keto Fried Green Tomatoes. Green tomatoes are seasonal, so I did not want to miss this opportunity. If you grow your own tomatoes, pick some while they are green, so […]

I had some blistered shishito peppers as an appetizer at a restaurant in Hot Springs, Arkansas, last year. One bite, and I was hooked. I liked them so much that I decided to make a version of my own when I got home. The only problem with this recipe is that Shishito Peppers may be […]

Budweiser came out with a zero-carb beer called Next. When I saw it in the store I had to buy it. It was a total impulse buy. It is a super light and crisp beer just as the packaging indicates. I would even say that it was almost like a seltzer. With my beer in […]

I am jumping off my Keto and low-carb bandwagon today, to share my Layered Mexican Dip. You could leave out the beans to keep it Keto, but what is the fun in that? This dip is a favorite at parties and potlucks. Don’t get me started about serving this to teenagers! You might want to […]

I am always looking for new ways to use fathead dough. Not only is it fun to create new recipes, but I like to create something out of nothing. These did not turn out as I originally intended, but the result was what I had hoped for: DELICIOUS! These cheesy Pizza Sticks are loaded with […]
