Faux Vegetable Couscous

One thing I miss on the Keto diet is pasta. I also miss beans and corn and bananas and…..the list goes on. Some people substitute pasta with zoodles or something similar, but it is just not the same.

Baked Macaroni and Cheese: A Starch-Resistant Recipe

First of all, this is not a Keto recipe, but it can be if you make the macaroni 24 hours before you are going to use it. Storing the macaroni in the refrigerator for 24 hours makes it starch resistant, which will not cause the blood sugar to spike. Starch-resistant foods should be eaten in […]
