Are You Screaming for Ice Cream?

Today is National Hot Fudge Sundae Day, and there is no reason that we low-carbers and keto-eaters should be left out, right? By definition, a hot fudge sundae consists of 4 elements (depending on who you ask): ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, and a cherry on top! For an occasional treat or celebration – …

RECIPE: Inside-Out Breakfast Sandwich Casserole

This delight formed a layer of biscuit-like bready goodness inside when it baked! I was surprised and thrilled…and it was even better the next day! This is what I did, and am looking forward to making it again this week! I was surprised at the “biscuit” inside, and am thinking that the combination of bacon …

SNACK TIME!

These recipes are all low carb at the very least, keto for sure, and many are suitable for carnivore if you use seasonings. I worked hard to break my snacking habit, especially in the evenings. But as I find my 2 meals getting further and further apart on busy days I often need just a …

Recipe: Courtney Luna’s Carnivore-Keto Dinner Roll

I decided to try this today, but instead made a mini-loaf in my 3×5 glass loaf pan. I doubled the recipe that is linked here and, of course, I didn’t make it exactly as she created it: I added about a tsp of sour cream with about ½ tsp of baking powder. It turned out …

Quick Chicken Wraps

I came home HUNGRY and wanted something NOW! This was my answer. And definitely will be the answer in the future! I like to keep chicken or turkey deli meat when I can find a clean brand, and use them for “noodles” or layers or wraps or other things. This time I wrapped a couple …

KETO: Sunday is PIZZA Day!

At least, when Pete and I are home on Sunday we have pizza; most Sundays we pick our grandkids up, take them to church, then out to lunch, and I don’t eat again once we come home. But today we’re home, and I’m really loving this pizza. I always try a little bit different type …

Some Things Just Hit The Spot!

Though I eat a predominantly animal-based diet, I do enjoy a couple of keto days each week (and even an occasional “day off”). The last few days I’ve been wanting cabbage so today I picked up a package of cole slaw mix as I was in no shape to do all the work of dealing …

Cooking: Animal-Based Snickerdoodlers

I recently bought a whole pork belly with the skin on, and cut it into approx. 1# squares. To prepare them, I roast one in the AFO, wrapped in parchment and then foil, skin-side-up, at 325°F, until done. (This depends on the side of the square, the thickness, etc.) I then separate the skin from …

Cooking: Cordon Bleu Lasagna

OK, this isn’t technically a lasagna, though it is layered…and it isn’t technically a chicken cordon bleu, though it has a similar profile…but what it IS, is delicious! In a small round baking dish that I’d sprayed to prevent sticking, I laid down a couple of thin slices of deli chicken…then some diced ham…then some …

Now THIS is Something Good: Chicken Melt Pizza

Sundays have typically been pizza day for Pete & I. But when we’re taking the grands to church, we also take them out for lunch afterward, and then don’t have our pizza. Today, however, the kids had other plans and I couldn’t have gotten to church anyway so we had our pizza day. Pete has …

Just Another Carnivore Bread Experiment 🎖️

There are tons of carnivore bread recipes out there. So why don’t I just use one of those? Well, for some of us the fun is in the creating. I have always cooked and baked using the SoMP (Seat of My Pants) method. Even with a recipe, I always make changes as I work – …
