To make this garlic aioli, I blended 6 cloves of garlic to into a batch of fresh mayo (recipe below). You can add more or less garlic, depending on your own tastes. Slather it on a bunless burger or serve as a side with any meat or vegetable. For...
This has become our favorite way to have pizza. No, there’s no crust. But really, we do not miss crust anymore. How is that possible? I dunno. As much as we loved bread all our lives; after three years eating keto, we’re all about the main ingredients–cheese, sauce, meats,...
These were so easy to make. The strawberries need to be rinsed and then allowed to dry thoroughly. While they are drying, melt a 9 oz package of lily’s sugar-free chocolate chips with an ounce of cocoa butter. If you don’t have cocoa butter, you could also use coconut...

Is this not the cutest little snowman?!? We had a post-Thanksgiving luncheon and so we had a little Thanksgiving decor and a little Christmas too. This is a Swiss & Green Onion cheese spread that my grandson has loved since he was a baby. I remember when he was...
