One of my favorite cheeses is baked brie. A while ago a friend had a party, and one of the appetizers was a baked brie wrapped in phyllo dough. It looked delicious, so I knew I had to make a keto version with cheesy dough. For this recipe, I also added in some bacon bits and a few tablespoons of chopped, sauteed mushrooms, which took this baked brie to the next level. You don’t have to use both of those though; it would still be incredibly delicious with caramelized onions and pancetta, ...
Instant Pot Artichoke Dip
This artichoke and spinach dip is just like your favorite restaurant appetizer, but you can make this one at home in just a few minutes. Chopped artichoke hearts and spinach are mixed into an ultra cheesy, and super filling dip. Don't have an Instant Pot? That's OK! You can also put this in the slower cooker on low for a few hours, or even just cook it on the stove. I like using the Instant Pot more because it's faster and easier to clean. I used Swiss cheese in this dip because I like ...

Pimento Cheese Dip
I have a new found love for sweet chilli peppers such as pimento (also known as cherry peppers). They are sweet, spicy, and best yet only 2 carbs per pepper! I recently tried pimento cheese on a burger and I figured...it was time to make it into a dip! This recipe only has 4 ingredients and is incredibly easy to make. In fact, the hardest part was finding the peppers. Now, I couldn’t find any raw pimento peppers, so instead, I picked up a pack (10 pcs) of stuffed cherry antipasto. You ...
