These ooey gooey squares of goodness are one of the best ways to get a side in when you need a lot of fat. By itself, this cheese isn't the best - but it has the solubility to stand up to the high temperature required for frying. Get a nice layer of crisp on these bad boys and they're seriously good eats. They make for great snacks, or a great side item to a lean meal or keto Mexican meal. Just be aware that they don't save great - they're best served hot. Yields 5 total servings The ...

About xylitol: 1 cup of xylitol, a sugar alcohol, has 228g carbs, but as humans we don't have the enzymes to process any of the nutrients from xylitol, so it passes through our system. Studies show that blood sugars and ketone levels are not affected by this in humans, but it can cause digestive upset if you are sensitive to sugar alcohols. If you aren't sure how you will react to xylitol, use in moderation. I recommend trying one piece 2-3 times a day, preferably after eating. I have a ...

Flavored Keto Cheese Chips
January 16, 2014 by 17 Comments
I've seen a trend lately where people are continuing to try to find the greatest chips to make. I know that celery root makes some of the best keto chips around, but why go through all the hassle of deep frying them? You can easily make chips in under 15 minutes with the help of our best friend - cheese. These make for a great party snack or work as an appetizer - make different flavored chips and different flavored sauces. In this recipe I made 3 different flavors of chips. The first was a ...

Keto Tea: Iced Green Tea Recipe
January 13, 2014 by 42 Comments
Despite having tons of health benefits, keto tea fits right on in with my breakfast and lunch schedule. I do intermittent fasting, and ketoproof tea gives me plenty of energy along with satiation through the morning fasting hours. I decided to take on an iced approach since I really like a cold drink in the morning and it helps me get it down much quicker in my morning eating window. Since I don't do a full day fasting, drinking ketoproof tea in the morning really ramps up my metabolism with ...

Low Carb Fried Mac & Cheese
January 2, 2014 by 42 Comments
I was requested to make this recipe, in order to find a better way around cauliflower tots. When you make them in the oven, they're not that great - a little bit crispy on the top and then pure mush throughout. I figured...if people are making faux mac and cheese in the oven from roasting cauliflower, why can't I do it fried? When I made these, I wasn't planning to eat them. I had just eaten dinner and was stuffed to the brim. You know what? They looked so good after I finished them that ...

Keto Bites: Asian Pork & Shrimp
December 16, 2013 by 4 Comments
I've always liked the idea of eating food with my hands. Being able to pick something up and eat it without mess is a luxury most of us overlook. It's easy, convenient, and can be mobile when needed. I'd imagine pretty much anybody could make these. They're really simple and I got most of the prep out of the way hours ahead of time. The hardest thing here is cutting everything up, and that's one of the easiest things to do! While it is a bit time consuming to cut things, it's well worth the ...

Spiced Bacon Deviled Eggs
December 13, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Deviled eggs are an extremely versatile food. You can serve them as an appetizer, a breakfast, or even for lunch. They're delicious one-biters and will please almost anyone you give them to. I've not met many people who don't like bacon and eggs (besides vegetarians/vegans). The moment you put them in your mouth, the rosemary hits you - filling your mouth with an herbaceous aroma and taste. As you chew, the dijon and bacon comes through, refreshing your entire palette. The egg whites start to ...

Keto Recipe: Better Than Goldfish
October 28, 2013 by 43 Comments
It's not always easy finding something that's crunchy and satisfying when it comes to keto recipes, in fact most of the things I eat have no crunch at all. Sometimes those crunch cravings hit me hard at night, when I just get home and want a fast and easy snack. I found this goldfish cracker recipe online and modified it to use coconut flour to minimize the carbs. They're freaking delicious - crispy, crunchy, cheesy, the holy trinity. Best of all this keto snack only takes about 10 minutes to ...

Pizza Keto Chips
October 24, 2013 by 4 Comments
There's nothing better than a tasty, quick, and easy to make snack. These pizza chips are fantastic for batch cooking and throwing in your fridge for a rainy day. They're a bit messy to make, but they are so damn tasty you won't regret the cleanup. Make sure you're wielding plenty of paper towels so we can soak up that grease later on, and make these suckers extra crispy. What could be better than a super crisp piece of meat with some ooey gooey cheese on top? I'd say there's not much ...
