I have always loved loaded baked potatoes and loaded mashed potatoes, though. Everything is better with bacon, butter, and cheese, right? This recipe mimics a loaded baked potato. It has bacon, onion, sour cream, and TONS of cheese. It pairs well with any meat, but we like eating it as a side to steak for … Continue reading Loaded Cauliflower Bake

Mexican Cauliflower Rice
I love eating Mexican food. It has been easy for me to come up with keto substitutes for Mexican entrees, such as Mexican chicken or Carne Asada. Side dishes have presented more of a problem for me, because we don't eat rice and beans. This Mexican-style Cauliflower Rice fixes that problem for me. Here is … Continue reading Mexican Cauliflower Rice
Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
It's no secret to anyone who knows me that I have a major sweet tooth. Even when I am sticking to my keto way of eating, I crave dessert. Of all the dessert choices, chocolate and peanut butter are two of my favorites, either separately or combined. My husband and I have worked to create … Continue reading Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
Weekly Meal Plan – 05/05/2019
Guess who's back?! It has definitely been a minute. The first quarter and a half of this year has been kind of crazy. In January, I had to say goodbye to my kitty.

Our local chocolate shop, Chocolate Creations, launched their keto and sugar free chocolates today, and I tried most of them. They had truffles, molded chocolates, and almond clusters. They also did chocolate dipped strawberries but I passed on that. … Continue reading Deeper State Keto – Day 14
Deeper State Keto – Week 2
Week one of the Deeper State Keto program is done and I am back to where I was around Thanksgiving before I started cheating. Obviously, based on the changes in my measurements, I was retaining a ton of water. I expect the loss to begin slowing this week. My measurements today are: Weight: 237.6 (down … Continue reading Deeper State Keto – Week 2
Keto Chili with Beans
Chili garnished with guacamole, sour cream, and cheddar cheese. The weather is getting colder and it is time to switch from summer salads to winter soups and stews. Every year, it seems like we make a batch of chili at the first sign of cold weather. This year was no different. We had been making … Continue reading Keto Chili with Beans
