Pork Belly Tacos
Second taco recipe in a row but it's summertime and I'm craving all things taco-ish. Opted to carb it up on this one with some homemade blue corn tortillas and I ain't mad about it. My food photography skills continue to be lacking but after tasting the pork belly I...
Intermittent Fasting – is it right for YOU?
What’s the deal with intermittent fasting and should you be doing it? By now you’ve probably heard about intermittent fasting (IF). Some of you probably have already tried it or are currently doing it, or know someone who does. Some days you probably just do it...
Shrimp Taco Bowl
Can you call something a "taco" bowl if it isn't on a tortilla? I'm not the first person to do that so I guess it's okay. Feel free to have this on tortillas like my husband did in true taco style. I opted for the low-carb, corn-free version in a bowl because I really...

Blended Hug-in-a-Mug Coffee
This fat bomb of a coffee drink can help you to stay in fat-burning mode, avoid carb cravings, and give you a hefty dose of brain-fueling healthy fats. I tend to mix up how I made my version so like most of my recipes this isn't an exact science. If you're new to the...
Keto Cautions
If I was being cute(kute) I would have said “Keto Kautions.” I decided that was dumb but now I guess I’ve said it anyway so here we are. Anyhoo. Chances are you or someone you know is on “the keto diet.” I put that in quotes because it’s not actually a diet of...
Time Your Carbs for Fat Loss
Pop Quiz: Is it better to eat higher carb foods in the morning or in the evening? You’ve probably grown up under the assumption that you should eat more of your carbs in the morning to burn them off, right? And not to eat carbs past 2pm or some other arbitrary time...
