Low Carb Dinuguan: Savory Pork Stew
A friend invited us to her Game of Thrones viewing party. She requested everyone dress up and bring a dish to match the theme. Josh and I thought this would be a terribly perfect opportunity to introduce our friends to dinuguan. WHICH IS MADE FROM THE BLOOD OF OUR ENEMIES! Well, okay, it's actually made with pig's blood (pigs are not our enemies), but that's not as on theme. Maybe we've just eliminated all our enemies. Who knows? What we do know is that dinuguan is delicious,

What To Eat This Week- 5 Day Keto Menu

However, meal prepping is excellent for: keeping me on track preventing me from overeating spending more money than I need to (guys, I live in Boston, you know I'm on a budget) those LAZY days where I don't feel like

Low Carb Hamburger Buns
We've all been there. You're craving a burger, but you don't want to wrap it in lettuce or put it on a bed of lettuce because let's be honest with ourselves, that second one is just a salad.

It's filling, doesn't taste like eggs, and best of all doesn't stick to your fingers or feel greasy. Oh, and did I mention that these buns actually stay toge

Low Carb Mushroom Chicken
A couple weeks ago Josh and I spent a weekend in New Jersey visiting friends and playing board games (Side note: if you haven't played Captain Sonar - you are missing out!). By the time we got back to Boston Sunday night, we didn't really have time to meal prep. So ... like any normal person, we threw a bunch of stuff that "sounded good" (Josh hates when I do that) into a crock pot and hoped for the best. We woke up in the morning to an apartment filled with a delicious mushr
