Low Carb Side: Coconut Kale (Laing)

When you live a low carb lifestyle you can fall into the routine of eating the same sides. Riced cauliflower, fried brussels sprouts, cauliflower "mac" and cheese, repeat. One recipe Josh and I often turn to when we want to mix up our dinners is coconut kale (also known as "lying laing"). We first discovered this recipe in the Adobo Road Cookbook. I highly recommend it. It is full of amazing Filipino recipes. The author—Marvin Gapultos—calls it "lying laing" because tradition

Low Carb Arugula Salad: A Keto Side Dish

If you frequent this website, have been following my journey on Instagram, or really just know me in any way, then you know that salad is not one of my favorite dishes. I tend to avoid it at all costs. In fact, I once very dramatically turned to a coworker and exclaimed, “WOAH, WOAH, WOAH … A smoothie is basically a blended salad?!” Then continued to drink my smoothie like a grossed-out child being forced to eat their veggies. She just laughed, agreed, and continued to drink

Coconut Ginger Mashed Cauliflower

Main dishes get all the love when people search for keto and low carb recipes. Don't get me wrong, a solid main dish is amazing, but in my head, a meal is not complete without a good side to go with it. If you frequent the Keto Show, then you know I eat a lot of cauliflower rice and fried brussels sprouts. They are my go-to sides, but even I get a little tired of them from time to time. When that happens I often fall back on one of the first low carb side dishes I fell in lov

Low Carb Lumpia (or Egg Roll)

If there's one thing that people know about Filipino cuisine, it's lumpia aka eggrolls (Not spring rolls. Y'all more educated than that.). More specifically, I'm talking lumpiang shanghai that are smaller than the eggrolls that you see at a lot of Chinese restaurants. They're just deliciously crispy little snacks filled with meat, possibly some veg. But mostly meat. That's why you're doing low carb, right? Unfortunately, low carb makes getting crispy food kind of difficult. M

How to Make Garlic Cauliflower "Rice"

Cauliflower "rice" has become a staple in our household. It's easy, quick, and delicious. Growing up, Josh would eat garlic rice for breakfast. I grew up thinking waffles/pancakes, cereal, or eggs and bacon were the only foods in the breakfast category. I have been converted. Garlic "rice" with a few strips of bacon on top is now a go to breakfast in our house ... er ... tiny Boston apartment. So how do you actually make garlic cauliflower rice? It really is ridiculously simp

How to Make Homemade Broth

Broth serves as a basis in which most things are built upon. You can use it for ramen, for pot roast, for soups, even drink it straight. The list seriously can go on and on. Broth is how you make the best of those scraps from cutting up your own meat or raiding the manager's special section of the grocery. Super easy to do, and much better tasting than what you would buy at the store. Ingredients: meat and bones (great way to use all those scraps from meals throughout the mon

Low Carb Pepperoni Roll

Anyone who grew up or spent more than four days in West Virginia has heard of the pepperoni roll. Few people who live in West Virginia have never tried one. There are family rivalries over this food. Sounds silly, I know, but it's true. People fight over the proper version and where it originated. My friend Candace is a food critique and West Virginia native. After writing about the pepperoni roll from around Appalachia, she was approached to write a book about the history. S

Low Carb Cheesy Biscuits

Here's a look back at a recipe I did almost four years ago. The video may be dated, but this recipe never disappoints. When I decided to make a blog entry for this video, I noticed I didn't have a My Fitness Pal (MFP) entry for it. After adding it into the recipe builder, I noticed the macros are marginally different than what I have in the video. This is likely due to a different brand of ingredient used 4 years ago versus what I added to the MFP recipe builder. I added this

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. Lucky for you, there's a lot of different bun recipes out there. This one uses almond and coconut flour and is one of my favorites. 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 Spinach Soup

Growing up my grandma used to make this delicious spinach and potato soup. My first winter on keto, I craved this soup. So, I called my grandma, and we worked out a version of her recipe that was low carb, filling, and scrumptious. This recipe is easy to make and is an excellent way to get in all the fats you need for keto. This soup is 49% fat, 2% total carbs (only 3 net carbs), and 6% protein. It also keeps well and is perfect for lunches or dinner on the go. Make a batch o
