My transition to a low carb lifestyle has, for the most part, been pretty easy. With the exception of a few foods which are really, really hard to replicate (bread is particularly tricky), so many foods can be substituted out with low carb options. Though I have never been a huge sweets eater I did find…
A Low Carb Diet Update
Well, I’ve been eating an LCHF or low carb, high fat diet since the beginning of July. I figured maybe it was time to let you know how my big fat experiment was going so far. As I posted in August of this year, I started this experiment in response to my own question about how…
Low Carb Dark Chocolate Almond Joy Bites with Sea Salt
This low carb thing has been pretty easy for the most part, mostly because I never did really crave carbs. I crave cheese, and protein. Might be why this LCHF thing is such a good fit for me 🙂 There have been a few spots that have been more challenging, like eating out, which is…
Keto Mug Lasagne | Low Carb
I am in love with this recipe for low carb/ keto mug lasagne that I ever so slightly adapted from a video from Ginny’s Low Carb Kitchen. I’ve made it 3 times this week, partly because I bought the ricotta cheese and don’t want it to go to waste but mostly because it is super…
Low Carb Stew – Venison or Beef
Today’s post was punctuated by an interesting turn of events that got me thinking about the paradox of loving animals, while at the same time being a true meat eater. It’s a challenging moral dilemma for myself and I’m sure for lots of people. I do wrestle with it and do my best by using…
Creamy Citrus Fusion Slaw
It seems like I’ve made a lot of different coleslaw this year, due to the 6 cabbages that I grew this year. Yes, only 6. That, trust me, is plenty for our family. Enough to make 2 batches of sauerkraut, lots of yummy braised cabbage, and plenty of coleslaw. Even after I gave one cabbage to my…
Kale Salad With Citrus Tahini Dressing
If you had told me even two years ago that kale would be one of my top of list favourite foods, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. After growing it in the garden on a whim in 2014 I have used sooooo much of it. Smoothies, sautés, as a bed for eggs, kale chips….you name…
Homemade Pancetta!
Several weeks ago I purchased a lovely pork belly from my fave producer Irving’s Farm Fresh. Part of the belly was turned into bacon, a portion was roasted as is for a yummy dinner, and the rest was cured and rolled to make homemade pancetta. Pancetta was something I had never tried to make before but can…
Low Carb Sides – Brussel Sprouts with Bacon
One of the misconceptions about eating a low-carb, high-fat diet is that it is all meat and fat. Though fat makes up a huge portion of one’s calories, protein quantities should remain moderate on this eating plan. That is because the goal is to keep your insulin levels very low by reducing the amount of…
Savoury Low Carb Slaw
This summer’s garden has grown 6 big and beautiful cabbages, three green and three red ones. With our cool weather this year I have not had them split the way they did last year which is a huge bonus. It means that at least I haven’t had to harvest and then deal with 6 full…
