It was my birthday this week. I spent a fun evening with my friend Karen at the Kananaskis Nordic Spa enjoying the hot pools and enduring the cold ones. At -24° C it was an interesting experience, and a purportedly healthy one too. Cold immersion is reported to help convert white fat to brown fat,…
Keto Crab Stuffed Mushrooms
It has been a while since I’ve felt motivated and inspired to add something new, like these delicious crab stuffed mushrooms, to the Daily Dish. It’s certainly not because I haven’t been cooking, as that is my daily reality, cooking fresh, real food meals for my family every day. It’s really more that I, like…
Keto Chicken Taquitos
These spicy-as-you-like-them Keto taquitos are just the thing for an easy lunch, especially if you’ve got just a bit of leftover cooked chicken in the fridge. I often roast whole, parted, chickens and though they are always a hit, certain parts are more popular with the fam-jam than others. I go for the wings –…
Jalapeño Popper Chicken
Got a craving for jalapeño poppers but need something more substantial for dinner? That was me the other day and this recipe for Jalapeño Popper Chicken fit the bill perfectly. Checking off all of my boxes (simple, quick, keto or at least low carb, and delicious) isn’t always easy but this dish was – easy…
Skirt Steak with Romesco Sauce and Cherry Tomato Relish
Skirt steak, or just skirt, is cut from the plate area of cattle. It is similar to flank steak in that it is very highly grained and is similarly cooked, and sliced. It is the cut most often associated with fajitas. Coming from the diaphragm area this is a lean and hard working muscle…
Keto Guacamole Egg Stacks
It’s early, my favourite time of the day in the summer. The sun is up, the birds are singing their variety of morning songs and I’ve already been out in the garden for an hour or so, hoping to beat the heat that is expected later in the day. But now I’m hungry! Since I…
Seriously Awesome Low Carb Crackers
One of the things about an LCHF/ketogenic lifestyle that really works for me, though it admittedly doesn’t work for everybody as it stalls weight loss for some, is my ability to eat cheese. I love cheese. If I could healthily exist on red wine and cheese I probably would and when I was eating a…
Low Carb Jambalaya – a quick and easy weekend dinner
This quick and easy low carb jambalaya was today’s solution to satisfying Steve’s craving for some spicy southern food. It also was a great way to whip up a tasty dinner in a hurry after an already busy day in the kitchen. We enjoy making fermented sausages like salami and chorizo and after spending a…
Creamy Greek Feta Dressing
I love the Creamy Greek Feta Dressing by Renee’s Gourmet Dressing. It is tasty, everyone loves it, and it is made with pretty great fresh ingredients. The only thing that isn’t ideal is the canola oil that is ever so common in packaged dressings. Canola, and other oils like soybean are used in products that will…
Low Carb ‘Apple’ turnovers
Yup I said apple. Well, sort of. Do you remember oh so many years ago when mock apple pie hit your mom’s recipe books. You know, the one that used Ritz brand crackers rather than actual apples? Who’s idea was that anyway??!! Can you imagine why on earth you would want to replace a perfectly…
