I have now completed Day 13 of Whole30. I am retaining some weight today and I’m not exactly sure what it is from. It could be the shrimp or it could be the sauerkraut I’ve been adding to my salads. If it is the sauerkraut then I could have a problem with FODMAPs. I really…
Grilled Ranch Chicken (Low Carb and Gluten Free)
My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Grilled Ranch Chicken. I have been on a search for a replacement for my beloved ranch seasoning and dressing. Ranch is my favorite condiment and I use it on everything. Even though Ranch is low carb, the store bought versions often contain sugar and/or other unnecessary ingredients. After…

Strawberry Popsicles (Low Carb and Gluten Free)

My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Fourth of July Jello. I wanted a dessert that would be good for my 4th of July celebrations. My go to dessert is a layered jello, but I didn’t want to usual sugar free jello out of the box (plus I don’t eat products sweetened with aspartame anymore). …
Italian Style “Pasta” Salad (Low Carb and Gluten Free)
My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Italian Style “Pasta” Salad. Now that it is summer time I’ve been making a lot of salad recipes. Most of my salad recipes contain mayonnaise, which isn’t good if the salad is going to be left outside for a long time. I decided to come up with a…

My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Hot Dog Relish and Faux-tato Salad. To me summer means relaxing by the pool and enjoying delicious food at family BBQs.

Grilled Marinated Flank Steak (Low Carb and Gluten Free)
My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Grilled Marinated Flank Steak. I don’t know about you, but normally when I think of flank steak I think of a dry, tough piece of meat. Most of the time it is way overcooked and you can barely chew it. I had never actually made flank steak before,…
