Mmmm…

‘Tis the season for all things pumpkin and here I present you with my own little pumpkin cheesecake pastry. Super easy and super tasty makes this a win all around!

With a little tweak to traditional fathead dough, you can enjoy “Hot Pockets”. Here I’ll show you how to make the dough – with only TWO ingredients – and two types of pockets with some other suggestions.
One of the many wonders of the ketogenic diet is fathead dough. Made of mozzarella, cream cheese, egg, and almond flour, this dough takes all of two minutes to prep for a myriad of recipes. It’s the most universal “dough” I’ve come across and I’m a pretty serious baker. Here I show you how to prep the dough and make two pizzas – classic and breakfast.

Chocolate, peanut butter, and coconut… sweet, crunchy, salty… I dare you to resist this keto bark. Run, don’t walk to your kitchen for this recipe is tasty, easy to whip up, and takes just 30 minutes from start to in your belly.
Between my recent beastly cravings for Nashville hot chicken that I could no longer both stave off and stay sane, and distractedly downing a large Coke that I thought was a Diet Coke, I’ve managed to knock myself out of ketosis. Good thing the keto wagon stops and lets you back on when you fall off.
For me, inspiration is essential to stay on track when I’m getting back into ketosis or when I feel like nothing is changing. Side by side photos are what I’ve found to be the best inspiration out there. (So selfie it up – and often!) On that note, I thought I’d share my progress today.

Today I have a deliciously easy, smooth, creamy pumpkin spice protein shake for you. I have also used this in place of fat bombs since it has a good bit of fat. Please note this recipe makes two shakes the above size so if you’re not sharing, cut in half.

Fall is hands down my favorite time of year. I noticed a couple of weeks ago a faint chill in the air and then Lowe’s put out mums, and I was all game on. Our front door is dressed, the harvest candle is lit on the dining room table, and you’ll find copious amounts of canned pumpkin in our pantry. See, I’m on a mission over the next few months. A mission to make all the keto pumpkin things. Because, let’s be honest, this white girl loves herself some pumpkin spice and I cannot control myself when it comes to pumpkin stuff. So my goal is to satisfy this craving and my strong urge to bake as the temps drop by finding the best of the best pumpkin themed recipes. To kick things off, I present you with a pumpkin snickerdoodle.

If you have a sweet tooth like I do, you’re going to need to add this recipe to your stash. I’ve tweaked this cookie into submission. The consistency is on point with a gooey inside and crispy edges. I give you…. the most normal tasting keto friendly/gluten free/sugar free chocolate chip cookie you’ll ever have!

As the summer begins to wind down, I finally have a moment to sit down and catch up on my ketogenic journey. Let’s discuss vacations, splurges, and weight gain, shall we?
