Innovative Low Carb, Gluten-Free Recipes
Sometimes I think I am very clever; very clever indeed. And then the universe does its best to disabuse me of this notion and show me that my ever-so-clever ideas don’t always have the expected ever-so-clever outcomes. I suppose the universe is trying to take me down a peg or two, show me a little [...]
Father’s Day is Sunday and if you are at all like me, you haven’t planned a darn thing. You may have purchased a present online a little late in the game and it hasn’t arrived yet. You’ll probably grab your kids and head out on Saturday to grab a few small items for them to [...]
A healthy gluten-free banana cake, made extra delicious with shredded coconut and coconut oil. Sugar-Free. Today marks the last of my series of guest posts for Kelapo Coconut and I admit, I am quite sad about it. They’ve been wonderful to work with and I love coming up with coconut oil recipes. And last night, [...]
Sugar-free candied bacon with chipotle. The tastiest snack in all the world. Let’s face it, bacon is just about the best invention ever.

And in many cases, it [...]

After several chocolate-heavy recipes, I thought it was time to bring you some vegetables. It’s like when you’re a kid and you’ve eaten too much Halloween candy, and suddenly all you want is an [...]
Sweet mint chocolate cookie truffles coated in mint chocolate. Deliciously good for you! I seem to be on something of a chocolate kick lately. Well, in reality, I am always on a chocolate kick, because I love the stuff. Worship the stuff. This little brain of mine is always a-whirr with ideas for low carb [...]
A mistake in the kitchen led to one of the most delicious low carb treats I’ve ever made. A homemade candy bar packed with peanut butter, caramel and chopped peanuts. When I was growing up, there was a huge cultural divide between the US and Canada in one very important regard…candy bars. This divide was [...]
A tender, sweet low carb coffee cake filled with cinnamon and drizzled with cream cheese glaze. Sometimes I take a bit of one of my creations and I think to myself “I am really good at what I do”. That isn’t quite as self-aggrandizing as it may seem. Really, I am often just somewhat amazed [...]
