Ingredients & Substitutions This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for stuffed Halloween peppers, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options....

This fresh jicama tortillas recipe is just what you need to liven up your taco night! Unlike other keto tortilla or cheese taco shell recipes, this one is 100% veggies. And as great as low carb flours are, let’s face it — jicama nutrition content is higher than any low carb flour tortilla. Plus, the slight crunch and subtle sweetness in these jicama wraps actually works perfectly with many healthy Mexican recipes....

If there was one food I really miss on keto, it would probably be croissants… they bring back memories of our honeymoon in Paris, and let’s be real, making a flaky dough to be an adequate keto butter croissant substitute is very difficult. Which is why this keto croissant recipe took me seven tests to get right… but it was worth it! I’m not going to lie, the texture of these keto chocolate croissants isn’t exactly like a white flour version, but they are still absolutely delicious, with a buttery yeast dough and a creamy chocolate hazelnut center....

These low carb pigs in a blanket are made with high quality sugar-free hot dogs and a fathead dough “blanket”, for a keto version that tastes just like the original. People have been telling me for quite some time that they’ve been wrapping the dough from my keto bagel recipe around hot dogs. So, I wanted to share this keto pigs in a blanket recipe to show you exactly how to do it....

Bone-in vs. boneless skin-on lemon garlic chicken You can use both skin-on, bone-in and skinless, boneless chicken in this recipe. I find that bones protect the meat from drying out just as much as the skin does. Chicken breasts are especially good for this recipe. Skin-on chicken breasts are normally sold as split breasts, with rib bones attached. So, leave them on. I know, it’s easier to eat a boneless breast but I’ll a pick juicer meat over convenience any time....

Lola here! My mom gave me permission to take over her blog today so I could tell you all about our awesome weekend in Woodstock, New York. A few weeks ago, my humans parents (Mom says it’s rude to call them “humans”!) decided Mom was too stressed with working two jobs – they needed to go on a mini vacation! Usually that means that I get to go spend some time with my older humans that have a better house grandparents, but one of mommy’s friends said we could all go stay at this cabin in Woodstock, NY....

We got together at a friend’s house for a Memorial Day barbecue last week. With the sun shining, chicken and brats on the grill, and everyone hanging out in the backyard, it was the perfect way to spend an afternoon. Watching my little girl running through the bright green grass with the other children put a big smile on my face. Sometimes the simple things are all you need. Of course, any get-together is an excuse for me to try a new recipe....

If you’re looking to make breakfast smoothies for weight loss, add extra servings of fruits and veggies to your diet, need a balanced smoothie for post-workout recovery, or just want a yummy, filling way to nourish your body, this banana oatmeal smoothie recipe is one you’ll want to sip over and over again. If you’re new to the smoothie game, it’s also a delicious, approachable place to start. Personally, I love green smoothies (especially this Kale Pineapple Smoothie and this Apple Avocado Smoothie), but I recognize that those who are newer to the smoothie game might want to tiptoe their way in a bit (this Apple Smoothie is another great place to start)....

I participated in Mom Blog Tour Winter Fancy Food Show (#MomBlogTourFF) on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Saffron Road products to facilitate my review, but my opinions and the recipe are my own. Who’s ready to partaaaay? ☀️☀️☀️ The weather is finally amazing here in the East Coast and all I can think about is being outside. I know I will regret saying that when it’s 100 degrees outside and I’m huge and about to pop, but for now I will enjoy and the barbecuing and picnicking that I can!...

Meltingly tender pulled pork slow cooked with Mexican spices and citrus juices, then crisped up at the edges in the oven just so, carnitas are: Make-Ahead Marvelous. You can prep the recipe hours in advance and leave it warming in the slow cooker, or fully cook the day before and reheat.Big-Batch Beautiful. Whether you need to feed a crowd, stock your freezer, or just love leftovers (ME!), you’ll be pleased with this recipe’s generous yield....

Ben spent the better part of August and a chunk of September camped out at his office, which meant that for many evenings, it was just Teddy and me at home for dinner. Since the pooch doesn’t eat people food (unless it’s something that fell on the floor, in which case, fair game!), that’s 50% of the usual consumers in a kitchen that produces three to four new recipes a week....

I do a little happy dance when the first pint of real strawberries hits stores. This dance is usually accompanied by a little squeal, and you can bet that an easy-to-make, healthy strawberry dessert (or Strawberry Bread) is soon to follow. Often, it’s fresh Strawberry Pie or Strawberry Oatmeal Bars, which are a healthy version of strawberry crisp bars and the most popular dessert on my site.Other times, it’s Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake (not because it’s gluten free, but because it is delicious) or Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie....

With an incredible crispy crunch and light, sweet flavor, these sugar-free keto meringue cookies are one of the most impressive desserts you can make with just 4 ingredients! They have a similar prep method to cloud bread and the topping on my keto lemon meringue pie, but with a few key differences that give them extra crunch. Can You Make Meringue Without Sugar? Yes, you can definitely make meringue sugar free!...

My new favorite marinade for grilled chicken is this Thai inspired marinade that is quick to prepare, very tasty and relatively healthy. I think it rivals my all-time favorite Killer Chicken Thigh Marinade. It’s that good! It has just the right amount of sweet, savory and spicy and appeals to a wide audience, adults and children alike. This marinade is grill-friendly and won’t burn very quickly, but since there is a little bit of sugar in it I suggest that you keep an eye on the chicken while grilling and flip the meat or move it to a less hot area of the grill as soon as the surface starts to get too dark....

Happy grilling season! I can’t believe Independence Day is in just a couple of weeks. Summer is flying by. One of my favorite ways to enjoy it is with a good barbecue. Especially when juicy burgers are involved! And even though I love these juicy hamburgers on the grill right now, you can make them as stovetop burgers all year round, too. I’ll show you how to make burgers on the stove and on the grill, so you can decide how you want to do it....

A creamy, colorful skillet of whole wheat pasta noodles, vibrant sun-dried tomatoes, juicy pieces of herby chicken breast, and fresh spinach, all wrapped in a velvety cheese sauce, this Italian spin on the ultimate comfort classic will have members of your family jostling for extra servings. Now that Ben and I are both working from home full time, figuring out lunches took a few weeks of adjustment (seriously, we’re out of food, AGAIN?...

Love classic French recipes? 🇫🇷 Then you’ll also like my recipes for Coq au Vin, Boeuf Bourguignon, Gougeres, French Onion Soup and Poulet à la Moutarde. Creme Brulee is one of my favorite recipes to order when dining at a restaurant. I just can’t resist it! But that also means that I’ve had my fair share of “meh” creme brulee. Runny, bland, brulee topping not crackly enough, different flavor twist gone wrong (I’m looking at you matcha), you name it!...

After reviewing all the new recipes that we shared this year, it was clear that 2021 was the year of the air fryer and the basics. You loved following along with my growing air fryer obsession (I tried everything from Air Fryer Shrimp to Air Fryer Grilled Cheese).You appreciated recipes that are simple and timeless (hello, chicken breast all-the-ways). While we saw a bit more normalcy in our lives and kitchens this past year (AKA less bread baking and pantry staples), it was still a challenge....

Whether you grow zucchini, have neighbors who share their wealth, or (like me) go crazy at the farmers market with dreams of Healthy Zucchini Muffins dancing in your head, at one point or another this summer, you are going to end up with Way. Too. Much. Zucchini. Zucchini is a fantastic fast, healthy side dish, but by the time you’ve eaten multiple rounds of Grilled Zucchini, Sautéed Zucchini, and Roasted Zucchini, it’s time for something new....

With its stunning countryside and chilly winters, Finland is the ideal place to spend the Holidays. You’re all but guaranteed a white Christmas, after all! Don’t worry, there’s no blood sausage or tar-flavored sweet on this list (yes, really). Instead, you’ll find yummy meatballs, spiced wine, and, of course, Christmas cookies. Hyvää joulua ja onnellista uutta vuotta! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 1. Joulutorttu (Finnish Christmas Star Cookies) If you ever get the chance to visit Europe during the holidays, I highly recommend making a trip to the north, specifically, to Finland....
