One of my favorite chefs! His book “Jamie at home” came out in 2007 and I bought it right away… It has been used ever since and is filled with donkey ears, sticky notes and sticky pages. I love the fact most of his dishes are inspired by Italy and use fresh, seasonal ingredients. ThisContinue reading “Jamie Oliver’s Tomato Salad”

Frittata with Kale, Mushroom and Ghee
I am convinced that Ghee makes everything better… seriously, it’s my new bacon. For those of you who don’t know what Ghee is: It’s clarified butter. But what does that mean? Ghee is butter but the water and milk solids have been removed. Therefor it has a slightly higher fat content gram for gram thanContinue reading “Frittata with Kale, Mushroom and Ghee”
Baked Egg in Avocado
Two staples in my household; eggs and avocados. We’re stuck inside because of the winter weather and that, of course, challenges me to use everything I have in my pantry and fridge first, before even thinking about going out for groceries. The people who have been following me for a while now, know that thisContinue reading “Baked Egg in Avocado”
Raspberry Chia Jam
When I initially started thinking about going low carb, or even keto, I made a rough plan of what food I was to cut out first, to create at least a START since giving your whole diet and therefor lifestyle a complete overhaul, can be really daunting. (and trust me, it was LOL). Over aContinue reading “Raspberry Chia Jam”
Epic Keto Lasagna

Crispy Boneless Chicken Thighs
While on keto, lots op people stay away from too much chicken since it’s low in fat and high in protein. However, chicken thighs are a more fatty part of the chicken and when you leave the skin on and sear them in tallow, ghee or oil, you get enough fat in your dish toContinue reading “Crispy Boneless Chicken Thighs”

Microwave Quick Bread
Now this title sounds appetizing… NOT! LOL. Nope, it didn’t to me either when I first saw it, but just as with mug cakes and all “shortcut” cooking recipes, it had to be tried and tested in my lab 😉 It turned out to be a winner! Nice and quick, only a few ingredients andContinue reading “Microwave Quick Bread”
Chicken Chowder
I love soup, although I have not been a fan of the creamy kind though. I lived in New England for a while (Middletown, RI) and of course there were many occasions that the infamous Clam Chowder was served. Also, not a fan (sorry!!!). Anyway, today I am posting a recipe that has everything inContinue reading “Chicken Chowder”
Turkey Pesto Meatballs
This is a recipe, albeit tweaked, that I got got from one of my favorite non keto cookbooks; “Weelicious” by Catherine McCord. (The recipe has been tweaked to adhere by our low carb standards though!) I bought it as soon as it came out in 2012 (when my youngest, Charlie, was born) and have beenContinue reading “Turkey Pesto Meatballs”
