I love food. But I also love being fit and sticking to my medical goals. So, I like to get creative in the preparation of healthy meals so that I don't get bored, and that healthy food stays enjoyable. I get *most* if not all of my recipes from Pinterest, then tweak them a bit for Ketosis if I need to (swap flaxmeal or almound flour for flour, stevia for sugar, coconut oil for vegetable oil, cauliflower for potatoes, etc) Check out my "Swap THIS for THAT" Page! All pictures are of my creations, but each picture is linked to the original recipe (before my changes).
Broiled Asparagus
Asparagus is my daily/weekly staple. No recipe here, persay. Just plop a tbsp of grassfed butter on top, add some seasoning, pop in oven for 15 minutes at 350, then broil for 2-3 minutes. Delish!
Healthy & Clean Recipes
Bulletproof Coffee
Simple: Coffe + 1 tbsp Coconut Oil and 1 tbsp grassfed butter OR 1 tbsp heavy whipping cream. Blend in Ninja while coffee is steaming hot and drink!

BLT "Salad in a Jar"
Lunches for the week; and SO many different options and flexibilty to make them all unique!
Dehydrated Zuchinni & Sweet Potato "Chips
(Sweet Potato Chips are NOT low carb, but are clean) Also, onions!
Egg White "Muffin Tin" Omelets
SO simple with a carton of Egg Beaters.
Salmon, Zuchinni, & Jalapeno Dip
No recipe; zucchinis sliced up thin with choice of seasoning, salmon with a siracha/greek yogurt sauce, and a homemade chuy's dip (healthy version)
Spaghetti Squash Alfredo
A great veggie pasta substitute!
"Meals for the Week"
Prepare them ALL on Sunday; don't touch the kitchen for 7 days!
Zoodles!
Zucchini, butternut squash, jicama, cucumber, and carrot can all be turned into noodles instead of pasta! Low carb, clean, AND filling. Recipe uses a julienne peeler if you don't have this awesome spiralizer tool.
Farmer's Market Local Love
I have tried to get a majority (if more or less affordable) of my produce from the Nashville Farmer's Market. Support local, and eat fresh and clean!
Roasted Bell Pepper Nachos
No special recipe here; just use cut up bell peppers as the "nacho chips" and load'em up however you normall would! Broil in oven.
Buffalo Cauliflower
A good veggie-alternative to buffalo chicken if you're watching protein quantity or meat consumption
Quest Bars
These are so great as a treat, or as a staple if you're training. Basically all the bars' carbs come from fiber. Pop in the microwave for no more than 7 seconds for a gooey treat.
Carbmaster Yogurt
Kroger Carbmaster Yogrt: 10/$4 all the time. How is that even real? ~4 net carbs per yogurt cup, coupled with babybel cheese for a quick low carb snack
Lettuce Wrap Burger
So simple: make up your favorite burger ingredients, and swap out the bun for a lettuce wrap! Iceberg lettuce leaves are my favorite bun substitution.
Flaxseed Meal crust Pizza
There's 7 carbs IF you eat the ENTIRE pizza. We made the pizza and each HALF turned into 2 meals each for us. That's 1.75 carbs PER SERVING (plus a couple extra if you use tomato sauce). We used 0 Carb alfredo, cheese, and pepperoni.
Coconut Oil
So, not a recipe persay, but use it. Use it to cook vegetables, on top of fish, on top of chicken, on zoodles, etc. It's amazing!
Low Carb Chips!
!Tam-x-ico's! Low Carb Tortilla Wraps (found in fridge section, 5 net carbs per wrap). Cut up into triangles with pizza cutter. Place on non-stick pan. Spray with coconut oil spray. Sprinkle with salt. Throw in oven for 5 minutes on 400. Serve with your favorite low carb dip! Boom!
