Roasting is key There are a ton of loaded cauliflower casseroles on pinterest and they all sound amazing but for me cauliflower is at its best when it is roasted. I love the little bits of charred cauliflower with the cheese and bacon in this casserole. The extra step of roasting adds another layer of flavor this already delicious casserole. Bacon, please A loaded casserole would not be loaded without the addition of bacon. Right? I mean the best loaded baked…

Espresso Brownie Cookies
Happy 1st weekend of 2019. I cannot believe it is already almost a week into this new year. To celebrate making it through the week I made these Espresso Brownie Cookies. Now I know they are not KETO, but they are pretty amazing and a perfect treat before I jump back on the KETO train next week. Brownies or Cookies? Do you ever have a hard time deciding between a brownie or a cookie? Yes? No? Well I do…except not anymore. This cookie/brownie is everything you love about both in one quick recipe.

Cranberry Pistachio White Chocolate Shortbread
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE shortbread. Anytime there is a shortbread option on a cookie platter that is the one I go for first. There is just something so decadent in each buttery bite. So much yummy I am a happy girl with just a plain shortbread (like this one), but for the Holidays I decided to amp it up a bit with a little extra something. To start with I wanted a little something tart and pretty so I added in one of my favorite holiday tasted, dried cranberries. Next for a little crunch I went with another favorite, pistachio’s. I love how they taste and how they look,…

KETO Pumpkin Muffins
Muffins are my weakness…especially pumpkin muffins. One of my biggest fears when I went on KETO was I would have to give up my muffins, I mean they are normally not low carb. Thankfully that fear was put to rest with these AMAZING KETO Pumpkin Muffins. The Swirl is EVERYTHING It is no secret that I am all about anything and everything pumpkin spice. As much as I love a good plain pumpkin muffin to make these a little extra special I added a cream cheese swirl to the top. Isn’t just about anything better with a little cream cheese swirl? I kept it super simple with just cream cheese,…

Roasting is key To really amp up the flavor in this Cauliflower Mash I roasted the cauliflower prior to mashing it. Roasting it really helps to add…
