I am kicking myself over here for JUST NOW realizing how EASY IT IS TO MAKE YOUR OWN MAYO! I am a mayo girl. Always mayo for me over mustard. However, I have not been able to find a mayo made with avocado oil that I really like and I have tried them all! So I decided to make my own.

Stop right there!! Put down the can opener and slowly back away from the sugar filled (basically candy) canned cranberry sauce!!! I know it’s so easy to just open the can and put it on a plate. I mean it has the little ridges in it to make it easy to cut and everything. DON’T DO IT! I am here to tell you that the cranberry sauce is the easiest dish you will make during the holidays! It takes 10 minutes…maybe 5! AND… IT’S JUST AS EASY TO MAKE SUGAR FREE!!! It takes 3 ingredients and a pot.

Creme Brûlée is MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE DESSERT! Now there is no reason to give it up! A dessert that is usually filled with sugar can now be 100% KETO! This keto creme brûlée is amazing and in a taste test with a classic creme brûlée you cannot tell a difference.

It’s summer time! The lightening bugs are out. The 4th of July is right around the corner, and that means HOMEMADE ICE CREAM!! I remember my mom making ice cream all the time when I was growing up. The sound of the ice cream churning was almost more than we could handle! She would shout, “stay in or out,” as we would run through the door, check the status of the ice cream and then back out into the yard squealing with excitement.

Artichokes are one of my top 5 favorite foods to eat! There is not much better than a steaming hot artichoke dripping with lemon butter. They have been one of my favorites since I was a little kid. I am so fortunate that my mom always made us try everything and never made a different kid meal from what the adults ate. I really think this early introduction to food variety stretched my kid-size food comfort zone in a good way.

It’s that time of year that has me thinking about… EGGS! We are all about to take one of the most perfect foods in the world, dye them all sorts of colors and hide them in the grass! And yes, I will participate, because I love a good Easter egg hunt! But I actually think about eggs every single day. I eat at least one egg a day, most days I eat two. Why? BECAUSE EGGS ARE BASICALLY THE PERFECT FOOD!

This recipe is so easy and SO YUMMY! I order a couple whole chickens in my Butcher Box every month just so I can make this Chicken pot roast! I especially love this dish on a day when I have a lot going on.
