Sugar Free Eggnog (Boiled Custard)
No need to avoid eggnog this Christmas season just because you are avoiding sugar! I LOVE eggnog, or as we call it in the south, boiled custard. This recipe is easy to make and will even have the most enthusiastic eggnog connoisseur asking for the recipe! Staying low carb during the holidays is not always easy but it is totally possible! This yummy nog is sugar free and full of flavor!
Keto Old Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream
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.
Iron Skillet Artichokes
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.
Chicken Balsamic Pot Roast
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.
