Keto Spiced Butter Pecans

I love pecans, which are a great source of manganese, copper, and other essential vitamins and minerals. A handful of these rich and flavorful roasted pecans is a perfect holiday fat bomb! Delicious as-is, or make a tasty topper for healthy pie, squash soup, sugar-free ice cream, or my n’oatmeal, or chia pudding recipes (search on blog). Enjoy!

Cinnamon Spice “N’Oatmeal”

I used to eat oatmeal almost daily for bfast for years, till I learned it can spike blood sugar and promote an inflammatory response. But I was jonesin’ for a tasty warm bowl of breakfasty goodness, so I came up with this tasty recipe using spaghetti squash instead of oats as a filling grain-free alternative. Different vibe but I dug it, let me know what you think :)

Herbed Crustless Quiche (“Squiche”)

Need a healthy and tasty meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner? I got you. Quiche is delicious morning, noon or night, and this grain-free healing and hearty dish always satisfies. I like to serve with a side of sweet potato home fries for bfast or brunch, and a mixed greens veggie salad for lunch or din. Enjoy!

Spaghetti Squash Casserole (“Squasherole”)

I adore spaghetti squash, and this casserole is an easy and delicious one dish meal, loaded with clean protein, good fat and healthy carbs. I even like it better the next day, once it’s “set up," served cold! Dried herbs are convenient, but fresh ones make this dish super special.

Squash Cakes

I've been loving spaghetti squash lately since I've been following a lower-carb personalized gut healing protocol from Viome (viome.com/tcd), and these squash cakes are tasty little bites of fried goodness. They can be a little messy, so make sure your skillet is well-oil/buttered. Enjoy!
