I love to use this on chicken. I’ll marinade chicken in this and then when I go to cook the chicken, take the leftover marinade and cook it down with some grape tomatoes and top with mozzarella cheese and put that on top of the cooked chicken for a delicious caprese-style chicken. This makes aContinue reading “Balsamic Marinade / Dressing”

Pork Green Chili

But for this recipe, it just means I’m omittingContinue reading “Keto Zuppa Toscana (Olive Garden Copycat)”

This is one of the few recipes I’ve actually used sugar in. Sorry, not exactly low-carb, unless you have a good sugarlike substitute at the ready and are willing to risk it. Or you just omit the sugar and just enjoy the caramelized onion cream sauce. Whichever suits your fancy. Sugar or not, I reallyContinue reading “Crispy Chicken with Sweet Caramelized Onion Cream Sauce”
