Cauliflower and Cheese (Keto alternative to Macaroni & Cheese)

Sourdough Bagels… so easy and delicious!

You may not know this but January 15th was National Bagel Day and we celebrated by making some sourdough bagels for the first time and they did not disappoint. I have always been a little intimidated by bagels and pretzels but now I know it is actually pretty easy to make the bagels so the pretzels will be next on my list… hopefully before National Pretzel Day.

Best Pork Loin

I needed a quick recipe to throw together the other day and I happened upon this recipe HERE. I was totally exhausted after working so long in the new pantry and I really didn’t want to fuss with a lot of ingredients so this was perfect!

Hubby Approved Surprise Salted Caramel Cupcakes

I’ve made this recipe several times now, the first time being at Sweet Shyanne’s 2nd birthday party, and people have not stopped talking about them!

Mr. Awesome has jumped on the keto/THM bandwagon and has been asking for these again and again… the kids beg for them as well so I guess I just need to start making a double batch of them. The first time I saw these cupcakes mentioned was in the Trim Healthy Table cookbook and I thought some silly thoughts about the ‘surprise’ ingredient but I’m so glad I decided to give them a try and I think you will be too!
