Almond Butter "Milk Shake"

-
Here is another super simple one for you. So simple, I almost don't consider it a 'recipe' - It is literally just a combination of ingredients and a little blender action. The hardest part of this entire process is cleaning your blender afterwards.

The second thing I truly love about this 'recipe' is that you can swap out so many different parts to create a whole new flavor combination. One basic recipe creates SO many shakes. It's amazing.

THE BASICS:
  • 1Tbsp Almond Butter  (or any other nut butter your heart desires) 
  • 8oz Unsweetened Almond Milk  (or any other milk replacement you have on hand. Cashew is one of my favorites, to be honest)
  • Pinch of Xanthan Gum (can skip if you don't have this, but it helps with the milkshake texture) 
  • 15g Quest Cinnamon Crunch Protein Powder  (if it isn't obvious by now, you can certainly swap this out too. I just love this flavor in particular and think you should give it a shot!)
  • 6 Ice Cubes (This has proven to be the magic number for me, but I do use a different ice cube tray than most - so play around with this if your texture/consistency doesn't seem right!)
  • Stevia Drops to Taste

THE PROCESS:
Ready for this one?

  1. Add all ingredients to your blender. 
  2. Blend. 
  3. Pour into a glass of your choice.
  4. Maybe top it off with some ChocZero chocolate syrup? Some melted Peanut Butter? Some homemade whipped cream? 

The possibilities are endless!

Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies (Copycat Attempt)

As I mentioned over on my Instagram, I was attempting to copycat the cookies made by High Key. A request from another keto friend that I am sure you all know - Megan. Problem? I have never tried these cookies. From what I had seen and the ingredients listed on the package, it looks like they may be a keto version of a crunchy mini cookie along the lines of Keebler or Famous Amos. That is what I set out to make. That being said, I am really quite impressed with the first trial of this recipe. I am sharing the exact ingredients I used since that is the only way I have tried this recipe so far, but feel free to experiment and let me know how it goes. INGREDIENTS ½ Cup (52g) Almond Flour 2 Tbsp (15g) Lupin Flour ½ Scoop (8g) Perfect Keto Salted Caramel Collagen (can use KETOON for a discount if interested) 2 Tbsp Sweet Cream Butter 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil Egg Yolk ¼ Cup Brown 'sugar' (I make my own from Erythritol, Mapeline, and Stevia Glycerite) ¼ tsp Pink Salt ½ tsp

White Chocolate Bars

As I mentioned in my post on Instagram - I will not be taking full credit for this one. This is a mixture of a couple different recipes I found online. Both Maya from Wholesome Yum & The Traveling Pastry Hunter put in the time and effort to work out all the details the first time around, so I wanted to be sure to give them credit. That being said, I mixed them together due to the ingredients I had, my need for them to be stable at room temp, and possibly a little bit of laziness thrown in for good measure. I am including an "Tools" section this time as well, since I am pretty sure without the immersion blender this would not be as amazing as it is. If you try without it I would definitely be interested to hear how it goes! TOOLS: Double Boiler (or if you are like me, a pot and a glass bowl) Immersion Blender (also called stick blender I think?) Chocolate Molds (okay, you can totally line a baking sheet with wax paper and just spread it out there) INGREDIENT

Air Fried Chicken Drumsticks

This is another super simple meal idea that we recently fell in love with! You can switch this up so many ways - from the seasonings in the breading to the sauce you add on top. The possibilities are endless. (Those are my favorite recipes, if you have not yet learned that about me.) I should also mention that the breading mixture makes way more than you need for 3-4 drumsticks. I simply packed mine back up and used it to bread some veggies and some more chicken the following day. Feel free to half the recipe if you prefer. INGREDIENTS: 4 Chicken Drumsticks  Pickle Juice (enough to cover the drumsticks to brine) 20g Nutritional Yeast (roughly ¼ cup) ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese 1 tsp Garlic Powder Salt to taste (I just sprinkle some in the mix and call it a day) 1 Large Egg PROCESS: Add chicken drumsticks to a bowl (preferably one with a lid) and cover with pickle juice. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes. While waiting on the drumsticks, mix together all
