It’s So Fluffy, I’m Gonna Die!

Want to make your head explode? I have come up with a recipe for cheesecake that is both dense AND fluffy at once. /Pause for gasp/ That's right, folks!... Okay, but in all seriousness, I think I figured it out! One of the main characteristics of a traditional New York style cheesecake is that it … Continue reading It’s So Fluffy, I’m Gonna Die!

Let’s Buck(eye) The Norm!

Buckeyes. I'm not sure if they're a North Eastern United States thing, if they're made elsewhere but under a different name, or if everyone knows what they are. I'll assume that SOMEONE out there doesn't know what exactly I'm talking about, so I'll explain. Buckeyes or Buckeye Balls are a truffle like version of a … Continue reading Let’s Buck(eye) The Norm!

Pe-can you give me a slice of your time?

Low Carb Pecan Pie. The (in my opinion) ULTIMATE Christmas recipe to be tackled! I LOVE pecan pie, but I haven't had it in years due to the fact that it's sugar, sugar and more sugar. However, I had a request to come up with a good low carb recipe for one this year, so … Continue reading Pe-can you give me a slice of your time?

Low Carb PB Cup, I eat you up. Let’s have a Party!

While making various baked goods the other day I was thinking of ways to incorporate some of my new favorite bariatric products into recipes.

Party (Mix) on, Wayne!

For many of us, this time of year not only includes a lot of sweets and baked goods, but an old familiar friend of a snack: Chex Party Mix™. If you're on a low carb diet of any kind, this snack is, unfortunately, anything but a friend. While you may think that making something consisting … Continue reading Party (Mix) on, Wayne!

Talk to the hand, ’cause it’s full of granola!

You read right, granola on a blog dedicated to bariatric friendly life! This granola is special though; it's entirely grain-free and low carb! One of the biggest things I've found lacking in my diet since I first had bariatric surgery is texture. Everything is so mushy! If I want that crispy crunch, it's either really … Continue reading Talk to the hand, ’cause it’s full of granola!

I Tiramis-You…

Okay guys, I'm super excited about this recipe. This is a bit of a departure from the rest of the Holiday Survival dessert recipes. Instead of cookies or candies, tonight I have Tiramisu Brownies for you! This recipe combines a low carb, fudgey brownie recipe with a ricotta custard topping. I will admit that the … Continue reading I Tiramis-You…

Get it?... Cookie though? Cookie dough?.... Note to self: puns aren't funny if you have to explain them. Now where's the window so I can throw this rule out of it and continue in my ways?Moving on... Peanut butter cookies. These babies right here are why I feel so bad for people with peanut allergies (and … Continue reading Dat Cookie, Dough….

Let’s Get The Meatball Rolling…

This post is a little off course for most people when it comes to Christmas foods, but at the same time I know a lot of people have a tradition of eating Italian food at their Christmas celebrations. Whether you have Italian heritage or it's just a tradition started somewhere down the line in the … Continue reading Let’s Get The Meatball Rolling…

Let’s Share The Love…

With the Holidays upon us, I'm in the spirit of sharing and caring. Now, granted, I tend to be like this all year round, but any excuse to do some more, right? You might have noticed from some of my other posts that I'm big on sharing recognition for the other health type bloggers out … Continue reading Let’s Share The Love…
