33 Easy Keto Dessert Recipes For The Holidays

The Holiday’s can be a rough time of year if you’re on a Gluten Free, Low Carb or Keto Diet but it doesn’t have to be. You may want to consider bringing a couple of Side Dishes and or Desserts that you can eat along with you to Family Dinners or Holiday Parties. It can really help make the dinner less dreadful. I could have cried before my first Thanksgiving after going Gluten Free. The thought of missing out on all the delicious things I had grown accustomed to eating was devastating. But I also remember how much it helped having those few things that I could eat. That’s why I put together this list. Hope It helps make your Holiday Season a littler easier!

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.

On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

11 Easy Keto Cheese Shell Recipes

June 30, 2019 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

11 Easy Keto Cheese Shell Recipes

Attention Cheese Lovers!!! These 11 Easy Keto Cheese Shell Recipes are for You! Cheese Shells are the Ultimate Keto Hack because they’re Unbelievably Easy to Make and they Taste Sooo Good! Who knew that Cheese was the Perfect Low Carb Replacement for so many things.

What Are Keto Cheese Shells?

What are keto cheese shells? They’re a tortilla or taco shell made of entirely cheese! They make a super tasty meal that can be made in 5 minutes, which makes them an absolute game-changer for low-carbers!

How to make a Keto Cheese Shell in the Oven:

Cover a pizza pan with Parchment Paper (NOT wax paper). Mix the shredded cheeses together, then evenly spread them over the parchment paper (in a circle shape). Bake the cheese shell for 5 minutes. Pour off any extra oil as soon as it comes out of the oven.

How to Make Cheese Shells in the Microwave:

Place cheese onto a piece of parchment paper. Then microwave for two minutes. Now you can either fold them or drape them over a large bowl to form a taco shell shape. … and put it in the refrigerator. Then wait two minutes.

Do Cheese Shells Have Carbs?

Yes, a small amount of carbs, most cheese has 1 carb per ounce. Many brands will list zero carbs because of FDA rules that say if a product is below 1 carb per serving it can be listed as zero even if it has .8 carbs. So, I generally count 1 ounce of cheese as 1 carb.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

7 Easy Gluten Free Recipes for Thanksgiving

I’d choose you again and again. Our Down Syndrome Story

August 9, 2016 by officially gluten free 2 Comments

I’d Choose You, Again and Again. Our Down Syndrome Story.

Hello, Friends, Family and Lovely Readers.

We’ve had a lot going on in our lives in the past few months.

We found out I was Pregnant again in November, which was very exciting news but also a little scary because we lost a baby girl at 24 weeks a few years ago. We didn’t think we had it in us to try again but changed our minds and decided to give it a try. I got pregnant fairly quickly and everything was going wonderfully.

We decided to do genetic testing this time around. I did a blood test (Quad Marker), at 16 weeks. The quad marker test looks for increased chance of birth defects but does not allow the definitive diagnosis of any conditions. The next week we got a call from the Doctors saying that our test came back positive. Based on the results, we were given a 1 in 8 chance of Down Syndrome. We decided to do an amino to find out for sure. This is where we found out we’re having a boy. They also found 2 soft markers for Down Syndrome, a small white spot on his bowel and a smaller than usual nose bone.

A few days later we got a call from the specialist with our results. Our baby boy does have Down Syndrome. The next few days were a blur of emotion and tears. My husband, who has been so wonderful through all of this, and I both knew we would love our little boy no matter what. Our son who is 8 is so excited to be a big brother. It doesn’t matter to him one bit that his little brother is a little bit different. He’ll love him the same way, maybe ever more.

After coming to terms with the fact that our baby has Down Syndrome, all the tears dried up, the sadness changed to worry. 50 % of babies with Downs Syndrome have heart problems. These can be mild problems that fix themselves or they can be very serious issues that require open heart surgery. As well as heart problems, babies with down syndrome can have many other serious health issues. We then had to wait 3 weeks because his heart wasn’t developed enough to tell if there were any issues until 22 weeks.

Fast forward to 22 weeks pregnant. We went in for what will be our 4th ultrasound, fingers crossed that he has no major problems. We did the scan and they found no issues at all. This was the absolute best news. Our boy will face many challenges in his life but heart surgery won’t be one of them. They also found liquid in his tummy which means he is able to swallow, which is another very good sign.

The rest of the pregnancy goes smoothly, until the 38th weeks, were they discover that the placenta isn’t feeding him as well as it should be. He’s a little bit smaller than he should have been for a 38 weeker. We were put on a list for immediate induction. The next day we were admitted into the High Risk Labor ward. Elijah was born with no complications at 4:35 am weighing 5 lb 13 oz.

He’s an absolute Perfect Baby. He barely ever cries and is the cutest little thing you have ever seen. We love him so much, and would choose him again and again.

Life is Good.

Until next time.

This Gluten Free Mac and Cheese tastes amazing. I do love my homemade recipe but you just can’t beat how quick, easy and inexpensive this Rice Pasta Mac and Cheese is. Annie’s does make a non gluten free version of this, so make sure you double check that you got the right one.

2. Sally’s Cocoa Crunch Cereal

I do like a lot of different Gluten Free Cereals but at $7 -$9 a box, it can be hard to justify buying it. Which is why i recommend getting this delicious cereal instead. It’s only $3.00 a bag. I found it at Walmart in the regular cereal section, not with the Gluten Free items.

3. Kaizen Whey Protein

I have mentioned this product in the past but I thought I’d share it again because I’ve had so may people ask for a good gluten free protein powder. I’ve tried many Protein Powders and none have come close to the taste of this Kaizen Protein Powder. It really tastes like a milkshake and it’s sweetened with Stevia. All of the flavors are delicious. Try my Vanilla Chai Protein Shake recipe. It’s really easy and tastes amazing.

6 Tips For Going Gluten Free

June 11, 2015 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

6 Tips For Going Gluten Free

If you need to go on a gluten free diet, stop putting it off and do it. Take it one day at time. Focus on the present moment. Don’t stress about the future and how you’re going to feel in certain situations. When those family dinners or work functions do come up, you just get through it. It can be hard at times, but feeling better is worth it. Besides, there’s usually a gluten free version or recipe you can make at home.

Websites like this one and many others like it, are a great resource for finding new recipes and reminding yourself that there are endless delicious options still. Try making a list of foods that you like that don’t contain gluten and you’ll notice over time that the list will grow larger and larger. It can be an exciting journey to discover a new world of healthier food, if you let it be. Just remind yourself of the good things about being gluten free, like feeling better and loosing weight.

Here’s a list of 6 Tips For Going Gluten Free, that can help keep you on track.

1. Stock Up On Food That You Can Eat

You’re more likely to eat the food your avoiding if you don’t have many choices. Keeping your fridge and cupboards full of delicious food that you can eat, will help keep you satisfied while you get used to your new diet. Focusing on the the things you can still eat, instead of thinking about what you can’t have is key to staying on track.

2. Find a Support System

Not everyone is understanding about your dietary restrictions, in fact people can be down right mean. Even our own families can be unsupportive at times. That’s why it’s important to find a group of people that you can talk to, that understand what you’re going through. There any many Gluten Free support groups through Facebook or Websites you can find online. There may even be some sort of support group set up in your city or town. Don’t go it alone, when there are so many people out going through the same thing as you.

3. Bring Food With You

Bring food with you, just in case there isn’t much or anything for you to eat. It can be hard going to parties, where they are serving the food you’re avoiding but having a snack in your bag or car, can really help . Getting used to packing a picnic lunch for road trips or any kind of outing is a great way to ensure that you will be fed.

4. Don’t Skip Meals

When you’re famished you’re more likely to eat the food your avoiding. Eating enough throughout the day, will help to keep you from making bad choices at night.

5. Drink Lots Of Water

This one seems obvious but it’s probably the most important. Drinking lot’s of water will help keep your stomach full and make you think about food less. Drink your 8 glasses a day and your skin, kidneys and overall digestion will thank you. If you’re not lucky enough to have delicious tap water where you live, get a water filter or buy bottled water, it really does make a difference in the amount of water you’ll drink. No one wants to drink icky tasting water.

6. Keep Busy

Keeping yourself busy will help keep your mind off food. So take up a new hobby or go out for a long walk. Whatever it takes to keep yourself occupied. Cravings do eventually go away. The trick is to do what you can in the meantime, to keep yourself happy. Try to stay positive and know that feeling better is worth it.
