I was just browsing and came across this site and thus far I like what I am seeing and will definitely try these wonderful recipes.
Cool site. Love what you are doing here.
I just found you! I can’t wait to start making your beautiful food!!!
Making stuffed mushrooms for first time. A little scared😵
Yum! How did they turn out, Robin? Hope you enjoyed them!
Sugar substitutes: I’ve been using coconut sugar for sometime now. Thoughts?
Coconut sugar is still sugar. If you look at your coconut sugar’s packaging, its nutrition label should show you that it isn’t any better than regular sugar. I recommend using erythritol or erythritol-based blends like Swerve or Lakanto. I also recommend that you read my low carb guide, which goes over how to read nutrition labels and figure out what you can eat.
I am brand new to this. I find a craving for something sweet after all the meat and veg’s. I am going to make the lemon drops as soon as my sugar sub gets here. This site looks great. Thanks
I’m new to low carb ideals and I’ve never weighed items before so what’s the best scales to use
This is a great food scale on Amazon at http://amzn.to/2BqVogz and you can find more kitchen and low carb products that I recommend on my Amazon page at https://www.amazon.com/shop/savory.tooth/
Hi Julia! My mom and I are new to Keto. We’ve just decided today, that as of December 1st, we’re starting Keto. I have no idea how to start this Keto thing, but I know it works. I’ve got a co-worker that has lost over 150lbs. I’m gathering information and looking for different items to make. Thank you, for your awesome site!J
That’s great!! If you haven’t already, I recommend checking out https://www.savorytooth.com/how-to-start-low-carb-diet/ and developing a meal plan because it will help you stick to your goals. And if you are ever tempted to cheat, just remember that nothing ever tastes as good as you remember, including whatever was your personal indulgence. Good luck!
Julia,
I travel quite a bit and have a hard time staying in ketosis. I take along keto friendly snacks to each while traveling but most of them are cost prohibitive for me. Do you have any recipes so I can make my own snacks that will keep while traveling? Nutrition bars, nut combinations or other suggestions.
Thank you!
Do you have access to a Costco membership? Their selection of macadamia nuts, almonds, walnuts, and pecans are more affordably priced than any other place I’ve seen. They also have some keto-friendly snacks like Whisps cheese crisps, protein bars (~$1 each), sugar-free beef jerky, and sugar-free beef sticks. I’ve experimented with making my own nutrition bars, but making them shelf-stable with low-cost ingredients is difficult.
Do you have a brand for protein bars at Costco? Seems all are high carb/sugar
They are called “Kirkland Signature Protein Bars” and available in Cookie Dough and Brownie at my local warehouse. Something like 2 g net carbs (subtracting both fiber and sugar alcohols) per bar. I’m not a huge fan of the texture, but some people love it. The other caveat is that its fiber comes from tapioca starch, which appears to affect my ability to stay in ketosis. https://www.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature-Protein-Bars%2C-Chocolate-Chip-Cookie-Dough%2C-20-count%2C-2-pack.product.100423971.html
I make cheese crisps with sharp cheddar squares and a bit of ranch powder. I have also used taco seasonings. Line a cookie sheet with parchment, space out 3 rows of 4. Sprinkle with powder , if wanted. Bake 300 degrees for 20 min. Cool on cooling rack. Place in paper bag with paper towel when crisp. I also have added pepperoni to these to spice em up. They stay good on a shelf for several days.
That sounds like a delicious snack, similar to my parmesan crisps but easier to make. Thanks for sharing — I’m going to try this!
Your directions weren’t clear for me.. what do you space out on the cookie sheet 3 to 4 rows?
Google Keto Candied Pecans. They are super easy to make. I make ones without egg whites which makes it even easier to make. Yummy and portable! : ) I also just tried a Keto Puppy Chow that would be a good on the go sweet treat.
Julia,
Just made your savory Tofu Stir Fry. So delicious!
Awesome! I’d appreciate it if you could leave a review on the tofu recipe post.
Hi I’m type 2 diabetic and I’m currently doing 24 hour fasts only having a high fat meal but still crave something nice do you have any suggestions
If you’re looking for something sweet, I recommend lemon cheesecake fat bombs: https://www.savorytooth.com/lemon-fat-bombs/
For something savory, what about pan-seared salmon or swordfish? They’re quick to prepare and delicious to eat.
I’m wondering if organic soy milk is ok for keto diet?
Depends on the brand and if it’s unsweetened or not. Check the nutrition label to calculate net carbs. Ideally, it should be under a few grams per 1 cup (8 oz) serving.
Hi Julia,
I’ve just started my keto journey today and are emptying the food cupboards of grains and pasta etc, and off to shop for keto only food…. I will miss rice though, thank you for a easy and straight forward and organised resource.
I’m 52 ,New Zealand male and weigh 104 kgs and workout 3 times a week yet I cant seem to lose these extra kilos so I’m giving this a go ,I will keep you updated on my progress ,
Kind regards
Clay.
Sounds like a great start, Clay. I look forward to hearing about your progress!
Hey Clay, for what it’s worth – I’m your doppelganger 🙂 52, Irish and was 103Kg before I tried Keto – same issue as you, couldn’t shift the kilos working out. It does work – I lost 6Kg pretty quickly and have kept it off despite falling off the Keto wagon several times (I love my glass of wine at night). Keto also sorted out all my digestive problems, I’ve never felt better. Best of luck with it.
Am starting my journey today on the keto diet I was wondering how are you making out on yours?
I have problems with diets that have mushrooms artichokes or coconut, or pineapple, or raisins. Im highly allergic to all those foods.
Pineapples and raisins are pretty unusual to find in low carb recipes, given their high sugar content, so that’s not an issue. As for mushrooms/artichokes/coconut, you’ll just have to watch out for them and avoid recipes that contain them, which shouldn’t be too difficult.
My aunt just shared your page with me. What a well organized, beautiful resource. Thank you!
Thanks, Jaime! I hope you find the site to be useful.
Have just subscribed and I am so excited to try your amazing recipes. Breakfast has always been a challenge and looking forward to trying your blueberry muffins
Thank you, Karen! Hope you enjoy the blueberry muffins — one of my favorites.
Julia, I’m just starting the Keto plan.
I’ve been reading everything I can for the help and understanding the program. Thank you so much for all the information and recipes.
I’ve read the MCT OIL advised to use..
do you recommend this? If so which MCT oil would you recommend. And on your wonderful shopping list you listed protein powder.. Which protein powder do you recommend?
Thank you so much for your help.
Hi Trish! For most people, I don’t recommend MCT oil because I don’t think it’s necessary. Also, you can get the same benefits from simply using coconut oil. If you’re still interested in using MCT oil, then I recommend getting the powdered form because it’s easier to travel with and also easier to mix into drinks. If you haven’t used MCTs before, start off with a small amount because it’s known to cause some upset stomach issues.
As for protein powder, I recommend the brand Isopure. They have some flavors that are zero carb, and it’s just whey protein isolate.
Hope that helps!
I have just discovered you and subscribed. I need some quick on the go breakfast ideas….the keto friendly milkshakes are catching my eye…what are your favourites?
The milkshake smoothie and the blueberry muffins are probably my favorites.
I’m new to the keto diet. I’m looking forward to eating healthier, and losing weight. I can’t wait to try some of the recipes.
I’m excited to try your 4-ingredient Keto Ice Cream. I looked at other recipes, but many said Keto but were not. I also signed up to receive your recipes by email. Thank you.
You’re welcome. Hope you enjoy the recipes!
I am just starting and ordered the magnesium supplements you recommend but I’m wondering if I also need other vitamins like B complex or things like turmeric ? Thank you! I’m excited to get started.
Personally, I only take magnesium supplements and try to get other things (like potassium) from the foods I eat. It’s hard to say what you should take because everybody is different and I’m not a medical professional who can provide advice. Let me know if you have any other questions, and best of luck on getting started!
I ordered the Nutritional yeast by Braggs. It has the B vitamins and you can just sprinkle it on your food. It has a cheesy flavor.
I just subscribed because your blog appears to be exactly what I need to continue my Keto success. I am excited to discover new recipes and ideas. Thank you!
Awesome. Thanks for subscribing, Sandy!
I just made the lemon cheesecake fat bombs and wow are they delicious! I can’t wait to check out more recipes on here! Thanks!
Do you have a good keto recipe for a loaf bread to use for sandwiches and toast?
I don’t. The only “bread” type recipes I have are cornbread, bagels, and biscuits.
Am getting ready and eager to begin the keto or low carb eating plan!
Will begin on Tues.
Good luck, Anna 🙂
I made the tuna broccoli casserole my gosh it was delish me and my bf loved it

I will be making this Beef Broccoli in the near future. My favorite all time stir fry is Mongolian Beef. I’m very excited to make it soon!

Ok, so I was looking for a cheese cake/pumpkin recipe to take to my mother in laws yesterday. I luckily had all the ingredients for your low carb pumpkin cheesecake bars in my pantry. Good thing!! They were a hit! So delicious! I was asked for the recipe about 10 times by guests last night and by my coworkers this morning who have been enjoying the leftovers! I will definitely make these again!
Thank you so much!
I love it when I have all of the ingredients for a recipe. Glad they came out so well 🙂
I’ve already shared your blog with two people and I just found it today. This is all great stuff! thank you!
Thanks Hollis 🙂
Great recepies!😋
Your photos on Instagram all look delicious. Thank you for taking and sharing with us!
Thanks Doreen!! 🙂
I’ve been looking into keto diet meals. I literally just want someone to plan it out for me bc I’m so busy to do it myself.lol. Is this something you do? Give me a meal plan and a grocery list for the week. That is all i need. LoL. I just signed up on your site. Hopefully what you have is straight forward and something I can work with.thanks!!!
That sounds like something I could easily do. How many meals do you want per week, like 5 dinners for M-F? And which day of the week do you want your meal plan to be emailed to you?
Your Instagram photos are superb !
