There’s no need to eat out, when eating in can be better!
Friday night at our house is Pizza Night. Nothing unusual about that, except we are gluten free and low carb in our family. We all started the Ketogenic lifestyle on January first. So pizza night is generally an experiment with low carb crust recipes and ideas. Today I say an article discussing KFC’s Fried Chicken …
Well, it has been a while since I posted something new. I have not been cooking as much as I have been under the weather for an extended time, but I am finally getting better. So back in the kitchen I went! I am preparing to return to my ketogenic diet so through the month …
