Bringing "healthy" back

Wow....2 more weeks flew by and I failed to update again! Life seems to get in the way of updating sometimes and I don't like to sit down at the laptop if I can be with the kids so sorry this is delayed again!!  KETO is still going well and we are both doing great! The food choices are endless so it's not something that gets old fast. Yes we eat the same shakes daily and repeat meals but it's still just as good as any other time! :)  A few meals made the last 2 weeks include: Zucchini noodles with shredded chicken and homemade alfredo sauce 3 ingredient peanut butter cookies - these were not the best. I used granulated monkfruit sugar replacement as that's all I had and next time I would use powdered. One of our favorites again: sauteed veggies with kielbasa & shrimp Baked pesto chicken and sauteed zucchini & mushrooms Cheese stuffed meatloaf & wedge salads For Valentines Day we had NY strips topped with sauteed...

Sorry for the delay in this post....my laptop isn't working so I had to use Jeff's and it took me awhile to figure out what was going on with mine.  Week 4 & 5 are over....hard to believe we've been at this for over a month now!! Still going strong and loving it!!  A few of our meals the last 2 weeks : Turkey, salami & cheese unwich - we've made this probably 4 times over the last 2 weeks....makes a super great lunch leftover!  Parmesan crusted chicken with sauteed goodness!! Bacon wrapped chicken tenders again - one of our favs!!  Mississippi Pot Roast - this is AMAZING!!! We tried it again with a pork tenderloin and it was JUST as good!!  Oven baked fajitas with lettuce wraps. We had these when we stayed at a hotel over the weekend and they were MUCH better homemade!  Homemade cheese "chips" with a salsa/sour cream dipping sauce cheesy "pizza" sticks Brownies!! A bit dry so ne...

I can't believe we've been eating KETO for 3 weeks already!! It's actually been really easy and the meals have been delicious. It's not hard to figure out meals either which is great! I hate to even say it but I'm not sick of cooking just yet either....I'm sure that'll come soon! LOL Monday night I made Chicken Enchilada bowls and we had those with riced cauliflower. Jeff's not a fan of the cauli rice but I like it! :) Tuesday night we had Greek Lemon chicken with roasted cauliflower (yes again).  These pictures are backwards but Wednesday Jeff made Sausage Gravy for breakfast and biscuits. For supper we had cheese stuffed meatballs...they were good but Jeff cooked them a bit too long so they were a little "blackened".  Thursday night I had a much needed night out so Jeff was on his own for supper. I guess he sauteed some shrimp and zuchhini noodles and had that! The ladies and I went to Panera for supper and I got...

Week 2 is in the books!!! It gets easier and easier every day and the cravings aren't as rough this week. Bring on week 3!!! :) Here's a rundown of meals this week!! Let me know if you'd like any recipes! Monday for lunch I made sweet bell pepper nachos with the leftover taco meat we had. They were super good but a little higher in carbs than I wanted (didn't realize that until later).  Monday night we had Fathead pizza!! It was delicious and even the kids ate it! :) Tuesday was our baby's 3rd birthday so we were out and about for lunch and ended up having bunless burgers (still on track) and for supper we had "shake & bake" chicken and mashed cauliflower.  Wednesday night was Shrimp & Sausage skillet - SO delicious!!  Thursday night I made chicken bacon ranch topped with cheese and roasted cauliflower! Yum! Camden loves this meal!  Friday night we enjoyed ribeyes topped with sauteed shrimp & parm...

Week 1 is done and I must say it went a lot better than I expected and I didn't mind cooking much either! LOL We both weighed this am and are both down 7 lbs!! Yay!!! Here's to the next 70!! lol

Week 1 is over and I wanted to share what we had for dinner! Monday was baked chicken fajitas. SOO good!! I cut up the veggies and tossed them with garlic grapeseed oil. The chicken was cut up and tossed with the oil also and then topped with a bunch of cheese!  Tuesday was Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole. It was really good also but made SOOO much so next time I would halve the recipe!  Wednesday we had Pesto Chicken tossed with veggies and sundried tomatoes. AMAZING!!  Thursday we had Ranch porkchops and roasted veggies with cheese. SO easy, you put the pork chops in the crockpot with 3 T butter, 4oz cream cheese and 3T dried ranch.  Friday was Sesame Chicken and roasted veggies (see the trend?) LOL Cut up chicken with a sesame stirfry sauce. The veggies were roasted with oil and pink salt. Saturday we had Taco lettuce "boats" and all the fixings! These were SOO good and filling! Sunday was Shrimp & Scallops ba...

January 1 started a new year and also a new lifestyle for our family. So far the week has been going really well and we are enjoying the new recipes. I researched a lot before starting and had 4 weeks of supper meal plans and made grocery lists so I could shop and we’d have everything we’d need to start and be able to make this work without “flying by the seat of our pants”. I am excited to see where this takes us. Thank you for following along on our journey! :)
