Kalamata Olive and Feta Dressing

Kalamata Olive and Feta Dressing is a Greek-style salad dressing with so much flavor. I love to serve it tossed with a green leaf salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, and red bell pepper. It's also great on a spinach salad or as a pasta salad dressing. The chopped up kalamata olives and crumbled feta cheese give this salad dressing lots of salty flavor. A little honey adds a touch of sweetness and the acidity comes from lemon juice and red wine vinegar. The flavors only get better with time. Olive and Feta Dressing will keep refrigerated for 1 week.

Chicken Salad with Avocado and Bacon

Chicken Salad with Avocado and Bacon is packed with protein and flavor. Keto-friendly and makes a filling lunch. This healthy, low carb chicken salad is so easy to make and a very small portion will fill you up since it is loaded with protein. I like to serve it on a bed of butter lettuce. The avocados provide so much creaminess that you hardly need any mayo, in fact, you could leave it out all together. Avocados are one of my favorite foods and they are so healthy.

Healthy Apple Coleslaw

Healthy Apple Coleslaw is coated in a sweet and tangy yogurt dressing. This creamy coleslaw is a must at your picnics and cookouts. Healthy Apple Coleslaw would pair great with Healthy Crock Pot BBQ Pulled Chicken or Maple Mustard Chicken Thighs.

I love my mayonnaise and find straight up Greek yogurt adds too much tartness. A combination of honey and apple cider vinegar adds plenty of sweet tart flavor. This easy coleslaw has lots of ...

This Spicy Sausage and Caramelized Onion Breakfast Casserole is one of my favorite low carb/keto breakfasts. The sweetness of the caramelized onions are what really make this such an awesome breakfast casserole. I have to push myself to come up with different ways to turn eggs into low carb breakfasts.

This low carb casserole reheats well for at least 3 days. It has all the things ...

Air Fryer Jalapeno Popper Hasselback Chicken

Air Fryer Jalapeno Popper Hasselback Chicken is a super spicy low carb meal with tons of cheese and bacon. Only 5 ingredients are needed to make this gluten-free, keto friendly meal. This low carb chicken is so easy to make. Just cut slits across the chicken breasts. You'll stuff a mixture of cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and pickled jalapenos into the slits. Next you'll air fry the chicken for about 15 minutes. Cooking times can vary between air fryers so use the cooking time as an estimate. I have both the Power XL Air Fryer and the Ninja Air Fryer and use them regularly. ...
