My Recipes
Between a book full of family recipes and my ever-growing rotation of Keto-friendly recipes, I needed somewhere to keep these that I could access from anywhere. With the power of YAML files and my home server, I can now check the ingredients on my phone at Trader Joe's before I check out, and you can, too!

"Bageled" Eggs
Ingredients:
- Eggs, hard-boiled - 2
- Cream cheese - 2 oz
- Seasoning of choice (try bagel seasoning, cayenne powder, garlic powder, and salt)
Steps:
- Peel hard boiled eggs and discard shells.
- Slice eggs in half and remove yolks. Place yolks into a small bowl.
- Add cream cheese to bowl and mash with a fork until combined with the yolks. Optional: you can add your seasonings during this step or sprinkle them over top. I would personally add cayenne, garlic powder, and salt (any powdered seasoning you want to use that won't get ruined by the mashing) during this step.
- Using a spoon, form the yolk and cream cheese mixture into balls and add it to open egg halves, or simply spoon it into the open egg halves, evenly distributing it between the 4 halves.
- Sprinkle the top with desired seasonings and serve (I used everything seasoning on top since adding it during the mashing step would break up the little seeds and onion pieces. Plus it looks nicer in my opinion).

Cheesy Cauliflower Bake
Ingredients:
- Cauliflower, in bite-sized pieces - 1 large head
- Salt - 1 tsp (to salt the water to boil the cauliflower)
- Butter - 2 tbsp
- Parmesan, coarsely grated - 1/2 cup
- Sharp cheddar, grated - 1 1/2 cups (Yellow or white shard cheddar recommended)
- 3-cheese blend, grated - 1/2 cup
- Black pepper
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
- We used an 8.5"" X 11"" baking dish for this recipe. Spray baking dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Bring water to boil in a pot that''s large enough to hold all the cauliflower.
- While the water comes to a boil, cut up the cauliflower, cutting away and discarding the core and leaves and cutting cauliflower florets into bite-sized pieces.
- When the water boils, add the salt and cut-up cauliflower, turn heat down to a low boil, and cook cauliflower 5 minutes.
- Drain cauliflower very well in a colander placed in the sink.
- When cauliflower is well-drained, put it into a bowl (or back into the pan you used to cook in) and add the butter. Stir to melt the butter and coat the cauliflower.
- Then add the coarsely-grated Parmesan, sharp cheddar, and a little black pepper if desired.
- Put the mixture into the baking dish and top with the three-cheese blend.
- Bake 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is cooked through and the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Serve hot.
- This will keep in the fridge for a few days and reheats well.

Chewy Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
- melted salted butter - 1/2 cup + 2 tsp
- sukrin brown sugar sweetener - 6 tbsp
- allulose sweetener - 5 tbsp [can substitute with Splenda / Monkfruit sweetener / Erythritol sweetener]
- salt - 1/8 tsp (use 1/4 tsp if using unsalted butter)
- room-temperature egg - 1
- vanilla extract - 1 tsp
- almond flour - 5/4 cup
- coconut flour - 1 tbsp
- xanthan gum - 1 tsp
- baking soda - 3/4 tsp
- roughly chopped dark chocolate - 9 squares (half a typical Lindt Bar)
Steps:
- In a bowl, whisk together your almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, add your melted butter, vanilla extract, Sukrin brown sugar sweetener, allulose and salt. Whisk until well combined.
- Next add your egg. Whisk again until smooth.
- Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- Add your chocolate chunks and mix once again just until they are evenly distributed in the batter.
- Place your cookie dough in the fridge for 30min. Pre-heat your oven to 330F part way through this time.
- Grease a cookie sheet. Take spoonfuls of dough and place them evenly apart on a sheet. I recommend doing 6 on a normal 12 cookie baking sheet.
- Bake for 9-11 min or until the edges are just lightly browned but the cookies are still soft. Let them cool for 6 min on the baking sheet, lift them all gently with a spatula just to make sure the bottoms don''t stick, then keeping them on the tray, place them in the freezer to finish cooling for 10-12min (trust me on this!). Once cooled you can transfer them to a plate and serve with a glass of coconut or almond milk! Enjoy The Best Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies!
