Buffalo Chicken Dip seems to be one of those crowd favorites that everyone loves! It’s the easiest way to get your chicken wing fix without the messiness. There are lots of awesome recipes out there, but in this recipe we will be making Grilled Buffalo Chicken Dip. By grilling the chicken (hit with a squeeze of lime when you remove it from the grill) it adds a deliciously tangy and smokey grill flavor that elevates this dish to a whole new level.
Can I just start by saying this keto friendly, high protein chocolate mug cake is only 200 calories?
I’ve been on a quest to find a complete replica of a brownie-like cake that could satisfy my instant gratification while not ruining all the hard work I’ve put into eating cleaner and working hard at the gym. Not a black bean brownie, nor fake sugar that leaves a gross aftertaste in your mouth. The past few years I’ve tried “healthy” sweets and yes, it can be good when you’re totally desperate, but I wanted better.
I was yearning for a true dessert that tasted like, well… dessert! There are really good keto recipes out there that are really good, but they are also high in fat and calories. Since I am not doing keto, I really don’t want the extra numbers in my dessert. So I am super excited to share this recipe with you today that can give us the best of both worlds.
Oh, and I forgot to mention this dessert is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, low carb/sugar, low fat and high protein!

I have always had a weird love for espresso and peanut butter paired together in recipes. It’s a strange sounding combination, and when I add peanut butter to a mocha smoothie or espresso to a peanut butter smoothie, usually the worker confirms my order thinking they misunderstood what I asked for. Have you ever had an adffogato with peanut butter and chocolate ice cream? It’s an incredible combination. Read More
Whenever I am eating healthier, one of the foods I have to give up is smoothies from Tropical Smoothie, Jamba Juice, or Smoothie King. They have such a healthy rep but in reality they are full of sugar and carbs. Have you ever looked at the nutrition facts…? It’s depressing, really.
But I recently discovered that if you ask for “no Turbinado / no sugar, etc” you save at least half of the calories, sugar and carbs. Tropical Smoothie is more popular in the area that I live in, so this is where I frequent the most. But you can make this request at any smoothie shop. Read More
Hands down, this is the best result of a vegetable-substituting-meat scenario in the history of ever and ever.
I am not very open-minded when it comes to vegetarian recipes (or really with anything that’s different from my usual). “I will order something new this time”, she says.
It never happens.
As much as I make self promises to think outside the box, I just stick to what I know… until today. Read More
This was such an easy and cheap recipe but tastes and presents amazingly. A coworker of mine did a two week trial of Hello Fresh, and even though I sort of have a bit of an issue with the concept, this recipe he explained to me sounded amazing! Read More
I took a risk making these yesterday. My fiance is not huge fan of fancy flavors and is a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to pancakes. Blueberry, lemon, plain.. that’s about the extent of it. Since I plan and cook our meals for the week each Sunday, I didn’t want to allow him the opportunity to burst my bubble and say “pumpkin pie pancakes sound too sweet, can you just make blueberry”. So like most things, I didn’t tell him and did it anyways, naturally. Read More
Fluffy, hearty and simple! These are a great go-to for make ahead meals. I usually cook on Sundays for the week and when I am short on a time (like this week, with my work conference in full swing) breakfast casseroles are the seriously the best way to go! We usually add sriracha or different types of salsa to change it up and keep it from getting boring after a few days in a row (tomatillo, pico de gallo, etc). Read More
I am really happy to finally post this chicken salad recipe. Chicken salad has so many versions, it really comes down to your preference. What’s common here in the south is chicken salad that is more “mushy” sort of like tunafish. Me no likey that. So this is a chunky version with cubed chicken breasts in a healthy Greek yogurt base with tons of dill – one of the best herbs of all times ever. Read More
This! This! This! I feel like these should be called LIFE CHANGING MUFFINS because they have seriously given me a reason to live. I am still questioning if and how these can be guilt-free because they taste like freakin rainbows and unicorns had a baby. Have I been eating healthy too long and now everything sweet taste amazing? I don’t want to oversell how incredible these are. But try them for yourself and let me know! They are super chocolatey, ridiculously moist and have that fresh essence from the mashed bananas in the batter. What more could you ask for? Read More
