A Quick Bite – Chocolate Seed Bars
We like a grab and go snack, especially as my partner is often on the go at work, so these protein snack bars work well. I find that you need these alongside a drink, nice with coffee, but that’s not a bad thing. If you want them for children’s packed lunches replace the nuts with…

Christmas preparations
Every year I make Christmas pudding but it is sooo high in sugars and carbs that last year I made up my own recipe that, though not Keto, is lower in carbs so made me feel better. My partner thinks I should sell them. This year I’m sharing the love and yesterday made 7 to…
