Keto-Friendly Watergate Salad (aka Pistachio Cheesecake Mousse with Pineapple and Cherries)

June 21, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

Nutty, creamy and crazy-flavorful Keto-Friendly Watergate Salad (aka Pistachio Cheesecake Mousse with Pineapple and Cherries) will transport you right back to the summer potlucks of your youth!

Summer potluck foods are some of my most memorable childhood food memories. There was my mom’s famous baked beans, for starters. And her taco salad. And her creamy mayo-based dressing for topping tomatoes right out of the garden. And my grandma on my dad’s side made this sort-of pineapple slab pie with vanilla frosting that was topped with almonds and cherries, which sounds weird as heck, but was actually pretty fabulous (in an over-the-top sugar rush kind of way)….

Low-Carb “Maple” Cheesecake Mousse

February 22, 2018 By faith 5 Comments

Low-Carb “Maple” Cheesecake Mousse uses a spice called fenugreek that’s known for its caramel-y maple-like flavor in a rich treat that is basically a fat bomb in mousse form!

Maple syrup has always been and will always be one of my favorite sweeteners. The absolute only reason I try to limit it in my eating is because even though it’s a natural form of sugar, it still has the same effect on the body and I noticed I feel much better (in terms of steady energy) if I limit my sugar consumption. But that didn’t stop me from simulating its flavor….

Low-Carb No-Bake Buttermint Cheesecake Mousse

Low-Carb No-Bake Buttermint Cheesecake Mousse is a delicious keto treat.

My hubby and I went to London for a quick getaway over Valentine’s weekend last month. We had our fill of local fare, including fish and chips, steak and ale pie, scones, and local cheese, all of which we thoroughly enjoyed.

We tried to keep some semblance of balance, and walking between 10 to 12 miles a day (really! We used a pedometer to measure) definitely helped. But when we got back home we were both eager to get back to our normal eating habits….

5-Minute Classic Chocolate Avocado Mousse

This 5-Minute Classic Chocolate Avocado Mousse is rich and lusciously chocolatey, and full of heart-healthy fats.

My husband doesn’t understand my love affair with chocolate, and I don’t understand his apathy towards it. (He could literally take it or leave it.)

I think men and women’s differing points of view on chocolate is one of life’s biggest mysteries.

And truthfully, I think men are weird (sorry guys)….

Mango Mousse

This light and fluffy Mango Mousse has just two ingredients and doesn’t require any cooking!

I go through breakfast phases where I’ll eat the same thing every morning for six months straight and then suddenly I’m done. Like forever.

My latest morning obsession is plain Greek yogurt topped with fresh pineapple, walnuts, and a generous dollop of mango mousse stirred in. I hope I don’t get sick of it anytime soon because boy is it delicious and satisfying. (It takes a special breakfast to keep me fueled until lunch and this does the trick perfectly.)…

5-Ingredient Chocolate-Coconut Mousse

December 15, 2014 By faith 1 Comment

When I was a kid, there was a local ice cream parlor that sold the best ever chocolate soft-serve. Not only was it super thick, smooth, and creamy (seriously, it was nothing short of luscious), but it had little flecks of chocolate throughout.

I’m telling you, to a 10-year-old kid it was the stuff dreams are made of. (Who am I kidding? I still dream about that ice cream.)…
