Konscious Keto Cupcakes

October is no grocery shopping month here. We are using what we have in the freezer, pantry, and fridge. When I got a craving for chocolate cupcakes and found out we had no cocoa powder, I started racking my brain. I pulled this out of the beverage cupboard skeptical if I could make it work. I hadn’t done baking before with protein powder, but my craving said “it’s worth a shot.”

The fact that I’m typing up this recipe means they came out absolutely FANTASTIC. I topped with All Day I Dream About Food’s Swiss Meringue Butter Cream Frosting with just a slight bit of orange food coloring for some October fun.

Butterfly Pea Powder Mug Cake

Butterfly Mug Cake

Ellie’s Best has come out with a new line of superfood powders that are great natural food colorings with a boost of vitamins and antioxidants. We have been playing with the butterfly pea powder and are loving the colorful food we’ve been able to make with it. It doesn’t change the flavor of the food you add it into, but it adds lots of great nutrition and it’s an anti-inflammatory! I’m all for sneaking in some extra nutrition for both me and the girls.

Some of the things we have been loving it for are:

  • Unicorn Milk (heavy cream, water, stevia, and butterfly pea powder)
  • Mixing in our low carb yogurt (click here for that recipe)
  • This fun and SUPER simple mug cake!

You can get a discount on your bag of superfood powder (and all their other products) by using the code: MNKETOMOM on the Ellie’s Best website!

Keto Chicken Cordon Bleu

This dinner was one of the most amazing meals we’ve had while doing keto (over a year and a half in!) Took us back to our childhoods when our parents bought the frozen chicken cordon bleu in the cellophane packages. Was delicious and SUPER easy to recreate keto. Ingredients: 6 Chicken Breasts 8 oz Shredded
