• Instant Pot Shredded Chicken

    November 8, 2022

    This basic recipe for Instant Pot shredded chicken is as easy as it is delicious. Enjoy it plain or use it as the base for something else, this is sure to be a staple in your fridge and meal prep repertoire.  One of my favorite things to make in the Instant Pot* is shredded chicken. Actually, it’s any kind of chicken because I can throw it into the Instant Pot without having to defrost it first and it comes out perfect every single time.  I also love the chicken broth that’s leftover from each batch of chicken I make in the Instant…

  • Easy (Low-Carb) Buffalo Chicken Wrap

    November 6, 2022

    Made with 5 simple ingredients, this easy (low-carb) buffalo chicken wrap is sure to be your go-to for a quick (and flavorful!) lunch or dinner. Something I struggle with most days is what to have for lunch. I’m usually trying to do a million different things between getting my youngest lunch and having to whisk her upstairs for her nap, so my own eating needs tend to be an afterthought. I know I could do leftovers, but those never really seem appealing in the moment. What’s been saving me lately is making sure to have a batch of plain shredded chicken in…

  • Low-Carb Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps

    September 13, 2022

    These Low-Carb Thai chicken lettuce wraps are our new favorite meal. They are bursting with flavor, have just the right amount of heat (at least for the grown-ups), and contain a whopping 7g net carbs per serving. The best part? They take less than 30 minutes to make, from start to finish. You’ll definitely want to make them again and again (and again). I always forget how good lettuce wraps are. They just never are top of mind for me when it comes to dinner or menu planning. So when I stumbled upon a recipe for lettuce wraps from A Pinch…

  • Undressed Chicken Meatballs

    September 12, 2022

    If you’re looking for an easy dinner or something to batch cook for lunches, these undressed (AKA plain) chicken meatballs are IT. They are extremely versatile and can be dressed up or down based on your preferences.  One thing I struggle with a lot on the keto diet is lunch. I never want to put in full effort and after getting lunch ready for the kids, I have little energy to do much for myself. So I stand aimlessly in front of the refrigerator for the next 20 minutes trying to figure out what the heck to make for myself.…

  • Sweet Potato and Beef Hash

    April 20, 2020

    Delicious for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this sweet potato and beef hash is always a hit in the House of Lev. And with a grand total of three ingredients (YEP, THREE) it truly couldn’t get any easier. Unless, of course, it cooked itself. As we enter into our sixth week of quarantine and six whole weeks of cooking 3 meals a day for 4 people, the only thing I want lately is EASY. And this sweet potato and beef hash fits that bill nicely. With a grand total of three ingredients (YEP, THREE) this couldn’t get any easier. Unless, of course, it…

  • Clementine Vinaigrette

    July 15, 2019

    I was tasked with bringing a snack for Anna’s group at camp a few weeks ago and figured that clementines would be a safe bet because they don’t have nuts of any kind, are self-contained, and would be seriously refreshing after playing in the hot sun for a while. Anna seemed to agree with me and signed off on the snack choice. Turns out the kids didn’t agree with my snack choice because Anna came home with all but two of the clementines that afternoon. No biggie, I thought. They will get eaten. I began to pack them for her…

  • Honey Sriracha Meatballs

    June 24, 2019

    I would like to preface this post by saying that Anna does not eat meatballs of any kind let alone honey sriracha meatballs. In fact, the only kind of meat she likes is of the hot dog variety. So I’m posting this for this for the grown-ups because they are seriously delicious and easy to make. If you happen to have a kid that eats whatever you put in front of them, a.) I’m insanely jealous and b.) make these stat. At one point in time (maybe two years ago now), Anna got super into the idea of meatballs thanks…
