March 2018 Blog Traffic & Income Report Hey there, Gretchen here, with March 2018’s Blog Traffic and Income Report. This month’s report marks my 7th income report, and my largest to date, which I’m super excited to share with you. I publish these income reports each month for a few reasons.

It is based on a solid foundation of biological and physiological processes in our bodies, and has been tested time and time again as having a positive impact on our bodies. Instead of relying on strict calories counting, over-exercising, or any other weird cabbage-soup focused diet, the Ketogenic diet instead focuses on fueling your… Read More

How To Update Old Blog Posts (And Why You Should!)

How To Update Old Blog Posts (And Why You Should!) If you’ve been blogging for a while, you’ve probably built up quite a few blog posts on your site.

Today, I’m going to talk about… Read More

Skillet Chicken with Mushrooms, Bacon and Thyme Sauce

Skillet Chicken with Mushroom, Bacon and Thyme Cream Sauce Need a quick weeknight dinner? Look no further than these Skillet Chicken Thighs with Mushroom, Bacon and Thyme Cream Sauce. I love using chicken thighs in recipes because they’re inexpensive, you can find them in nearly every grocery store, and they don’t dry out like chicken breasts. That being said, their flavor is not my favorite, so I tend to pair them with strong flavors like the bacon and thyme found in this recipe. And can I give you a quick tip? No matter how pressed for time you are, make… Read More

Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies These Keto Peanut butter cookies are the absolute BEST. They definitely don’t last long in my house!

Keto Bourbon Chicken

Pin this recipe for later. Slow Cooker Keto Bourbon Chicken I’ll be honest, this recipe happened a little bit my accident. I was trying to create a Keto General Tso’s recipes for the slow cooker, but since I was cooking with my 4-year-old, I forgot the red curry paste, and doubled the sweetener! To my surprise, it turned out awesome, but I didn’t know what to call it! So I served some to the hubs and he said it tasted like Bourbon Chicken, so here we are. Since I am all about easy and healthful recipes – and the hubs… Read More
