You can try a bunch of different products, without hunting them all down at different stores or… Read More

Pin this recipe for later. Slow Cooker Keto General Tso’s Chicken I’ve been working on this recipe for a while, and have definitely had some bumps along the way (like Bourbon Chicken) But I’ve finally created a Slow Cooker Keto General Tso’s Chicken that tastes just as good – if not better – than the stuff you get as takeout. Since I am all about easy and healthful recipes – and the hubs was a fan – I’m adding this recipe to our regular meal rotation. This is a great place to use some of the chicken breasts we got… Read More

January 2018 Blog Traffic & Income Report

January 2018 Blog Traffic & Income Report Hi there! Gretchen here, with this month’s traffic and income report for Fit Mom Journey. I have been doing these reports for 5 months now, but I started when I was actually making some money. Previously, before that first income report I had blogged at Fit Mom Journey for 1.5 years, and at my other blogs for 3 years! I do this for a couple of reasons. The first is that I think it’s important to step back, evaluate, and regroup. It’s a time to gather up all the number, the strategies, and the… Read More

Think sticky, delicious chicken thighs, rubbed with a homemade spice and coated with a sweet, spicy, sticky sauce – soooo good! I just love the combination of sweet and spicy – throw it on chicken and you’re going to love it! Especially if pre-keto, you were addicted to take out. Like me. True story.

Also important: the beef tips can stay in the slow cooker up to 12 hours on low, without… Read More

Keto Lemon Bars

Keto Lemon Bars Lemon bars are a classic for a reason. They just looks so cheery and fancy, while taking very little work at all to make! Growing up, I would make money bars for my mom because she loved lemon, and then my whole family would devour them – sometimes before she even got a chance to eat them! As with most recipes, it takes a few tries to “ketofy” a traditional recipe into something that’s both super low carb, filled with healthful ingredients, and that actually tastes good. This one did take me a couple of tries,… Read More
