The past couple weeks I have been trying out keto friendly super bowl apps for you all sharing which winners you should make on game day! This cheeseburger muffin recipe I found over at Ruled Me. The first thing I noticed was how cute they were! Definitely a fun looking treat. That being said, they were good, but taste wise they were not anything special for me. I do think that if I had the silicone muffin cups that the recipe called for then it may have made a huge difference in how much I could actually get into the muffin making it taste better, but at the end of the day, I personally think I would like to keep my muffins sweet. I give this recipe one thumb up out of two because they did still taste good, I would eat them, and they were cute.
Cheeseburger Muffin Buns
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup sour cream

Hamburger Filling
  • 16 ounces ground beef
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Toppings
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese (1.5 oz.)
  • 18 slices baby dill pickles (1 pickle)
  • 2 tablespoons reduced sugar ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons mustard



Directions
  1. Measure out the ground beef and place into a hot pan. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook beef until browned on the bottom, the season with onion powder, garlic powder, and tomato paste. Mix together and turn off the heat. You should be left with “rare” (only semi-cooked) ground beef.
  3. Mix together the dry ingredients for the muffins and pre-heat oven to 350F.
  4. Add wet ingredients into the muffin mixture and mix well.
  5. Divide up the mixture for the muffins into silicone muffin cups. Indent the muffin using your finger or a spoon to give space for the ground beef. Then, fill each muffin with ground beef mixture.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until muffins are browned slightly on the outside.
  7. Remove from the oven and top with some cheese, then broil for an additional 1-3 minutes.
  8. Let cool for 5-10 minutes, then remove from the silicone muffin cups.
  9. Serve and enjoy! Top with chopped pickles, ketchup, mustard or your favorite condiments!
This makes 9 Keto Cheeseburger Muffins. Each muffin comes out to be 255.67 Calories, 19.67g Fats, 2.97g Net Carbs, and 14.6g Protein.

Recipe Thursday: Fall Detox Vegetable Soup

Image
I am a Boston girl born and raised but honestly I am cold more often than not. For that reason as soon as summer ends I start to get sad and panic about how I am going to keep myself warm all winter. One way that works for me is to make a lot of warm soups so that I can warm myself up from the inside out!  When I posted the choices for this week's Recipe Thursday , the concern over the word "detox" was thoroughly entertaining. Trust me, I get it. In the past, the word detox meant spending an entire day in the....well you get the point. As I came to learn more about nutrition I began to understand that "detox" does not mean that you will not be able to leave your house for days, all it means is that you are cleansing your body of toxins in a healthy way.  I kid, I kid...my point is that the Fall Vegetable Detox Soup was the winner this week and eating it does not mean that you will have to cancel your plans for the day. I found this soup reci

What a Day of Meals Looks Like on the 3-Day Refresh.

Image
The 3-Day Refresh Cleanse came out last week, and I am sure you are all wondering what a day of meals would look like if you were to do this cleanse. I have decided to put this post together so that I can simply show you how the cleanse will go day by day.  Day 1-  (Upon waking drink 8-10 oz. of filtered water.) Breakfast(within 1 hour of waking): Shakeology blended in 1 1/4 cups filtered water. Plus 1 serving from the fruit list. I chose half of a banana and actually added it into my shake. I added ice, and cinnamon which is on the guilt-free flavorings list that they provide us. I made it the same way all 3 days. Optional: Morning Tea (at least one hour after breakfast) 1 cup unsweetened herbal or green tea. (stevia sweetener allowed) I chose not to do this because I was fine drinking my water.  Mid-Morning(at least 1 hour after morning tea): Fiber Sweep (digestive health drink) mixed in 1 cup filtered water. The first day I did not add enough
