Low Carb, High Fat ,Gluten Free Super Bowl Party Recipes!

Are you ready for some football?


Let's talk about FOOD!

What will I be making this year?

For last year's Big Game I made Bacon Cheeseburger Crock Pot Dip.  It was so yummy!  I liked it so much that I'm making it again this year.  I'll be sure to serve it with certified gluten free tortilla chips (not low carb).  You could always make your own chips from cheese.  Chips from cheese?  YES!  They are so easy to make and so good.  My 3 year old loves them too.


I'll also be making Smoked Sausage Cheddar Beer Soup.  I typically use O-Mission beer when I go for a gluten free one.  This is another family favorite and so easy to make since you throw it in the crockpot.

I won't be making these this year, but these Parmesan Tater Tots with Chipotle Dipping Sauce are also really tasty although they do require a little bit more work to make.

I'd love to hear what other low-carb recipes you might be making for the Super Bowl this year!

February Low Carb, High Fat, Gluten Free Dinner Menu

Happy February!

Smoked Sausage Cheddar Beer Soup .
February is a very special, very busy and very expensive month for us.  Both the Mister and I have our birthdays, there is Valentine's Day and my brother and mother-in-law have birthdays as well.  And there is the Super Bowl too which we actually get to relax and watch this year since our beloved Patriots won't be in it.  Crazy.

February also brings with it a new dinner menu.  During the last week of the month prior I sit down with my pen, paper and log into Pinterest to start planning out the next month's menu.

I started menu planning a year ago and it really has been a game changer for me.  I don't grocery shop nearly as much because I have everything I need to make dinner already.  We also don't eat out as much because frankly, if I can make it at home why would I pay someone 3 times as much to eat it at their restaurant?  Menu planning has definitely made me picky about eating out.

Now, I don't cook every night and most of our lunches tend to be leftovers from the night before.  The reason I don't cook every night is because I get such little time to spend with my family that I really can't bear to stand at the stove for an hour, hour and a half every night.  Plus, I start Half Marathon training this month!
