By Carol Lovett on January 30 in Atkins, Dinner, Gluten Free, Low Carb, Paleo, Snack

I love the ketogenic diet. I often cycle in and out of it. One thing I hate is the lack of dairy-free ketogenic recipes. I love dairy, but dairy doesn’t love me so I can’t include it in every recipe which you often see in most ketogenic recipes. Most ketogenic recipes use cheese, heavy cream,…
