Keto Chocolate-Peanut Cups

Why keto recipes live on this site: after I had my gallbladder removed, Mike and I did keto together. I had a few rough weeks at first — a daily probiotic and the right vitamins made a real difference for me — and these are the recipes that kept keto doable for a busy homeschool family. Everybody’s different, especially after surgery, so check with your doctor about what’s right for you.
