Before you start converting sweeteners, read my guide about sugar substitutes and keto sweeteners here — it’s crucial for understanding how they work and has a big section on baking. The most common question I get, though, is how to replace sweeteners in keto recipes. So, I created a sweetener conversion chart, as well as an easy calculator to do it for you. I’ll also talk about erythritol substitutes (the most common question), and the recipe differences when using erythritol vs stevia, monk fruit vs stevia, and allulose vs erythritol....

Have you ever gone to one of those little, unassuming seafood shacks that ended up knocking your socks off with their lobster roll or fish sandwich? I recently had such an experience. The fish sandwich made with ‘catch of the day’ fish that I ordered while in one of Sarasota’s local seafood places was a delight to eat. Every component on the sandwich worked seamlessly with the rest, which really helped enhance and highlight the taste of the fish without overpowering it....

Don’t be afraid to make adjustments based on what you have on hand. You can often swap one vegetable for another, use frozen vegetables instead of fresh, or change up the type of beans the recipe calls for, to name but a few examples....
