Recipe Box

Who am I.. It’s complicated.

Well ok, no it’s not. I am Monica Stroud.  I’m a mother, a wife and a software engineer.  I live in the California central valley (Orangevale, CA) with my husband Fearghus, son Erik, two dogs (Freya and Sif), and a cat (His Evilness Emperor Loki the Kitty).

In early 2017 I started following the #keto diet and so far I’ve lost 50 lbs.  It turns out giving up bread wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be.  Since I started I’ve done a lot of research into this lifestyle and have accumulated a lot of good recipes along the way.  This blog is my way of sharing all of this with you.
