Keto Dinner Roll

Keto Dinner Roll

These are easy to make keto friendly dinner rolls, help to replace bread 

in your low carb lifestyle.

Bread.

Is one of the hardiest food to give up. 

Actually I'm not doing a keto diet/lifestyle but it looks like I will be doing it. 

Few months ago I was told by my doctor that I developed a gluten intolerance, so she asked me to give up anything that contain wheat, barley, and rye. But I am that hard headed patient. I try giving it up on the first few weeks and started eating gluten again. 

Last week I fall sick I got a terrible migraine that last for days, I wasn't able to go to work and today woke up with a severe psoriasis on my face. I was like freaking out. I went again to see my doctor and she scolded me for being so hard headed. 

She reminded me like million of times to cut of gluten from now on. 

I feel like heart broken, I just found the love for baking just few years ago and I was enjoying it, my kitchen is my happy place. If am going to completely give up gluten will I give up my love for baking as well? 

I think so many times and weigh things out. Baking using gluten free is more expensive but I think it is more expensive going back to the doctor and not able to go to work for days if I fall sick. 

I gather myself and research what are the things that I can do and I found about keto diet. Keto is cutting back carbohydrate from your diet, and most of them were gluten free. I told myself its not really bad, all I have to do is think outside from the traditional baking. 

From now on this blog will be more on healthier baking!
