Keto has changed my life tremendously. I feel better than ever before. I’m more confident that I have been in years and I love shopping for clothes again. Not only do I praise keto for feeling better in my clothes, but my blood pressure is also down, the numbers on my latest blood test was excellent.
It’s true, I do get a little overzealous when I talk about keto. I want everyone to experience the joy that I have. Keto is misunderstood by so many. I honestly think that most people with negative opinions have not read and studied this lifestyle. Most hear a negative comment from someone and go from there. When you hear negative feedback though, find out the facts. What happened that made this person have a bad experience. What exactly were they doing? Were they doing the shakes, supplements, were they eating healthy fats and balancing their diets with plenty of low-carb vegetables? If you dig a little bit, you can probably pinpoint what went wrong for them.
I have been keto since September 2018 and still have so much to learn. It is beneficial that I have friends on this same journey. We support each other by sharing recipes, accomplishments, and frustrations.
This week’s recipe is an incredible steak butter! I first tried steak butter in Kansas City several years ago, and I have been hooked since. Forget the steak sauce, this is all you’ll need. The fresh herbs, garlic, and lemon juice make any steak mouth-watering! This recipe makes enough to share with a friend or freeze. Don’t limit yourself to only topping steaks, though, try it on poultry, pork, and even fish too!
- 2 tbsp. minced garlic
- 2 tbsp. plus 1 lb. unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp. minced fresh thyme
- 1 tbsp. minced fresh rosemary
- 1 tbsp. salt
- 1 tbsp. black pepper
- 1 lemon, juiced
- Toast garlic in 2 tbsp. butter in a small skillet. Heat just until turning brown. Be very careful not to burn it. Set aside.
