First Time Mom and Losing It

*I received the products below free for my review. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be a good fit for my readers. All opinions are 100% my own.


Being a part of the low carb community Sukrin Products kept coming up in all of the talks. I had never heard of the brand before so I went to their site to see what they had. I was so pleased to see all of the low carb and natural sweeteners they had in stock.


I love that they have different sweeteners for different tastes. The Sukrin: 1 is erythritol mixed with a little bit of stevia. It measures one to one with regular sugar so it's easy to replace it in any recipe or even in your morning coffee. I loved using the Sukrin: 1 in my chocolate mug cake for a sweet treat at the end of the day. I also used some of the Sukrin Melis (like powdered sugar) to make my mug cake look pretty and for an extra dusting of sweetness.

Everytime I see one of those viral recipes on Facebook I start thinking about ways to keto-ize it. When I saw the Sesame Wings from Tastemade I knew the Fiber Syrup Gold would be the perfect substitute for the honey in the recipe.



Keto Sesame Wings

• 10 chicken wings cut into wingettes and drumettes
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. black pepper
• 1 tblsp. baking powder
• 2 tblsp. sesame oil
• 1 tsp. chopped garlic (1 clove garlic)
• 1 tblsp. Braggs Liquid Aminos (you can substitute soy sauce or coconut aminos)
• 3 tblsp. Sukrin Fiber Gold
• 1 tblsp Sukrin Gold
• 1 tblsp. sesame seeds

Step 1: Sprinkle the salt, pepper and baking powder on top of the chicken wings. Mix well. Place on a lined baking sheet and bake in the oven on 400 for 20 minutes. Turn the wings and bake for another 20 minutes.

Step 2: While the wings are baking mix the remaining ingredients (except for the sesame seeds) in a saucepan. Cook until it starts to boil and then lower the heat and cook for 10 minutes. Make sure to constantly stir so the bottom doesn't burn.

Step 3: Place sauce in a large bowl and top with the cooked wings. Carefully toss to fully coat the wings. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top and toss to coat again.


I am having so much fun with the Sukrin products and have lots of ideas coming up with them. I will post them to social media when they are up. Surkin also offers Sugar Free chocolate, low carb bake mixes and nut flours. Right now Sukrin is offering free shipping on $75+ orders – and low flat-rate shipping on orders less than $75!

One of my favorite things to eat on my keto / low carb way of eating is chicken wings! Buffalo chicken wings with a spicy buttery sauce and then dipped in blue cheese dressing has always been my favorite. Now that I can eat them whenever I want and still lose weight I am kind of getting tired of the buffalo and blue cheese combo so I decided to change them up by making these.


My husband has been craving barbecue sauce since we started eating keto so I was on the search of a low carb sauce I could buy. I couldn't find any in my local supermarkets so I started the search again while in Texas. We went to a supermarket called Sprout that sold lots of low-carb friendly products and I decided to try the barbecue sauce from Walden Farms. It was a no go for us with the weird texture and weird taste. Off to search again I went and decided to try my hand at making it myself. I came across this version of low-carb barbecue sauce and have been hooked on it ever since. Low Carb Barbecue Sauce


Low-Carb Barbecue Chicken Wings

• chicken wings
• seasonings of your choice
• Low Carb Barbecue Sauce

Step 1: Prepare your chicken wings. I love to buy the big bag from Costco that are flash frozen and cut into wingette and drumettes. I usually make 16 pieces at a time.

Step 2: Dry and season your chicken wings. I like to use onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, adobo, sazon, fresh black pepper and Himalayan pink sea salt.

Step 3: Wrap a baking pan in aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray and place the wings on top, evenly spacing them.

Step 4: Bake in a 375 oven for 25 minutes. Turn each wing and bake for 15 minutes. Brush barbecue sauce on top of each wing and place back in the oven for 15 more minutes or until the wings are cooked through and the sauce is caramelized.

Step 5: Enjoy!
