Here is a weeknight dinner idea for you all to put on your menu this week. Keto Sloppy Joes and Mock Mac N Cheese. Both recipes are delicious and simple to make. I served the Sloppy Joes on Cloud Bread with some melted provolone cheese. All I can say is delicious! I call these HERwich (my keto-fied version of the Manwich : ). The Mock Mac N Cheese is so cheesy and decadent. You will be surprised what I used for 'noodles' in this dish. Hint: it is a veggie. Head down the page here to the recipe and you will find out what I used as a noodle alternative.
