Ingredients For Easy Keto Friendly Big Mac Sliders Recipe Idea
Big Mac Sauce:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon keto ketchup store-bought or make your own
- 2 tablespoon dill relish
- 1 teaspoon dried minced onion rehydrated, or use 1 tablespoon fresh minced white onion
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Granular Swerve
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Big Mac:
- ½ pound ground beef formed into 4 thin patties, see Notes

- butter as needed
- shredded lettuce
- dill pickles
- 4 slices American cheese
Instructions For Easy Keto Friendly Big Mac Sliders Recipe Idea
Big Mac Sauce:
- Combine all ingredients in bowl and whisk until fully incorporated. Refrigerate sauce until ready to assemble burgers.
Big Mac:
- Season burger patties on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat one large skillet over medium-high heat, then fry patties until cooked through, flipping as needed.
- While patties fry, butter insides of bun tops and bottoms. Heat second large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add bun tops and bottoms buttered-side down and toast them, like you would a grilled cheese. Set buns aside until ready to assemble burgers.
- Once patties are cooked through, spread keto Big Mac sauce on buttered & toasted sides of all buns. Assemble burgers in the following order: bottom bun, sauce, onions, pickles, lettuce, burger patty, cheese, bottom bun, sauce, onions, pickles, lettuce, burger patty, cheese, top bun. Serve warm.
Burger Patties: Form ground beef into 4 thin patties, or use 4 pre-made ¼-pound burger patties (we do this a lot to save time). If you’re forming the burger patties yourself, incorporate the salt and pepper into the meat before flattening it into a patty. That way it’s seasoned throughout, rather than just on the top and bottom. If you’re using frozen burger patties, let them heat up in the pan a little before you season them; that way the salt and pepper actually sticks!
- Keto Sesame Seed Buns: Make your own or use store-bought keto buns like these from Wholesome Provisions. The nutrition information shown was calculated using Wholesome Provisions’ buns. You could also use chaffles instead of buns. Want to save a bun? You need 4 bottom buns + 2 top buns total for your burgers. If you take 3 bottom buns and 3 top buns, and cut the domed “top” off one of the top buns, you now have 4 bottom buns and 2 top buns!

When Ignorance Screams, Intelligence Is Silent- Your Peace and Quiet Are Worth More Inspirational Reading Share
Fable: DON'T ARGUE WITH DONKEYS
The donkey said to the tiger:
- "The grass is blue".
- "No, the grass is green."
The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit him to arbitration, and for this they went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.
Already before reaching the forest clearing, where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey began to shout:
- "His Highness, is it true that the grass is blue?".
The lion replied:
- "True, the grass is blue."
The donkey hurried and continued:
- "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me, please punish him."
The king then declared:
- "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."
The donkey jumped cheerfully and went on his way, content and repeating:
- "The Grass Is Blue"...
The tiger accepted his punishment, but before he asked the lion:
- "Your Majesty, why have you punished me?, after all, the grass is green."
The lion replied:
- "In fact, the grass is green."
The tiger asked:
- "So why are you punishing me?".
The lion replied:
- "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green.
The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that come and bother me with that question."
The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who does not care about truth or reality, but only the victory of his beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on arguments that don't make sense...
There are people who, no matter how much evidence and evidence we present to them, are not in the capacity to understand, and others are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and all they want is to be right even if they are not.
When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent. Your peace and quietness are worth more. 
Easy Keto Friendly Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe Idea
Ingredients For Easy Keto Friendly Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe Idea
- 4 cups cooked chicken breast (roasted, rotisserie or baked), cubed
- 2 cups chicken stock
- ⅔ cup mascarpone cheese (see notes)
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 1 cup celery, diced
- ½ onion, minced
- ⅔ cup cut green beans, frozen
- 1 batch of Drop Biscuits, use Monterey Jack instead of cheddar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions For Easy Keto Friendly Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe Idea
- Heat a large skillet to medium and add in the butter and olive oil. Once the butter has melted, add in the onion, celery, carrots, salt and pepper. Sauté for 10 minutes or until fork tender.
- Then add in the chicken stock and mascarpone. Once the mascarpone has melted, stir in the green beans and chicken, then continue cooking for 5 more minutes while you preheat the oven and mix up the batch of drop biscuits. I recommend using Monterey Jack cheese in the drop biscuit dough, instead of cheddar, if possible. Stir in the ¼ teaspoon of Xanthan Gum and continue stirring till the sauce has thickened. Preheat oven to 400F.
- Pour the chicken mixture into a 9″ x 13″ baking casserole dish, that’s been sprayed with nonstick spray. Take the drop biscuit batter and dollop 8 equal servings over the top of the casserole. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden.
- Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for a few days or freeze.
Notes For Easy Keto Friendly Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe Idea
If you can’t find mascarpone cheese, you can substitute with cream cheese.
The carrots in this recipe have a minimal impact on the net carbs, but you can certainly omit them if you’d like.

Happiness Is Not A Destination, It's A Journey- Happiness Is Not Tomorrow- It's Now Inspirational Reading Share
Finding Happiness ...
"A beautiful woman in an expensive dress came to her psychiatrist, saying that she was depressed and her life was meaningless.
'I'm going to ask Mary here to tell you how she found happiness. All I want you to do is listen to her'
So the old lady put her broom, sat on a chair and told her story...
'My husband died of cancer. 3 months later my only son was killed by a car.. I had nobody.. I had nothing left.. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn't eat, I never smiled at anyone. I even thought of taking my own life.
Then one evening, a little kitten followed me home from work. Somehow I felt sorry for that kitten. It was cold outside, so I decided to let the kitten in. I got it some milk, and the kitten licked the plate clean.
Then it rubbed against my leg and, for the first time in months, I smiled.
Then I stopped to think ... If helping a little kitten could make me smile, may be doing something for people could make me happy.
So the next day I baked some biscuits and took them to a neighbour who was sick in bed.
Every day I tried to do something nice for someone. It made me so happy to see them happy.
Today I don't know of anybody, who sleeps better than I do. I have found happiness by giving it to others.'
When she heard that, the rich lady cried. She had everything money could buy, but she had lost the things money cannot buy.
The beauty of life does not depend on how happy you are, but on how happy others can be because of you.
Happiness is not a destination. It's a journey. Happiness is not tomorrow, its now.
Happiness is not a dependency, its a decision. Happiness is who you are, not what you have."

Please Turn On The Lights You Switched Off Inspirational Reading Share
Yesterday I visited a friend of mine, who is blind. And because it was night he did something that taught me a lesson.
Upon entering the house, he switched on the light.
He laughed for a long time, switched off the light and went to the kitchen.
After a short while he came with a pot of tea and eggs, placed them perfectly well on the table and switched on the light again.
What he said made me shed tears because he said to me, Mr. G ..... *I did not put on the light for my own sake or because I needed it, I did it for you because you needed it since you are not blind like me".*
Then he asked me, Mr. G,
*How many times have you switched off the light for other people and denied them an opportunity to see light just because you yourself do not need it?"*
I thought about that so deeply, and now I am asking you the same question today.
*How many times have you put off your lights and denied others an opportunity to see the light while they are in darkness?*
Why would you let your accounts grow to millions and even billions while your brother's child is going barefooted?
Why would you put clothes you don't wear in the bin while someone out there is almost going naked?
Why would food rot in your house while there is someone out there sleeping hungry?
Why will you see a business opportunity and hide it without sharing with your friends when you know you won’t use it?
Why will you be in a position to help someone get a promotion or a new job and you keep it because the person is not from your family, tribe or religion?
*Why will you defame your brother or sister just because you don't want someone to help them?*
*Each of the questions above is equivalent to switching “Off The Light”*
These are the things we should be mindful of as human beings.
This is true religion, helping the needy and being there for those who do not have a voice.
*Please turn on the lights you switched Off!*
What Goes Around Comes Around- Always Help Others If You Can Inspirational Reading Share
" What goes around comes around "
One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was those chills which only fear can put in you. He said, “I’m here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.
Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn’t erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan.
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: “You don’t owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you.”
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard….
She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, “Everything’s going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson.”
There is an old saying “What goes around comes around.”
