Watch out: This guacamole packs a punch, and not just because of the bacon. The subtle but spicy flavor from the serrano peppers is sure to tickle taste buds and delight spice lovers. If you don't want a spicy guacamole, simply omit the serrano and enjoy it without.

My mom, who hates onions but loves onion dip made from the blue box, would take the packet of dried onions and crush it through a strainer until there wasn’t a lick of onion string left in the dip. In her honor, I’ve created the exact opposite kind of dip, deeply flavored by sweet caramelized onions.

Crunchy on the outside but melty on the inside, these are a crowd pleaser as well as an indulgent late-night snack.

If Sundays at your house are reserved for football like they are at mine, this dip is sure to be a touchdown hit for the whole crowd. Packed with cheesy goodness and spicy chicken, this recipe will have you scraping the edges to get every last bite.

In college, I was not just a ramen girl—I was the ramen girl. I ran a column of ramen recipes on my dorm website and ate ramen just about every day. When a ramen cookbook came out, three people gave it to me for Christmas. I know ramen. I love ramen. I still buy spicy ramen, toss the noodles, and use the seasoning packet to make broth. When I first made this dip, I thought I was just being crazy and projecting like a true ramen addict. But ramen is back and can be enjoyed with fresh veggies or pork rinds. You’ll be amazed by how much flavor is packed into each bite.

When my legendary chocolate cravings hit, I reach for these peanut buttery cups of high-fat bliss. This recipe seamlessly blends coconut oil with peanut butter powder to create a smooth texture. If I only have regular peanut butter on hand, I just decrease the amount of coconut oil by about 1 tablespoon. My favorite way to eat these is to take small bites and let them slowly melt. De-li-cious.

One thing I’ve learned for sure is that keto cakes can be made from eggs and keto breads can be made from cheese. There’s really nothing you can’t do with eggs or cheese plus a little almond or coconut flour if you’re craving a bread-like treat. Huge props to UpLateAnyway.com, who inspired the dough for this recipe with her famous low-carb stromboli recipe, which, to me, makes her a ketogenic hero.

While you may buy French onion dip at the store, this recipe will make you quickly reconsider that decision. Caramelizing onions does bring out the sugars more but this dip can be enjoyed in moderation on the keto diet. Paired with pork rinds or raw vegetables, this dip can be enjoyed right after you make it or after resting in the refrigerator overnight for enhanced flavor.

Treat yourself to a tapas classic with these goat cheese stuffed peppers, roasted to perfection. The rich, creamy flavor of the goat cheese cuts through the light spice of the pepper and is complemented by the fresh basil. If you are unable to find fresh basil, make this recipe when you have it, as dried basil does not produce the same flavors when used as a substitute.

When you crave something spicy, these stuffed jalapeño poppers are a great go-to snack. Depending on the time of year, jalapeños can carry a mild or medium level of heat. Paired with cream cheese, the heat is tempered but still comes through in a pleasant, tasty way.

There’s nothing like a crispy, salty, ooey-gooey mozzarella stick. The secret to making them is that you absolutely must make and freeze them in advance; or they’ll end up a hot, ooey-gooey mess all over the baking sheet instead of in your mouth.

Nachos, my first love, my last love. While a pork rind can never truly replace a tortilla chip, the more toppings you add, the less you’ll care which vehicle is driving all that delicious cheese into your mouth.

Perfect for a party appetizer or an afternoon snack, these stuffed mushrooms roasted with cream cheese and prosciutto are a lovely treat. Prosciutto comes in a variety of thicknesses; for this recipe, the thinner the better. When prosciutto is cooked it can become tough if it's too thick, so ask your butcher for the thinnest cut available.

Full of fresh rosemary flavor, this simple snack is a personal and party favorite at my home. Fresh rosemary is key here, so save this recipe for another time if you only have dried rosemary on hand. I fell so in love with the flavor of these that I now keep a small rosemary bush on the back porch. Enjoy these nuts with a cup of tea or alongside cured meats and cheeses.

Pork rinds have this amazing ability to take on the flavor of whatever you spice them with, making these a crave-worthy sour cream and onion “chip.” You can usually get pork skin from a butcher or at your local international market; otherwise you can purchase “pork rind pellets” online.

A favorite of many, spinach and artichoke dip is the perfect thing to scoop up with some pork rinds for a tasty snack. Although this dip is traditionally made with mozzarella and Parmesan, this recipe includes the rich, nutty flavor of Gruyere for added cheesiness.

If you are a yogurt lover, fear not: Yogurt is a treat that can be had on keto every once in a while, but only in its full-fat form. Creamy yogurt pairs well with the crunch of chia seeds and sliced almonds in this parfait recipe. Add fresh berries or a dash of cocoa powder for a real sweet treat.
