How to Make a Keto Cheese Board 101
There’s so much more to a keto-friendly cheese plate than cheese.
Hey everyone, happy Friday!
It’s holiday season now, I have Hallmark fired up until the 25th and although our gatherings still aren’t quite the same as they once were, I will find ANY excuse to make a cheese board. I put together a Keto Cheese Plate 101 tutorial (scroll down to see the most delicious photo below), and some of the recipes I used to make it are below that.
That strawberry chia jam is no joke, by the way. The chia seeds thicken the jam so it tastes like the real stuff, and the seeds themselves just blend in with the strawberries, so it’s a perfect mix.
Keto on,
Amanda :)
Keto Cheese Plate 101
Isn’t it exciting that even if you’re eating keto, you can still enjoy a keto-friendly cheese plate? While muggles may default to traditional honey and crackers as accompaniments, there’s a lot you can add in terms of flavor, texture, and umami that’s not just keto-friendly – it’s delicious!

What’s a Wicked Good Member?
Here’s the thing, being a published cookbook author is a grind. Most publishers want to pay you a per recipe rate that’s equal to or less than the cost of ingredients required to make the food itself, and as soon as you’re due for a good royalty check, they stop promoting your book so you never meet the threshold. So, I decided to start publishing my own cookbooks and working directly with you all to make recipes you’re looking for. Sure it’s cool to see my stuff on the shelves at Barnes & Noble, but I think this new membership is a lot cooler.
What you get:
No Promos: As a VIP member, you won’t get promo emails. Woo! You might see some text ads in my email newsletter like this one because it goes to everyone, but that’s it.
Special Requests: As you know, my vibe is more whole-food-focused, and lately I’ve been trying to get creative with egg and dairy-free, so nothing is off the table. When you become a Wicked Good VIP Member, you can request recipes at any time, and I will do my best to create them for you, and likely use them in a future cookbook.
Cookbooks: The biggest benefit is, of course, access to the cookbooks I have published up until this point, and in the future, as long as you’re a member. I am releasing new cookbooks quarterly. Currently, there are 5 cookbooks available to you as a VIP member, and you get a new cookbook every quarter (plus discounts on the print editions when they release).

Here are a few pages from some of my recent cookbooks:
The recipes I’ve been producing for these cookbooks are my favorites of all time, and I also come to the table with the perspective of being a full-time working mom, so I totally get the time crunch that we all find ourselves in, and I work to make recipes that can work for everyone to follow a keto lifestyle in the most delicious way possible.
I’d love for you to join my inner circle and become a Wicked Good VIP Member so I can spend more time in the kitchen cooking for you, and less time writing these promotions. I work with a lovely book designer who makes all my stuff pretty, so your membership fees basically go right to her :)
I love you, thank you for being here!
