Your Daily Dose Of Delicious with Keto Magic!
Lisa Boccuti
Welcome! I’m thrilled that you’re here, and ready to enjoy some of my favorite keto recipes.
When I was traveling the world, some of my favorite memories are of the food.
My niece, Frankie and I dream about going back to Venice, not only for the beauty, but for the ricotta and basil filled raviolis – an unforgettable dish that is so simple, yet incredibly delicious. Homemade pasta, bursting with fresh ricotta in a creamy pesto sauce. Yum!
Speaking of raviolis, my cravings for carb-heavy comfort foods is precisely why I created Keto Magic. You see, I realized (after perusing many different supermarkets and specialty shops looking for low carb and keto foods that I love (like raviolis) – that I needed to create these keto foods on my own. If you’ve ever been to the market looking for delicious keto foods, then I’m sure that you understand what I mean.
My Keto Journey Turns into Keto Magic
My cravings for carb heavy food propelled me into my kitchen for long days of keto recipe transformations, piles of dirty dishes (thanks honey) and gluten-free experiments – many successful, and some not so much, lol. However, my many recipe attempts have finally paid off, and the results are better than I could have ever imagined!
Stick around because I’ve created hundreds of keto and gluten-free versions that are just as tasty and satisfying as the real thing, and I’ll continue to post them here for you to enjoy too. It’s so much fun for me to create delicious, magical keto recipes to share with everyone.
ANOTHER LOVE?
YOU BET!
My Love of Food Photography
One of my other joys is food photography.
After creating a delicious low carb dish, then I find the perfect background and serving dish to photograph my culinary recipe creations on.
Since my first passion is cooking, I started out just wanting to learn photography basics – just enough to make my dishes look good.
Unexpectedly, I found that I really enjoy the entire process…from finding the right plates to decorating the scene with flowers.
If you are a photographer as well, then be sure to share you photos with me – I would love to see them!
My NJ Garden
Flowers and Food
In addition to being a mad scientist in the kitchen, I’m a big fan of flowers, and have a large garden in NJ. I love putting flowers in my food photos. I think flowers really add a special touch. It’s always a surprise to walk outside to see that my raspberries and blackberries are ripe – and I know that I need to pick them before the birds eat all of them.
Sweet Love
“Angels don’t always have wings sometimes they have whiskers.”
Aother big favorite of mine is my cat, Cupcake. She has a beautiful soul and I swear that we’re soulmates in a cat meets human sort of way.
She is a rescue cat that began coming around my backdoor and stealing my heart. Now she’s sits inside my home with me on the couch and she’s my little cuddle bug. I’m sure you’ll see many pics of her on my Instagram page, along with pics of my other kitties. I know that I shouldn’t have favorites, but I can’t help it
All Mixed Into One
To sum things up, I’m recipe creator, photographer, prop stylist, cat mom, antique enthusiast and gardener.
I look forward to sharing all of my little adventures with you…culinary and otherwise. This website has been a work in progress for over 10 years (possibly even longer), and I’m so excited to have finally launched it.
I always felt like I wasn’t ready – but it was time to get crackin’. I hope that you enjoy Keto Magic as much as I enjoyed creating it, and please share your adventures with me too – culinary and otherwise! I can’t wait to hear from you!
Much Love,
Lisa
