Answering Questions from Readers:
I love to hear from people who are readers of Kalyn’s Kitchen and will do my best to answer simple questions, although I don’t have the training or the time to give full-fledged dieting advice. If your question is about a specific recipe, please consider leaving it as a comment on that post so others can benefit from the answer.
How to Leave a Comment:
To leave a comment, just click where it says “Leave a Reply” at the end of the post. Some comments will come to me in an e-mail and won’t show up on the blog until I publish them, and I’m not sitting by the computer waiting for comments 100% of the time, so thanks for your patience!
Reach me Through Social Media:
I check in on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest most days, and try to respond to people who reach me there, but I can’t always keep up with comments on social media so if you really need to reach me, leaving a comment on the blog or sending e-mail is better.

My Thoughts About Reviewing Cookbooks or Products
This blog is about what I’m cooking in my own kitchen, so I’m only interested in talking about cookbooks or products I’ve personally used and would happily buy again. Because I have limited time to try new products or cookbooks, I’ve decided to no longer accept books or other products for review. I do love to mention cookbooks I’m using and talk about my favorite products on the blog, but when I do that I enjoy being able to tell my readers that I bought them myself. (If you’re a food blogger who has written a book, feel free to drop me a line to let me know about it and if it interests me I’ll be happy to buy your book.)
Working with Other Bloggers:
I don’t use guest posts of any kind, and don’t participate in any kind of sponsored campaigns. I’m always happy to have my work included in blogger recipe round-ups (as long as it doesn’t include the actual recipe and uses a format that features a photo plus a link to get the recipe from my site.)

Thank you for making available the removed from the site recipe for leftover turkey lasagna! After most of my six children began families of their own I stopped making the leftover lasagna recipe we all thoroughly enjoyed mainly because I no longer made the holiday meal and had no leftovers.
This year due to covid and other circumstances my single daughter and I decided our Christmas dinner would be the leftover turkey lasagna using deli turkey.
I couldn’t find my recipe. I couldn’t find it on your site. 😞 disappointment. Then it popped up in a deeper search! Yippee and thank you!
We know it is NOT healthy on any day other than Christmas Day so we will enjoy without guilt 🤗.
Oh good, so glad that worked out for you. And yes you have to have a few splurges during the holidays.!
Have you ever cooked with konjac noodles? I want to try the pasta salad recipe you posted this week but not sure I want to spend the money on palmini when I’ve not liked the canned hearts of palm previously. Does soaking it and pre-cooking it get rid of that brined flavoring? Thank you.
I haven’t tried Konjac noodles, sorry. I think if you boil the Palmini Pasta for 5 minutes as I recommend in that recipe it definitely makes the Palmini noodles taste more like pasta and have the texture of pasta and removes the brined taste they have when you use them right from the can. But I do like hearts of palm, so I can’t say for sure if you would like them. We have been loving them when they are cooked though!
Wish I knew what recipe this is referring to! You can leave a comment on the actual recipe.
Curious…when I purchase 1 of your affiliate products, how does it know to give you credit?
The link is an affiliate link to Amazon.com that has my account number in there somehow!
I saved the link for your fabulous Thai chicken soup ••• but, sadly, I got a message the link “has been removed” when I pulled up my saved email ID sent to myself. Can you teach into archives and forward it to me. This time I’ll copy and paste rather than save the link. (I still have the Thai chilies in the freezer, as you suggested, fun the last time I made it.)
Hi Ellen, sending it to you by e-mail.
I want to unsubscribe. Can’t find where you do that
If you are subscribed to something that comes by e-mail, there is a link at the bottom left on every e-mail that says, “CLICK HERE TO SAFELY UNSUBSCRIBE.”
That is the only way you can be subscribed to this site that I am aware of.
This ia not a comment or question about one certain recipe. I would like to know if your recipes are diabetic friendly. My son has type 1 and I have type 2
I’m not quite sure what your definition of “diabetic friendly” is. I don’t consider myself qualified to give dietary advice for a medical condition. But I will say that every recipe has nutritional information (below the instructions in the actual recipe) so if you know what requirements you are looking for, you can surely find recipes that are suitable.
If you are mostly looking for recipes that are low in carbs, you can find a category for that in the Recipe Index. I would estimate about 75% of my recipes are low in carbs, maybe a bit more.
Hi Kalyn, this isn’t a recipe question, although all your recipes are amazing, it is the pronunciation of your first name I am inquiring about. I named my daughter Ralyn, pronounced ‘Ray-Lin’, thinking I went a simple route, but it’s almost the last thing she’s been called in her 17 years -it’s usually.   ‘Rau-Lin’ amount other things. People usually just shorten her name to Ray.  Anyway, I’m curious of your names pronunciation and if you’ve had any similar issues?  Thank you!!!
Hi Shauna,
My name is pronounced Kay Lynn. But many people mispronounce it. I guess I am used to it, and it doesn’t bother me too much, but tell your daughter I know what she is going through. I do think having a distinctive spelling has been good for the internet! Glad you are enjoying the recipes.
Hi Kalyn! – Happy New Year 2021!
I wanted to let you know that we made this recipe yesterday! We used the follow items –
– For the beans, we used Camellia Brand dry cannellini beans.
– For the sausage, we used Butterball® Natural Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage 13 oz. Pack
– Fresh Basil we purchased from Publix.
– For the tomatoes, we used Muir Glen Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes – 14oz
Let me tell you, THIS WAS EXCELLENT!
I browned the low fat sausage until crispy and scraped the little charred bits from the pan to add to the stew. Fresh pressed garlic too! Next time we’ll make a double batch and freeze individual serving sizes!
Thanks for the great food! – Jenny
Glad you enjoyed it. But this comment is not on the recipe page, so I am not 100% sure which recipe it was. Maybe Cannellini Bean and Sausage Stew?
I simply love the recipe . Twice baked cabbage. It was very good and I will pass it on
Thanks Linda, so glad you enjoyed it!
I love this website for the wonderful low carb recipes. I’ve made many of them and they are great.
What I’m hating is the bombardment of popup ads all over the pages (each and every page). I can barely stand to navigate the site any more.
If you are talking about the ad that shows up around the edges of the content, I have a complaint in to my ad network about that. Hopefully it can be removed quickly.
There shouldn’t be a lot of pop-up ads in general though. If you see one that pops up if you can send me a screenshot I can get it removed.
Thanks for letting me know. I use the site mostly on desktop and don’t see pop-ups but I don’t want them on mobile either.
Hello. I just wanted to say thank you so much for this blog. It’s organized very clearly, and I love that it isn’t gimmick-y or preachy about any particular diet. Using your site has made finding new carb-conscious recipes actually enjoyable rather than a chore. You rock.
Thanks so much for the nice thoughts. I am so glad my approach is helpful for you. I am not into telling people what they should eat; I believe everyone gets to make their own food choices! So I am just here to offer options.
Hi there
I really don’t like stevia sweetener. Do you think I could use Bulk Powders Zero cal syrup or huni as an alternative?Â
I’ve tried to get monk fruit sweetener but it’s hard to source in the uk.Â
Thank you in advance
Emma x
I’m not familiar with either of those sweeteners, but I think most any granulated zero calorie sweetener can be used interchangeably for the sweetener I use. Just be sure it says “granulated” on the package. Also some packages will say “measures 1:1 like sugar” and that is a good clue that it will work. Good luck!
Neither of the vinaigrette sauces are available to me so how do I make the basil vinaigrette sauces from scratch ?
If you google Vinaigrette Dressing you will find hundreds (if not thousands) of recipes for Vinaigrette Dressing. One that is emulsified (with a whisk or in a blender/food processor) will give best results in my recipe. Hope you enjoy!
I pinned one of your recipes years ago. It is one of our all time favorites. I can not find it on your website. Could you send it?Â
It was vegetarian whole wheat pasta with fried kale, tomato sauce and goat cheese
Hi Sarah,
I e-mailed you that recipe and the link, and for anyone else who sees this, here is the printer-friendly recipe for Vegetarian Whole Wheat Pasta with Fried Kale, Tomato Sauce, and Goat Cheese. Hope you enjoy!
I have started to not like eggs. Â Is there a substitute for your muffin recipes.Â
I’m afraid I have absolutely zero experiencing substituting other things for eggs. But I bet you could find a lot about that on Google because I know some people do it successfully.
I tried this recipe today, but I used “better than bouillon” in beef. I didn’t have fresh mushrooms or tomatoes, but substituted canned instead. It was delicious anyway!
I’m afraid I’m not able to tell what recipe you are referring to?
Thrilled to find your website! Should quinoa be avoided in phase 1 of South Beach? Looks like it’s considered a protein but a carb too…? Thanks!
I know that in the original South Beach Diet quinoa was phase 2 or 3. Now that South Beach has morphed into a different program, I haven’t kept up with all those changes. I don’t know for sure which plan you’re following but you may have to consult a book for the version of SBD you’re using to find an accurate answer.
How can I register on your website and receive updates and newsletter and be part of your community?
Hi Bobbie,
You can click here and that will take you to the page where you enter your e-mail to sign up. Welcome!
Hi Kaylin, Just have to say that I really enjoy getting your newsletter and even though I don’t make all the recipes, I really enjoy reading them. The ones I have made, I’ve really enjoyed. The one-sheet cabbage and Kielbasa, to which I also add a few chicken thighs (cooked on a separate sheet) is fabulous! You offer so much variety for us low-carbers. Thank you!
BTW I’m in UT as well, just up (down?) the road in Park City. Stay safe and keep cooking!
Best, Kathy
Hi Kathy,
Thanks so much for that nice feedback! And always fun to hear from someone in Utah. You stay safe too, crazy times we are living through.
Hi Kalyn
I have just started to use my bread maker again due to the lock down with the coronavirus. Just a quick question I have a bulgar and red &white Quinoa seed mix, do I need to soak these for 1 hour before putting it into the bread machine?
thank you
Liz
Hi Liz,
I wish I felt confident to definitely answer the question, but I’m not really a bread-baking expert by any means! But in the bread machine recipe where I used bulgur wheat I did soak it for an hour to soften the bulgur, so I think that’s what I’d do with this type of mix as well. Good luck; hope that works for you!
