About Kasey
Hey, I’m Kasey Trenum, the creator of
KaseyTrenum.com.
I’ve been blogging since 2009, and over the years this site has grown into a place where I share easy, family-friendly low-carb and keto recipes that actually work in real life. I focus on simple food made with familiar ingredients, because that’s what most families need day to day.
If a recipe is complicated, fussy, or doesn’t reheat well, it doesn’t make it onto this site.

Why Low-Carb Is Personal for Our Family
Low-carb eating isn’t a trend for us. It’s been part of our life for a long time.
My husband and one of our children have Type 1 diabetes, so our family has been counting carbs for over 26 years. Long before keto was popular, we were learning how to make meals that were filling, comforting, and realistic while managing blood sugar every single day.
After having my third and fourth babies in my 40s, I personally turned to a keto and low-carb way of eating to lose the baby weight. I’m also a picky eater, and I grew up on Southern comfort food, so I struggled to find low-carb recipes that actually tasted good and felt like real meals.
That’s what pushed me to start creating my own.
What You’ll Find Here
Since 2017, I’ve focused this site on easy, low-carb and keto recipes for families, not just individuals. Everything I share is tested in my own kitchen and made with real life in mind.
My recipes are:
- Simple to make
- Family-approved
- Made with everyday ingredients
- Good for leftovers and meal prep
- Easy to fit into busy schedules
Over the years, my recipes have been shared millions of times and viewed by readers all over the world. I still cook the same way I always have, for my family first.
Real Life, Real Kitchen
I’m a Southern girl married to my college sweetheart, Gary, and we’ve been married for over 29 years. We have four kids and homeschool, which means our kitchen sees a lot of action.
Most days you’ll find me:
- Cooking dinner
- Testing recipes
- Cooking alongside one of the kids
- Or gathered around the kitchen island with my family
This site is built around real life, not a studio kitchen.
Media & Features
Over the years, my work has been featured by outlets including:
- NPR
- HLN (Headline News)
- NBC affiliates
- CBS affiliates
- Parade Magazine
- All You Magazine
- Guidepost
I’ve also taught workshops, spoken at women’s events, and
authored a book early in my blogging journey.
