Description
No matter how well-intentioned, a diet will fail if it interferes with the other reason that we eat, which is to share time and good experiences with our loved ones. You must be able to eat with the people close to you, the same things, together.
The purpose of this book is to provide my ketomealsandrecipes.com viewers and subscribers a helpful reference, because I want you to be able to enjoy a low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free keto lifestyle based on whole foods, no refined sugar, and minimally-processed ingredients, and to serve non-keto friends and family any of the foods in this cookbook with confidence and pride that you will all enjoy the meal.
The recipes are reworks of classic, standard, and international recipes. The aim of the rework is to reproduce the mouth-feel and taste of each classic recipe, but focussing on using healthier, whole food ingredients and addressing the needs of those constrained by various health conditions, or who simply want a healthier alternative. These recipes are perfect for achieving weight loss goals, and to assist with diabetes and inflammatory ailments such as celiac disease, non-celiac gluten intolerance, gastrointestinal inflammation and cognitive issues that may be moderated with food.
The keto/low carb, gluten free, grain free approach is not just for metabolic issues – it is a healthy diet for the whole family. Eating is a social, bonding thing. The only way to stay on any lifestyle is if it is sharable. Done right, it is a lifestyle that you can enjoy for the rest of your life.
Each recipe also features the macronutrient ratio, carbohydrate content and food energy supplied by a typical serving, calculated using the USDA nutrient database and other sources, so that you have at your fingertips the effect of each meal.
