I picked this book up on kindle unlimited purely for the recipes。 Having followed keto diet since 2019 and lost 90lbs I now tend to maintain or go low carb。 However I am always looking for new recipes and was interested in a no meat version of keto as it isn’t easy to achieve。 For uk people I will say this， this book is a US book at a guess so works in net carbs。 In the uk are carbs are worked out differently and fibre is not subtracted from our carb intake like in the net carb method。 So many o I picked this book up on kindle unlimited purely for the recipes。 Having followed keto diet since 2019 and lost 90lbs I now tend to maintain or go low carb。 However I am always looking for new recipes and was interested in a no meat version of keto as it isn’t easy to achieve。 For uk people I will say this， this book is a US book at a guess so works in net carbs。 In the uk are carbs are worked out differently and fibre is not subtracted from our carb intake like in the net carb method。 So many of the recipes would not be suitable or wouldn’t leave you with much carb allowance for the rest of the day。 On another note though， the recipes looked good。 Ingredients was things I generally would have in my cupboard/fridge and from a low carb diet point of view would would great。 They were well explained and easy to follow。 I especially liked the strawberry cheesecake smoothie bowl recipe！ This is on kindle unlimited to see if you subscribe to the service。 It’s hard to find a recipe book I think （Especially when diet specific） to please and suit all。 But as a ‘guide’ this could work great for US people （Or UK if you follow low carb and not keto）。 3 stars。 。。。more

I’ve been looking for ways to reduce meat while doing Keto， so I thought this would be a great book to read。 Unfortunately， most of the recipes are too high in carbs and use non Keto ingredients。 I’m a strict Keto gal and this isn’t the book for me。
