Keto Simple Swaps
As adults we know when we have to surrender something in order to change our path whether it’s TV time for gym time, or a cocktail for water. It’s difficult but we know what needs to be done in order to achieve a particular goal. The same goes for when we change our style of eating to obtain optimal health, and weight loss.
One of the things that makes it easier is results! Eating a ketogenic diet can offer results right away and that makes sticking to it just a little easier.
Here are some simple, tasty swaps that can make your transition a little smoother!
I don’t recommend “keto bread” while in the losing phase but there are things you can do to make eating some of your favorite foods delicious and easy!
Bread/buns/wraps: Instead of the basic buns, and bread you can use lettuce wraps, mushroom caps. Think of making little beef sliders with sauteed mushrooms as the bun.
Chips, Crisps, crackers: Forget the bland old crackers. Keto versions are so much yummier!!! Cucumber slices, pepperoni, and salami chips, cheese whisps and crisps, pork rinds, bacon pieces, celery. Visit www.eatcraveketo for the easiest, yummiest cheese cracker recipe in the world. 2 ingredients!! TWO!
Got Milk? NOPE! Unsweetened coconut or almond milk. Heavy whipping cream.
Bread Crumbs: Crushed pork rinds, and parmesan cheese, with seasoning of your choice.
Sugar: Erythritol, or stevia. I personally use swerve. You can get it here.
Pasta: Spaghetti squash. I buy a bunch of these when it is on sale because it can get pretty pricey in the fall/winter. I cook it up and freeze it in one cup portions. Zoodles Don’t have a spiralizer? You can get it here. Cauliflower, zucchini planks for lasagna!
