The keto diet can help you too

Why do some people find the keto diet difficult?

When first starting the keto diet, many beginners find they are eating the same foods over and over again.

This leads them to feel that the keto diet is restrictive, or unable to meet all their nutritional needs.

Fortunately, neither of these conclusions is correct.

The keto diet is able to meet all your nutritional needs when followed correctly.

Further, there is an almost never ending range of foods and meals that are keto friendly.

There is no need to eat the same few meals far too often.

When you spend a little time reading recipes and learning a few basic cookery skills you’ll be amazed.

Not only does the keto diet allow for an amazing range of meals, they are super tasty too.

Feel like a steak with a great keto sauce, a side of chili prawns? You won’t want to go back to your present diet when you see how good eating keto can be.

With that in mind we at living well with keto have put together some of the most popular keto diet books for beginners.

The Easy 5-Ingredient Ketogenic Diet Cookbook: Low-Carb, High-Fat Recipes for Busy People on the Keto Diet

This book comes as a paperback, spiral bound or on kindle.

We enjoyed the kindle version although we can see a lot of advantages to having the book as a spiral bound.

It would certainly make keeping the book open while you follow your recipe instructions.

This book places the emphasis on easy to follow recipes that use no more than 5 ingredients each. We found that some recipes went over this 5 ingredient limit but they remained super easy to make.

By using just a few easy to find ingredients you’ll be able to make 125 amazing, single pot keto friendly meals.

The Essential Vegan Keto Cookbook: 65 Healthy & Delicious Plant-Based Ketogenic Recipes: A Keto Diet Cookbook

If you’re vegan and wanting to benefit from the keto diet, this book will be for you.

A Vegan keto diet plan can be challenging to follow, and this book will show you how to keep on track.

The book offers sunflower seed waffles, Tex-Mex cauliflower steaks with guacamole, creamy “cheeseball” bites, and delicious desserts like a macadamia nut mug cake.

We found the recipes easy to follow, and even non vegans would love the results.

On the negative side, some of the ingredients may be hard to find, and many of the recipes depend on soy or coconut milk. If you don’t like these ingredients this may not be the book for you.

However, the truth is that being vegan and keto is not an easy choice, and so these recipes are not going to be quite as easy as those in standard keto books.

This is a fantastic book, the meals are interesting and delicious.  There are full meals, snacks, desserts and more.

The bood also gives a macro and calorie breakdown for each serving size.

The introduction helps the newcomer to find their way around the keto lifestyle without  making mistakes.

All the recipes are delicous, and there are lots of very useful tips along the way too.

DIRTY, LAZY, KETO (Revised and Expanded): Get Started Losing Weight While Breaking the Rules

We absolutely loved this book, even if its about meals you haven’t cooked yourself at home!

If you’re not familiar with dirty keto it’s a way of being super lazy with your food prep.

While we don’t recommend dirty keto as a long term plan, it certainly has it’s place in a keto diet.

For those times when you don’t want to cook at all, this book offers, in their own words:

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just a coffee? We all enjoy fast food! The DIRTY, LAZY, KETO Fast Food Guide: Ten Net Carbs or Less shares complete lists of what you can order at 35 different restaurants. There is SO MUCH MORE to order out there besides the “bunless burger!”

They go on to list what foods you can eat in just about every restaurant and fast food place out there.

Not really a recipe book we know, but a lot of fun and it will help you to get great food while you’re out and about.

So if you don’t always want to cook, and don’t feel like you should be the keto police at all times, we think you’ll enjoy this book.

The Laska’s have done the work for you so you don’t have to.

This book proves that you can enjoy all the healthy benefits of the keto diet, while at the same time enjoy eating out.

Keto-Green 16: The Fat-Burning Power of Ketogenic Eating + The Nourishing Strength of Alkaline Foods = Rapid Weight Loss and Hormone Balance

This is another specialist keto cookbook by the number one best-selling author of The Hormone Fix.

The author explains:

Hormone production dips as a woman ages, leading to increased visceral fat. By pairing keto-diet staples with foods that bring the body’s pH to a more alkaline level, you’ll shed belly fat while balancing the hormones responsible for that bulkier midsection. And by fueling your brain with ketones—like rocket fuel instead of gasoline—you’ll make better decisions, including healthier choices for what to eat. The unique nutritional balance of the Keto-Green 16 diet also boosts mood.

The recipes in this book also have versions for vegetarians and vegans which is a nice touch too.

It also promises to cut out your chances of the keto flu. So if this is an issue for you, you may want to consider following the food suggestions in this book.

Certainly a book well worth reading and following, especially if you’ve had a hard time losing weight.
