Julia,
I travel quite a bit and have a hard time staying in ketosis. I take along keto friendly snacks to each while traveling but most of them are cost prohibitive for me. Do you have any recipes so I can make my own snacks that will keep while traveling? Nutrition bars, nut combinations or other suggestions.
Thank you!
Do you have access to a Costco membership? Their selection of macadamia nuts, almonds, walnuts, and pecans are more affordably priced than any other place I’ve seen. They also have some keto-friendly snacks like Whisps cheese crisps, protein bars (~$1 each), sugar-free beef jerky, and sugar-free beef sticks. I’ve experimented with making my own nutrition bars, but making them shelf-stable with low-cost ingredients is difficult.
Do you have a brand for protein bars at Costco? Seems all are high carb/sugar
They are called “Kirkland Signature Protein Bars” and available in Cookie Dough and Brownie at my local warehouse. Something like 2 g net carbs (subtracting both fiber and sugar alcohols) per bar. I’m not a huge fan of the texture, but some people love it. The other caveat is that its fiber comes from tapioca starch, which appears to affect my ability to stay in ketosis. https://www.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature-Protein-Bars%2C-Chocolate-Chip-Cookie-Dough%2C-20-count%2C-2-pack.product.100423971.html
I make cheese crisps with sharp cheddar squares and a bit of ranch powder. I have also used taco seasonings. Line a cookie sheet with parchment, space out 3 rows of 4. Sprinkle with powder , if wanted. Bake 300 degrees for 20 min. Cool on cooling rack. Place in paper bag with paper towel when crisp. I also have added pepperoni to these to spice em up. They stay good on a shelf for several days.
That sounds like a delicious snack, similar to my parmesan crisps but easier to make. Thanks for sharing — I’m going to try this!
Julia,
Just made your savory Tofu Stir Fry. So delicious!
Awesome! I’d appreciate it if you could leave a review on the tofu recipe post.
Hi I’m type 2 diabetic and I’m currently doing 24 hour fasts only having a high fat meal but still crave something nice do you have any suggestions
If you’re looking for something sweet, I recommend lemon cheesecake fat bombs: https://www.savorytooth.com/lemon-fat-bombs/
For something savory, what about pan-seared salmon or swordfish? They’re quick to prepare and delicious to eat.
I’m wondering if organic soy milk is ok for keto diet?
Depends on the brand and if it’s unsweetened or not. Check the nutrition label to calculate net carbs. Ideally, it should be under a few grams per 1 cup (8 oz) serving.
Hi Julia,
I’ve just started my keto journey today and are emptying the food cupboards of grains and pasta etc, and off to shop for keto only food…. I will miss rice though, thank you for a easy and straight forward and organised resource.
I’m 52 ,New Zealand male and weigh 104 kgs and workout 3 times a week yet I cant seem to lose these extra kilos so I’m giving this a go ,I will keep you updated on my progress ,
Kind regards
Clay.
Sounds like a great start, Clay. I look forward to hearing about your progress!
Hey Clay, for what it’s worth – I’m your doppelganger 🙂 52, Irish and was 103Kg before I tried Keto – same issue as you, couldn’t shift the kilos working out. It does work – I lost 6Kg pretty quickly and have kept it off despite falling off the Keto wagon several times (I love my glass of wine at night). Keto also sorted out all my digestive problems, I’ve never felt better. Best of luck with it.
Am starting my journey today on the keto diet I was wondering how are you making out on yours?
I have problems with diets that have mushrooms artichokes or coconut, or pineapple, or raisins. Im highly allergic to all those foods.
Pineapples and raisins are pretty unusual to find in low carb recipes, given their high sugar content, so that’s not an issue. As for mushrooms/artichokes/coconut, you’ll just have to watch out for them and avoid recipes that contain them, which shouldn’t be too difficult.
My aunt just shared your page with me. What a well organized, beautiful resource. Thank you!
Thanks, Jaime! I hope you find the site to be useful.
Have just subscribed and I am so excited to try your amazing recipes. Breakfast has always been a challenge and looking forward to trying your blueberry muffins
Thank you, Karen! Hope you enjoy the blueberry muffins — one of my favorites.
I have just discovered you and subscribed. I need some quick on the go breakfast ideas….the keto friendly milkshakes are catching my eye…what are your favourites?
The milkshake smoothie and the blueberry muffins are probably my favorites.
I’m new to the keto diet. I’m looking forward to eating healthier, and losing weight. I can’t wait to try some of the recipes.
I’m excited to try your 4-ingredient Keto Ice Cream. I looked at other recipes, but many said Keto but were not. I also signed up to receive your recipes by email. Thank you.
You’re welcome. Hope you enjoy the recipes!
I am just starting and ordered the magnesium supplements you recommend but I’m wondering if I also need other vitamins like B complex or things like turmeric ? Thank you! I’m excited to get started.
Personally, I only take magnesium supplements and try to get other things (like potassium) from the foods I eat. It’s hard to say what you should take because everybody is different and I’m not a medical professional who can provide advice. Let me know if you have any other questions, and best of luck on getting started!
I ordered the Nutritional yeast by Braggs. It has the B vitamins and you can just sprinkle it on your food. It has a cheesy flavor.
