Keto way of life!

I came across this way of life some time ago and became quite interested in it. Keto is incorporating low carbs high fat into your diet. So, you cut off sugar, carbs such as rice, spaghetti, potatoes out of your diet and get your carbs from vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower and spinach. You are to eat protein such as meat, poultry and eggs. The idea is that you get your energy from fat rather than carbs and this, in turn, gets your body into a state of ketosis which helps you lose weight.

OK, I was online looking for innovative ideas for lunch time meals and I came across cloud bread. I got the recipe from the web and tried it. It came out really nice. Here are some pictures of my homemade cloud bread.

Ingredients:3 eggs, 3 tablespoons of cream cheese and baking powder.


Procedure: Separate the egg yolks from the white. On a separate bowl, mix egg whites with one spoon of baking powder until fluffy and stiff. On another bowl, mix egg yolks and cream cheese. Then gently pour the egg yolk combination to the egg white and gently fold in ensuring that little air is lost. Now put the baking sheet on a tray and bake for 20 minutes. Your oven may need adjusting depending on how hot it gets.



I made home made a burger with only minced meat and a tiny bit of salt. This meal is for fussy eaters on keto way of life who want to keep it simple.

What simple menus can you suggest?
