No matter how you approach your diet and eating, I think we can all agree the best meals are the ones that we actually enjoy to make and continue to come back to, time and time again. Truly some of my favorite dinner recipes, keto or not, are the simplest ones. One pot, or one pan, sheet pans, crock pots and instant pots, 5 ingredients or less, ready in under 30 minutes. I find easy weeknight meals to be fun to develop and create, but even more I love sharing these with all of you, especially because I love knowing that you are actually going to make them.
Since I started the ketogenic diet in January 2017, I have been enjoying getting creative with my meals and discovering simpler ways to make delicious weeknight eats without all the fuss. I have also personally been seeing wonderful results, both in my health and my athletic performance and the cognitive effects have also been amazing. While I know the keto diet isn’t necessarily the catch-all answer or the proper dietary approach for ALL, I don’t believe there is ANYone diet is the perfect one-size-fits-all hat that will work for all – I do know that I have been contacted by so many of you who you’ve found great success in this style of eating looking for more recipe ideas.
