What Kind of Foods Are in These Recipes?

What is Keto?
Keto is a low-carb and high-fat diet similar to the famous Atkins Diet. The keto diet’s main idea is that the low-carb speed up the fat-burning process to help you lose weight faster. The number of carbs you need on the keto diet can vary; however, most individuals stick between 20-50g per day. You want to stay away from bread, pasta, rice, fried foods, and high-carb fruits for the keto diet. Most keto dieters stick to high protein foods such as chicken, beef, and dairy products.
