What do you eat on Keto?
- Meats: ZERO CARBS • Beef- Ground beef, Steak, Ribs, and Roasts • Pork- Chops, Ribs, BACON, Loins, sausage • Chicken/ Turkey- Thighs w/ skin or wings are the best because breasts are high in protein. However, you CAN eat breasts, just have to eat more fat to compensate. • Fish- Tuna, Salmon, Cod, Haddock, etc. • Shrimp/ Lobster- Go crazy, use lots of butter! • Pepperoni
-Cheese: MOST are no carb, almost all are low carb • Mozerella & Cheddar- Buy in bulk, they freeze well and are insanely versatile! • Colby jack, pepper jack, monterrey jack • Taco style, Mexican style • Parmesan, Asiago • Ricotta- Freezes well, very versatile • Cottage cheese- Good to throw in your lunch with berries, usually around 4-8g of Carbs per serving • Cream Cheese- buy 3 pack at Costco Freezes very well, this is one of the things that I always glance at whenever I go to the store, and always buy on sale
- Vegetables: No potatoes! Get your carbs from veggies!!! • Leafy greens- Spinach, Spring mix, Kale, Romaine • Zucchini- Great for a noodle substitute! • Avacado- Awesome source of natural fat! • Eggplant • Brussels sprouts • Tomato • Spaghetti Squash- Versatile, makes a great spaghetti substitute and is even great for making hash browns!! • Cucumber • Peppers- Jalepeño, banana, green/ red/ yellow/ orange bell • Broccoli- Great with cheese, steamed or just raw! • Asparagus- Awesome roasted or sautéed with bacon and garlic! • Cauliflower- AWESOME potato substitute!! • Celery- Great with cream cheese or all natural peanut butter! • Cabbage • Pickles (Read nutrition labels, watch for sugar and carbs) • Olives • Green beans- Awesome sautéed in bacon grease with garlic, (watch portion size, though). • Onions- Red, yellow: use somewhat sparingly, to taste
- Fruits: Most are a no-no, especially bananas, oranges and grapes. • Strawberries • Blueberries • Raspberries • Blackberries • Lemon/ Limes- Adds great flavor!
- Nuts (grams of Carbs per 100 grams, or 3.5 oz) • Pecans/ Brazil (4g) • Macadamia (5g) • Hazelnut/ Walnut/ Peanut (7g) • Pine (9g) • Almond (10g) Kirkland almonds at Costco • Pistachio (18g) • Cashew (27g)
- Oils/ Fats • Coconut Oil • Butter: Kerry Gold is best but just make sure it's REAL butter and not a spread or margarine • Olive Oil • Vinaigrette • Hollandaise • Bacon/ sausage grease • MCT oil- easily ordered online/ in specialty stores
-Dressings/ Condiments/ Fats • Ranch, Blue cheese, Cesar, Thousand Island, Balsamic- Watch carbs/ sugar, but there's tons of brands, so you can find one you love! • Mayo- Natural/ organic is best, but I use Hellmann's all the time. • Aioli • Heinz "NO SUGAR ADDED" Ketchup or sugar free ketchup • G. Hughes brand sugar free BBQ sauce • Yellow/ Spicy Brown Mustard • Soy sauce • Hot sauce
- Liquids: Use as base for sauces/ soups • Heavy Whipping Cream (HWC) • Broths/ Stocks: Stay away from reduced fat. Bone broth is awesome!
- Snacks • Pepperoni • Slim Jims/ jerky (watch carbs) • Homemade cheese its/ tortilla chips • Cheese • Pork rinds (0 carbs, very versatile. Can be used as breading, nacho substitute or even sprinkled with cinnamon & stevia and eaten like cereal with Almond milk and tastes like cinnamon toast crunch!)
- Drinks • WATER- Lots of it! • Crystal Light- Tons of options and very convenient! • Tea with stevia • Coffee- Add a Tablespoon of coconut oil or MCT oil, Stevia, heavy whipping cream and imitation vanilla/ Hazelnut or Cocoa powder & peppermint *BOOM* Homemade creamer!
- Alcoholic Beverages • Beers (grams of carbs per 12 oz serving) Bud Select 55 (1.9) MGD 64 (2.4) Rolling Rock Green Light (2.4) Michelob Ultra (2.6) Bud Select (3.1) Beck's Premier Light (3.2) Natural Light (3.2) Michelob Ultra Amber (3.7) Coors Light (5) Amsterdam Light (5) Bud Light (6.6) • Vodka: Whipped Vodka & flavored water or pineapple Pinnacle with crystal light are a couple of my favorites! • Whiskey shot (0g carbs) • Brandy shot (0g carbs) • Dry Martini (0g carbs) • Tequila shot (0g carbs) • Champagne (~1g per serving) • Dry wine (~2g per serving)
