If you are not familiar with the ketogenic diet, it is basically the modern answer to the Atkins diet. You’ll follow a diet of low-carb, high-protein foods to help promote fat burning and * hopefully * gain more energy. To take the guesswork out of meal planning, we found quick keto dinners that make your life so much easier. Think low-carb chicken recipes, bunless burgers, and more. Read on to stay on the right track with these recipes.
1. Keto Cauli Tots:
Sometimes you just want dinner to be cheese; we feel you. For those times, strain out some veggies with this little baked cauliflower.
2. Keto Chicken and Lettuce Wraps
Creamy, crowd-pleasing ketogenic blue cheese chicken salad is the definition of comfort food. This recipe has options to use the leftover Instant Pot chicken or the store-bought rotisserie.
3. Shrimp fajitas
There is nothing easier than a simple skillet dinner. Toss shrimp, bell peppers, and onions in a spicy marinade, and in under 30 minutes, you’re ready to dip. Don’t forget to serve them inside low carb tortillas.
4. Chicken rice bowl
Raise your hand if you’ve missed the rice bowls while doing keto. This low carb version uses cauliflower rice instead and doesn’t stop at the sushi bowl fixings.
