NOTES
- Find low carb substitutions for your current favorite recipes. Try almond meal instead of wheat flour and a sugar-free sweetener, like stevia or monk fruit, instead of cane sugar.
- Maintain a healthy balance of protein and fats. Sometimes it’s hard to get enough fat and/or protein in a ketogenic diet, so be sure to include a balance of both in your dishes.
