They’re all irresistibly good, they’re all easy to make, and they’re all keto-diet friendly. The keto diet has soared in popularity in recent years, proving that it’s more than just another foodie trend. Why? Because it’s one of the easiest diets to follow! Keto fans eat mostly whole foods, with an emphasis on good quality protein rather than processed carbs. Eating this way has loads of benefits for the body. Not only does it promote a healthy weight, but it also helps you feel, sleep, and move better. It also still allows you your favorite foods, like a hearty bacon cheeseburger skillet, spicy empanadas, and meaty lasagna. From loaded burger bowls to cheesy taco skillet, these meals are nutritious and delicious.
