Info about keto diet great - recipes not so much

January 19, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The information in the first section was great, but the recipes were not as helpful as I had hoped. The ingredients are very expensive - I spent $130 shopping for just the first three days of meals and that didn't include the leg of lamb, which I skipped. Also, as a working mom, I would consider the amount of kitchen time as extreme. As an example, Day One includes a one-hour baking project for breakfast, followed by deviled eggs with bacon and avocado as a mid-morning snack, followed by a cooked chicken lunch, then a smoothie mid-afternoon snack, and a leg of lamb dinner with a side. Again, that's just the first day. Section 1 was great and I learned a great deal about keto lifestyle and issues. I would love the author to revise the meal plan and recipe sections to limit each day to no more than 90 minutes in the kitchen including prepping foods like boiling eggs, frying bacon, or cooking chicken which aren't currently included in her recipes times.

Easy to understand and follow. Great recipes and conversion charts. Gives you a real understanding of how our body breaks down fat as opposed to carbs.

Keto diet intro info is good, but I'd rather not pay for recipes I have to adjust/adapt myself.

August 5, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Not sure what "dietician in training" means, but maybe that's why her nutrition info is off? Carb counts per serving are lower than actual count. Several recipes are so basic you have to wonder why someone would need a recipe to know that you can add peanut butter to a chocolate protein shake? the same recipe that comes with the protein powder, why pay for the repeat in a recipe book? and then...she gives the carb count as if there were NO carbs in the protein powder? No carbs in the added cocoa powder? If baking cocoa is 3 carbs per TBSP, then you can't claim that adding only 1 tsp doesn't add any carbs to the shake! There are 3 tsps. in 1 TBSP, thus you ARE adding 1 carb. Or a recipe that uses 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream which totals 24 carbs, split into 8 servings, yet claims 2 carbs per portion? Or a recipe that makes 12 fat bombs and calls for, amongst other ingredients, 1 1/4 c of cream cheese PLUS 3/4 c heavy whipping cream , yet mysteriously comes in at only 1 carb per fat bomb? Every cream cheese I checked had 2 carbs pr OZ, thus 16 carbs in 1 cup, so 1 1/4 c of cream cheese has 20 carbs...mmmm...Add the 3/4 heavy whipping cream carbs and suddenly the recipe DROPS to 12 carbs total? To stay in ketosis, it's essential to count your carbs exactly. No info is given as to author's idea of what defines a keto diet, so maybe she is going by the broader "low carb"definition of "less than 100 carbs a day" or "you can subtract fiber and count only the net carbs", but for those who want to stay at under 20 carbs per day, this is not the recipe book for you unless you can figure the carbs yourself and make the necessary adjustments. A keto beginner does not need to get blindsided by false carb count info. Also, how easy is it to maintain a lifestyle diet with ingredients like lamb, Dungeness crab, Haddock, Salmon, Sea scallops, sole fillets, sirloin? Definitely not for a "real life family daily eating plan" in my opinion. Very disappointed.

Labor intensive, unsavory recipes

July 2, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I bought this cookbook because tha macros were already figured in and for the recipes. Since I’m new to the Keto diet I needed help finding recipes with the right macros. The recipes are VERY labor intensive. You will spend quite a long time in the kitchen preparing these meals. That’s ok if you like being in the kitchen (I don’t) for long periods of time. Secondly, the recipes are not very tasty so I resented spending all that time in the kitchen for meals that were not that great. Finally, I was hungry for a large portion of the day as these meals are not very filling. To sum up: I wish I’d bought a different Keto book. :-(

Even though book lacked many recipe pictures, it provided easy to follow recipes (vs some books with a picture). The author was informative and had a strong knowledge on Keto. I loved the many substitutions for recipes and ways to cook the meals. Beginning of book was very educational with fundamental on low carb meals and the end of book provided excellent resources (blogs, websites, links, conversion tables, food calculators, etc). I feel like this book has equipped me to be knowledgeable and successful with my new Keto low carb journey. Highly recommend this books to others.

Recipes are not quick fix recipes. Most have secondary recipes required to complete the dish.

This cookbook is great for the SAHM. Not so great for someone that works outside the home. I was very disappointed with the 2 week meal plan.Read more
