Keto Recipe Inspiration for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Keto ingredients

Following a ketogenic meal plan means that much of your diet will consist of healthy oils, fats, nuts and seeds, along with some clean protein. Kickstart your body into ketosis by using Garden of Life’s Dr. Formulated Keto Fit every day for the first week.

 

 

Fibre is very important when following a keto diet, so be sure to include non-starchy vegetables and Dr. Formulated Keto Meal and Organic MCT Powder.

 

 

Use the following sample menu along with our additional keto recipes as a guide and be sure to use organic ingredients. Note: if you have a sensitivity to caffeine, use Keto Meal instead of Keto Fit.
