Low carb, keto and dairy-free recipes

A common misunderstanding regarding low carb and keto is that you can only eat meat, eggs, and dairy. This is certainly one way of doing it and it works fine for some people, but it’s not the only way to enjoy a low carb lifestyle.

Let the recipes below inspire you and show you that following a low carb lifestyle without dairy doesn’t have to be complicated. Instead, we’re here to help you make it amazingly delicious. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a snack, we’ve got you covered.

Why should I avoid dairy products?

Excluding dairy from your diet can be an effective way to speed up your weight loss and help reversing type 2 diabetes. Dairy products contain not only milk sugar (lactose), but also milk protein (casein), which stimulates insulin secretion more than other types of protein. This is why milk is great for a growing baby, but not that great for an adult who wants to lose weight.

Wondering what to eat for lunch or dinner? May we suggest a creamy casserole, fresh salad or maybe a juicy hamburger to sink your teeth into?

Crunchy fries, creamy mash and roasted veggies will not disappoint as sidekicks to your favorite protein.

Here are the true sources of flavor! What meal wouldn’t be better with some chimichurri, salsa verde or a big dollop or mayonnaise?
