SynopsisKeto is often a meat-heavy diet, but it doesn't have to be. If you're aiming to enrich your plate with more plant foods, this book is packed with nourishing recipes to help you do just that. Veteran vegan author Liz MacDowell provides more than 80 recipes that are full of vegetables but are also flexible enough to accommodate a variety of eating styles. Want to add a little meat to your meal (or have a family member who does)? Look to the section of "protein toppers" that you can mix and match with the entrees-there are plant-based protein toppers as well as meat-based ones. Looking to add a little more carbs to a dish? For many of the recipes, Liz provides tips on boosting the carb content with starchy vegetables and healthy whole grains. You'll also find eight weeks of meal plans at two different net carb levels, which make it easy to combine the book's recipes into satisfying menus. They come complete with grocery shopping lists and make use of leftovers, saving you money and time in the kitchen. Liz also offers a rundown of popular eating styles and schedules, from "If It Fits Your Macros" to carb cycling. The goal here is to feel as good as possible. Plant-Forward Keto is here to help you dial in what works best for your body, whether you eat an entirely plant-based diet or incorporate a little bit of animal protein, and whether you stick to a strictly ketogenic way of eating or up your carb intake from time to time. It's all about flexibility! Book jacket., Whether you are keto, low-carb, carb liberal, vegan, or occasionally all of the above, Plant-Forward Keto brings an array of options and flexible meal plans to go beyond the diet and embrace your love of food!
