A Typical Day On The Keto Diet – a day in the life of Low Carb & Ketogenic Diet meals
A Typical Day On The Keto Diet
When you’ve been on the keto diet, you get into a routine. Enjoying mixing and matching ingredients to create delicious meals is easy with the choice of low carb foods available.
Here’s a typical day on the keto diet, to give you ideas for meals to enjoy – whether you’re a beginner or veteran Keto follower, you’re sure to find inspiration. (Here’s my full keto food list for beginners for you.)
Day In The Life of Keto – Breakfast
Breakfast usually involves fried eggs, vegetables and a couple of portions of healthy fats. In the above example, I’ve put together a Keto Breakfast Hash which includes beef mince, mushrooms, radishes and fried eggs.
You could enjoy eggs any way and with any vegetables you like on the side. To elevate the fat content, you could enjoy your breakfast with a side of avocado or sour cream.
Typical Keto Lunch
For lunch, I usually enjoy a salad. I start with a bed of greens and then top them with low carb and high fat ingredients.
For example, the above Avocado Salad is loaded with healthy fats thanks to the avocado and added flavour with feta.
Keto Dinner Ideas
Dinner can easily be adapted from regular favourites. For example, I’ll often enjoy a meaty bolognaise, but without spaghetti, or burgers with lettuce cups instead of buns.
A regular go to dinner is the above pictured Tuna Mornay. (Get the recipe here.) You simply replace carby pasta with cauliflower and you can enjoy a cheesy, comfort dish.
Low Carb Snack Ideas
If you feel the need to snack between meals, then there are loads of easy keto snack ideas. (Here are 17!)
My regulars are either strawberries and cream or hot chocolate – each being nourishing and keeping me full for hours.
Sometimes I’ll have a day similar to above, others I’ll go for vegetarian only meals for a change or intermittent fast and skip a meal.
The beauty of the Keto diet is that you can adapt to suit whatever you feel like and choose from endless meal options.
