Adjusting to a Low-Carb Meal Plan
When I started on my Keto journey, I was all excited that unlike other meal plans, I did not have to suffer giving up some of my favorite foods like butter, cheese, and berries.
But, and I will not lie, this is a BIG BUT, I had to give up bread and pasta.
This was not good because I love my pasta and bread! The other sacrifice I had to come to terms with was giving up sweets.
I also love my cakes and cookies, so this set me in motion to find tasty alternatives!
We found this amazing ketosis measuring tool, called Keyto. It looks like a pen and is portable. Very easy to use and will help you keep on track!
Low-Carb Friendly Mug Muffins are Simple to Make
Typically, I have eggs every morning for breakfast with my coffee. Needing a change, I decided to look up a Keto-friendly muffin and realized not much was available!
There are plenty of mug cakes, which we will recipe test soon, but no mug muffins.
This was a recipe challenge I decided to take on so I could enjoy a muffin once again! The best part about this recipe is the fact that our strawberry almond mug muffin is cooked in the microwave!
In about 1 minute, you can have a breakfast muffin that is low-carb, keto, and gluten-free!
If you don't have time to search for low-carb bread or low-carb pasta products, try this new bread company I found. So many great paleo, gluten-free, and keto-friendly options available!
