The Balanced Plate Keto Cookbook: Elevate Your Nutrition and Discover the Life-Changing Secrets

There are a lot of keto cookbooks. Most of them assume you have already decided to eat keto, forever, alone. The Balanced Plate assumes something more realistic: that you cook for other people, that their needs differ from yours, and that you would like to do it in one pan.

What is inside

• 100 recipes, every one photographed in full color.
• Complete nutrition facts per serving, calories, fat, protein, total carbs and net carbs.
• A keto alternative note on every recipe that needs one.
• Chapters covering breakfast, soups, salads, poultry, beef, pork, lamb, seafood, sides, sauces and desserts.
• Technique notes on the things that actually go wrong: watery zoodles, crusts that slide off, sauces that break.

How the keto alternatives work

Each recipe is written as the complete dish first, the way you would serve it to anyone. Underneath, a short note tells you exactly what to change and what it does to the numbers. Swap the flour thickener for cream. Use cauliflower instead of potato. Move the starch to the side. The alternative never asks you to buy a specialty product you will use once.

Who it is for

• People cooking for a household where one person eats low carb and others do not.
• Anyone managing type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance who wants real food with real numbers.
• Home cooks pursuing steady weight loss without a restrictive program.
• Cooks who want restaurant-level dishes at home, the lamb, cioppino and halibut chapters especially.

Who it is not for

If you want a strict thirty-day therapeutic keto protocol with meal plans and macros calculated for you, this is not that book. It is a cookbook for people who want to cook well and stay flexible.
