HASSLE-FREE keto
You’ve been living under a wellbeing rock if you haven’t heard of the ketogenic diet, a low-carb, high-fat approach that fans claim can drive weight loss and boost health. One of the leading advocates? Chef and MKR host Pete Evans. His latest book Easy Keto Dinners is packed with simple, nourishing recipes that have you covered, whether you’re a total keto convert or just dabbling in that low-carb life. Evans’ tip for starting on the approach? “The formula is very simple,” he says. “Take a piece of well-sourced meat – grass fed and organic – or seafood that’s wild caught and sustainable, or some organic free-range eggs. Cook it in good-quality fat – tallow, lard, duck fat, coconut oil, olive oil – then add a salad or low-carb vegie side and a delicious sauce or dressing. Season everything well.” Alright Pete, let’s get cooking, shall we?
