Great for anyone struggling to know what to cook on keto
This is my first dish, Spanish Scramble, Page 47, I had to use spinach instead of chard, and I used Linda McCartney vegetarian sausages, lowest carb vegetarian sausages I can find, instead of the sausage in the recipe. If this was on a menu I would have avoided, but it tastes great, even my non vegetarian, not keen on vegetables partner enjoyed it.I have recently after 40 plus years as a vegetarian, decided to eat some omega 3 rich fish, mainly because doing Keto as a vegetarian and watching all of Thomas Delauer videos, as well as lots of other research, I realise that for many years despite being morbidly obese, mostly caused by I'll health, medications and disabilities, but also my carb addiction, that I was not getting enough nutritional value from my food to improve my health, well over 40 years of low fat, high fibre diets have taken their toll.This book is absolutely perfect, it explains the recipes really well, there is even a QR code in the back for further reading, not recipes, but absolutely brilliant information.I found most of the ingredients easy to but from Lidl and Asda here in the UK, I'm also shopping in Aldi and of course online, I can't afford organic, but most of the ingredients can be found and most can have cheaper versions.I would highly recommend this book to anyone new or been doing keto for a long time, especially with all the included knowledge, not just basic recipes.I do love that this book is in oz and grams, it makes it so much easier.I would love a vegetarian version of a Mediterranean keto recipe book and also for low budgets, that explained things in as much detail, and also some pointers to where to buy products in the UK and other countries, because a lot of the reviews say they don't like this amazing book, because they can't find the ingredients, it would also be great to have a list of substitutions for people with allergies, cost restrictions and not being able to source soke of the products.I am really looking forward to trying more of these recipes.

Love this book
I had this book on pre-order and couldn't wait for it to be released. It was well worth the wait as I absolutely love it. It's full of wonderful recipes including little fun facts and lots of useful information relating to keto and the mediterranean diet. I've been eating keto/LCHF for quite a few years now but this book was such a refreshing change and has gone down a real treat. Still working my way through the recipes and thoroughly enjoying making and tasting them. I can honestly say that there hasn't been a recipe yet that has scored less than a 9 out of 10 with my family and most have been full marks. If you've thought about going keto/LCHF before but aren't sure whether you'd enjoy it then I would highly recommend this book as an introduction. Even if you're not keto/LCHF there are recipes in here that you will love. I honestly cannot praise this book highly enough and it's excellent value for money.
