Keto Egg Lunch Box
Keto for beginners doesn't have to be complicated at all! Boiled eggs are paired with flavorsome mozzarella pearls, sliced salami, and fresh greens for a fantastic lunch you can prepare ahead of time and take to work or simply store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. You can add some other leafy greens of choice or replace mozzarella with some goat or feta cheese (in that case, remember to log the ingredients separately). We added some herbs de Provence to enhance the cheese flavor, but you can omit them entirely or other herbs of your choice. You can use this recipe as a guide and create your own easy Keto lunch recipes for beginners and enjoy a new meal every day!
What to eat on a Keto diet for beginners?
With just a few simple steps, you can make your transition to Keto truly effortless and an enjoyable experience. You should start by cutting carbs and replacing them with healthy fats and good proteins that will give your body the energy it needs on a daily basis. Start by making a shopping list with foods that fit your personal macros needs. Stocking your fridge with delicious and Keto-friendly foods is an excellent way to keep you on track. Foods like beef, pork, chicken, fish, cheese, nuts, seeds, avocados, leafy greens, and berries are excellent choices for the Keto diet, and they can be combined into a wonderful meal for the entire family.
Serving suggestions
This excellent Keto egg lunch box is perfect as it is. However, you can pair it with some nuts or seeds and add a few cherry tomatoes or chopped peppers for a different flavor. Experiment with various herbs and spices and adjust the amounts according to your taste. This lovely Keto egg lunch box can also be served with some low-carb mayonnaise or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
