By Jaclyn Anglis Updated: September 25, 2019

Easy keto recipes can be a godsend when you’re just starting the diet. After all, the keto diet is extremely low in carbs, and it can be hard to plan your daily meals (not to mention snacks and desserts) around it, especially at the beginning. But just because your eating plan is low-carb does not mean that it has to be low in flavor. These delicious and unique keto recipes are all the proof you need. The best part? You don’t have to waste the whole day away babysitting the stove.
