The best low carb and keto diet hacks you’ll need!
The weight loss industry has boomed like never before in recent years, and not surprisingly, a ton of miracle weight loss products and fad diets propped up, each promising to help you shed off those extra pounds.
The keto diet in particular, is one of the most popular weight loss diets out there, and while it does work effectively for some people, it can be tricky to stick to.
Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be too difficult!
Read on to discover 3 low carb and keto diet hacks you need to know if you’re just getting started.
Hack #1
Use cauliflower for everything. There, ! said it!
Cauliflower may not be your favorite veggie, but if you put in just a teeny bit of effort and experiment with different recipes that use this veggie, you can actually turn your regular, carb loaded meal into a healthier, low carb meal.
Do a quick Google search and you’ll find tons of different recipes that use cauliflower.
My most favorite are cauliflower rice and cauliflower fried rice (sorry I don’t have recipes for these!! I just shoot from the hip and hope it turns out nice)😂.
Give cauliflower a shot and see what works best for you and your taste buds and then take it from there.
Hack #2
Try zoodles. If you haven’t tried zoodles already, now’s the perfect time to. Zoodles are basically zucchini noodles, and the obvious healthier option as opposed to regular noodles.
They are surprisingly easy to make, taste great and can really make your home cooked meals a lot healthier and fiber rich.
If you’re not a fan of zucchini or just don’t have it, you can also try making zoodles using carrots of any other firm veggies of your choice.
Hack #3
Get the dark chocolate.
This one’s probably going to be your most favorite keto diet hacks that we’ve listed down here, and yes, dark chocolate is actually good for you. You already know how chocolate (dark chocolate in particular), is loaded with antioxidants, and that’s not all- it can also make for a nice addition to your low carb meals.
If you’re someone who tends to snack a lot during the day, or find yourself having an intense craving for something sweet, this one could be a lifesaver.
Just remember that you need to stick to dark chocolate- ideally 70% cocoa or higher. Regular milk chocolate doesn’t count.
Get started on any of these keto diet hacks, and even if you’re not sticking to the diet entirely, you’ll still be able to make a healthier change to your diet, and the results will show!
