    Vegetarian Keto Recipes

    Before starting the diet, understand the basics of the keto diet. This is a kind of strict diet where you cannot go on and off with this diet. Otherwise, it may have some serious negative effects.

    In short, the keto diet includes high protein, high-fat foods, and eliminating carbs completely. So in this way energy will be produced by breaking down the extra fats deposited in the body. The process is known as ketosis.

    Structure of keto diet intake -

    • Fat - 70%
    • Protein - 20%
    • Carb - 5%

    Read the best keto vegetables post here to know which vegetables are good for the keto diet.

    There are vegetables and fruits which are high in carbohydrate and hence needs to be avoided in the process. Try to avoid underground vegetables as they are rich in the carb.  The best pick for the keto diet is high in nutrition and low in carbs. To choose it's a bit easier as they are dark, leafy, and above-ground vegetables but again check the nutrition value before starting your diet.

    Vegetarian Keto

    Keto diet is a high fat diet that limits the carbohydrates to 5% of daily intake. It can be up to 20 - 50 gm a day. The lesser carb the effective this diet is. Most of the protein and fat comes from that of meats, eggs, fishes, dairy, etc. However vegetarian diet may include eggs in there diet where as vegan diet is completely plant based and most eliminates egg as well.

    Though it's effective and helps in weight loss, it calls for proper planning. Vegetarian Keto diet requires lot of planning to make sure there won't be any nutrition loss since this is a combination of two diets and eliminates most of the items that are eaten on a normal keto diet.

    Consult your physician before starting any such diet. However, these recipes are best to add as sides or snacks in your regular keto diet too.

    If you are wondering what all you can add in your vegetarian keto diet, here is a list.

    Healthy Fatolive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, MCT oil
    Nutsalmonds, pistachio, cashews, walnuts, Brazil nuts
    Seedschia, hemp, pumpkin, flax seeds
    Nut Butterpeanut butter, almond butter, pecan butter, hazelnut butter
    Dairy full-fat milk, yogurt, cheese
    Proteintofu, tempeh, nutritional yeast, spirulina, eggs (non-vegan)
