Keto Vegetarian Cookbook: 110 Delicious, Low-Carb, Sugar-free Recipes for a Plant-Based Ketogenic Diet (Recipe-Only Edition) by Stephanie N. Collins

Rating: 4.5 Stars

What I liked most about this cookbook is that you don't have to be a vegetarian to use it. I am not one and I found many of the recipes enticing and have a list that I want to try out. I tried the Keto Blueberry Smoothie and the Spinach and Zucchini Lasagna and both were very tasty. I still want to try the Veggie Lasagna Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms and the Tomato Basil Soup. The recipe selection consists of simple, easy to make dishes that represent breakfast, lunch and dinner. As a non-vegetarian, I appreciate that most of the recipes are recognizable with simple twists that I am willing to try out. This makes it easier for me to incorporate them into my regular meal lineup whether I am doing keto or not. 

There are pictures for many of the recipes, something I value in a cookbook because I am visual and like to know what the end product is supposed to look like before I begin. Some of the ingredients like MCT Oil I was not familiar with so I was appreciative of her first chapter where she explains some of the common ingredients and goes through the different types of carbs and proteins. I do wish she had explained some of the sweeteners, I had to look a few up! I learned a lot, so if you are a newbie, start there before diving into the recipes.  

I voluntarily reviewed this cookbook after receiving a free copy.
