Quick & Easy Ketogenic Cooking: Meal Plans and Time Saving Paleo Recipes to Inspire Health and Shed Weight Paperback – March 15, 2016 by Maria Emmerich (Victory Belt Publishing) (IBRCookBooks)



I had mild expectations when I purchased this book. In my mind at the time it was another cook book. Once I opened the package, I was floored.
1: The volume of recipes in this book is awesome. Once you get through the intro and "tutorials" you have a beefy 252 pages of recipes! Everything from sauces to desserts and everything in between.
2: Vibrant pictures. This is common among cook books but just about everything has a picture.
3: Ease of instruction. It's worth noting that the "tutorials" and information in the beginning of the book is worth the time. Do you have to read it to make something, certainly not. Yet, it will make things easier as you navigate though the tome and create the dishes.

A word of caution on 2 fronts.
1: Take your time with these recipes and follow the adjustments to the letter for ingredients that are substitutes for common items (ie: you will use MUCH less Stevia than sugar as a sweetener).
2: Research on which type of Keto based diet you wish to follow. The 2 I recommend looking into are: The Carb Night Solution by John Kiefer and The Anabolic Solution by Dr. Mauro Di Pasquale. Both books are keto based diets, with a small variance between them.
