My #1 Suggestion to You This Holiday Season
I have one big suggestion for you as you go through this holiday season: Take advantage of the amazing sugar replacements we have available to us now like Swerve or Lakanto (both measure cup-for-cup with sugar). Even if you choose to splurge a bit on non-keto sweets, by replacing the sugar in your favorite recipes with net carb-free substitutes, you’ll go a long way in reducing blood sugar spikes and weight gain from sugar consumption. 👍
All of the recipes on this list are gluten free and sugar free recipes as well. Now let’s get to the keto recipes!
