Me and my girlfriend are attempting a keto-style diet, but I am a terrible chef and don’t have much energy to cook generally. Previously I’d mostly eat soups and stews since I could make a huge pot, freeze some of the extra and eat it with rice, but most of the recipies I know aren’t keto friendly (or at least the one suitable for a full meal). It also doesn’t help that I’m a pretty terrible cook and my girlfriend is used to well-seasoned African cuisine.

I’m hoping to find some keto or keto-adjacent meals that can be prepared in bulk easily, and ideally (but not necessarily), frozen.

    In the meantime it’d be good to make sure you’re having whole proteins mixing in beans when you’re cooking your rice instead of having rice alone is significantly healthier and more filling.

    I personally made a rule to avoid “naked carbs” or carb centric dishes so I’ll never eat table bread at a restaurant but I will, sparingly, have sandwiches. Additionally if you’re having pasta don’t be conservative with the meat in your sauce. For me a big part of healthy eating was to train myself not to stretch vegetables and meat with fillers. I focus a meal on the veg and meat and use carbs sparingly for their flavor.
