As you probably know already, I have been eating a Keto Approved diet since January. Sure, I cheat a little here and there, like while at Disney, but I have lost over 40 lbs and am loving my new life. I have shared some Keto recipes and tips on here in the past, but many people have asked me what to buy during that first shopping trip.
So I put together a list of things that I think every person tackling the keto way of eating should have on hand. Alongside these crucial items, you might want to have a look at some Keto Supplement Reviews to help you decide which ketogenic supplements will give your body the great health boost that it deserves.
The Ultimate Keto Shopping List
- eggs
- bacon
- pepperoni
- chicken breasts
- cream cheese
- heavy cream
- frozen riced veggies
- unsalted butter
- natural peanut butter with no sugar added
- sugar free jello
- la croix
- cheese blocks (always shred your own cheese – pre-shredded bags have hidden carbs)
- parm crisps
- spinach
- tomatoes
- zucchini
- deli turkey
- deli cheese slices (pre-packaged may contain hidden carbs)
- erithyritol
- stevia
- coconut flour
- almond flour
- swerve
- lily’s chocolate
- extra virgin olive oil
- pink salt
- coconut oil
- mct oil
- tuna
- no sugar added marinara sauce
- beef bone broth
- chicken bone broth
- veggetable broth
- ricotta
- pork loin
- ground beef (higher the fat, the better – I go with 80/20)
- sausages
- peppers
- onions
- grated Parmesan cheese
- shredded Parmesan cheese
- Frank’s hot sauce
- Maria Emmerich cookbook(s)
TIP: When checking carb content, always subtract dietary fiber from carbs to get your net carbs.
Create A Support System
There are many Keto Facebook groups that you can join for support and recipes. Of course it helps to have the entire household eating only keto approved so the temptation is not there. This truly is a lifestyle change, and it can take a lot of will power. Especially if you love bread like I do.
I don’t even miss the pasta, it is the bread. As a general rule I try to stay under 20 carbs a day. Once I get to my ultimate goal weight (only 15 lbs to go!) I will up that to 50 – and 70 while on vacations. I don’t really work out anymore but I should, and I plan to start that up again once the kids are in school.Is there an item I missed on this shopping list?
