A friend requested ideas on low carb/keto snack and lunches that didn't have to be heated. I did low carb to lose the 30 I have lost and then sort of fizzled out and went back to my old ways. Although I am a firm believer you can eat anything at all and as long as you are at a deficit, you will lose, I personally feel better and have more energy on LC/keto and want to get back to it for those reasons. His question got me thinking of LC eating and I decided to make a list for his girlfriend to give her some ideas that wouldn't be the boring old "eat meat, eat meat." This is what I came up with and it is a work in progress but I made a list of my favs from some of the sites I get recipes off of often. Hope it will help someone out there doing LC or keto and needing some variety! If you like it and would like a list of hot meals, PM me! Thinking of compiling lists of different things to give people ideas!
