22 Keto Instant Pot Recipes

Everywhere I look these days, it seems the focus is on all things KETO. And for good reason, since many people who follow a ketogenic eating plan report benefits ranging from weight loss and appetite control to increased energy and better mental focus. And eating keto can even help with lowering blood pressure and controlling diabetes.

What Exactly is Keto?

The ketogenic (keto) diet is an eating plan comprised of high-fat, low-carb foods. Limiting your intake of carbohydrates very puts you in ketosis, a metabolic state where your body burns fat instead of carbs for energy. This state of ketosis is what leads to experiencing the many lifestyle and health benefits mentioned above.

As I recently reviewed my blog, I realised that many of my favourite recipes have two things in common: they are made in the Instant Pot and are suitable for keto and low carb diets. Yaye!

This awesome collection of 22 Keto Instant Pot Recipes is full of delicious and super easy keto recipes. You won’t find any complex ingredients or hard to follow instructions here. Because sticking to a diet (keto or otherwise) can be difficult enough, it is important that preparing the meals is simple and easy.

 

This roundup contains 22 tried and tested Instant Pot Keto recipes that cater to a wide range of dietary considerations (including vegan, paleo and gluten-free) so you will be sure to find something to your taste.
