Since the keto diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet, you’ll likely be eating a lot of meat. One of the easiest and quickest ways to cook meat is to use a pressure cooker. This As Seen On TV pressure cooker prepares dishes up to 70% faster so you spend less time in the kitchen. It’s also great for making keto-approved soup and homemade yogurt.

2. A powerful blender

Easy Lock Containers

Just because you’re on the keto diet doesn’t mean you can’t have great snacks! Beef jerky, cold cuts, and nuts are all great snacks. Make sure you’re keeping them at their freshest with an airtight container like these ones.

6. Veggie noodles every day

Spiralizers make it so easy to replace carbs with vegetables. Everything from zucchini, carrots or cucumbers to apples and sweet potatoes will make achieving your wellness goals even easier. We love this recipe for Zucchini Bolognese – to make it more keto-friendly, just swap the rice for extra zucchini and consider swapping in chicken or turkey for ground beef.
