Have you heard of the keto diet? It’s basically a low-carb, high-fat diet that makes your body burn fat instead of carbohydrates. The goal could be weight loss, increased athletic performance, or just better health. But what kind of meal prep ideas fit into the keto lifestyle?

Top the bagels with a little butter, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or any other keto-friendly ingredients you like. Here’s the recipe.

Cauliflower Mac n Cheese

For keto-friendly comfort food, there are few better options than creamy mac and cheese. By swapping out the normal pasta for cauliflower, you’re sticking to the keto regimen and giving yourself a healthy vegetable at the same time.
