A certified nutritionist and self-taught chef with a love for entertaining and experimenting with food, Lolita Carrico created Ketology after struggling for years with her own hormonal changes and weight gain. After having two children, she found that managing her weight and moods became more and more of a struggle.
After researching the ketogenic diet thoroughly and understanding the science and nutritional aspects, she began her keto journey in 2018. Within three months, she shed 25 pounds and her mood improved, focus sharpened and her energy was through the roof.
Four years later, she has maintained a 65-pound weight loss and has learned to intuitively follow a balanced keto lifestyle without sacrificing a thing!
The end of summer is almost in sight (though in Los Angeles, temps are at record highs this weekend). With the end of summer, Labor Day weekend is upon us, which means it’s time to fire up the grill and enjoy some delicious food with friends and family.
If you’re like me, you’re always looking for new and interesting recipes to try, especially when it comes to holiday cooking. That’s why I’ve put together delicious keto and low carb Labor Day recipes, which I tested on a group of non-keto friends earlier this week and they were all a huge success! (Yes, I did throw an all keto and low carb BBQ for friends who aren’t keto!)
Whether you’re looking for a main dish, side dish, or dessert, I’ve got you covered. So fire up the grill and get ready to feast! Below are the keto Labor Day recipes that I’ll be serving up this weekend!
Grilled Shrimp Skewers and Vegetables with Mustard Glaze
These grilled vegetables are bursting with flavor thanks to mustard and spices in the glaze. They make a great main dish or side dish.
No BBQ is complete with hot dogs and cole slaw! This elevated recipe uses hot Italian sausages and a tangy broccoli slaw for a delicious and nutritious spin on a favorite.
With a light, tangy dressing and crisp vegetables along with creamy feta and your favorite low carb pasta, this salad is the perfect side for BBQs or get togethers and also a delicious main dish for lunch.
This cornbread is moist, fluffy, and has just the right amount of sweetness and spice. It's perfect for sopping up all that savory barbecue sauce. Plus, it's low carb and gluten free!
Topped with some low carb ice cream, this dessert is packed with fresh berries and have a crumbly almond and coconut topping that's irresistible . If you're looking for a delicious dessert that's also easy to make, look no further!
