Keto Meal Plan: Dairy-free (16:8) #2

By Dietdoctor @DietDoctor1

Could dairy products be slowing your weight loss or interfering with your potential to make health gains? Try a week of dairy-free meals and see how you feel. Some people are sensitive to dairy and make more progress without it.

This week's delicious lineup is the second in our series of keto dairy-free meal plans, which incorporate intermittent fasting (or 16:8). On this meal plan, when you fast, you'll skip breakfast, which is a dietary tactic some people take when they want to overcome a weight-loss plateau.

Intermittent fasting can also help to improve blood sugar levels and, in some cases, has proven helpful in reversing diabetes.

Among this week's star dishes, you'll enjoy Diet Doctor's flavorful keto chicken garam masala, succulent pulled pork, and keto crispy Chinese pork with cabbage.

And remember: With this week's lineup, you can feel free to adjust, change, or skip any meal. It's completely up to you!

Kate Nordin, Content Manager on Diet Doctor's recipe team, created this week's meal plan. As a working mom-of-three (all under age 5), Kate, who's also a qualified nutritionist, learned to master time-saving techniques in the kitchen.

Here, she shares her favorite breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas that both taste great and are simple to make.

"I like to keep things simple, yet nutritious. I spend a bit more time on the weekends making something fun for the family to eat, such as pancakes or pizza, which are, of course, the kid's favorites. I love cooking, so the weekends allow me to be a bit more expressive with food, while also being able to sit and enjoy each meal with my five-year-old twins, two-year-old, and husband."

This meal plan will keep you below 20 grams of net carbs per day.
