Anyone familiar with keto understands that it encompasses higher healthy fat, moderate protein, and low-carb foods. Perhaps you reacted as I did when I saw "keto" and "air fryer" partnered together. After all, air fryers use minimal fat. So, how would this be beneficial?
First, I need to be transparent. Due to significant and emotional life-changes, it was necessary to relaunch my keto lifestyle. One of my epiphanies was that I was consuming too much fat.
But it's a common misconception that you need to eat a ton of fat on keto. If your body is already "high fat," your diet doesn't need to be.
I was using healthy fat to keep hunger cravings at bay. And, the stress of becoming a widow caused my cortisol levels to escalate. It was time to tweak.
Happily, Maria's recipes capitalize on healthy fat consumption without overdoing it.
Having never used an Air Fryer, I invested in the model that Maria suggested, which is the Cuisinart TOA-60 Convection Toaster Oven Air Fryer with Light. Being single, I need faster food solutions when I return from work. I don't want to devote my entire evening to cooking and cleanup.
My first recipe was Maria's "Simple Scallops." I am a seafood lover, and this recipe was insanely simple! I was eating this delicious meal within minutes. Plus, the beauty of her recipes is that the ingredients often involve items that I already have on hand.
Keto Air Fryer includes these recipes:
- Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mayo
- Marinated Turmeric Cauliflower Steaks
- Perfect Zoodles
- Burrata-Stuffed Tomatoes
- Crispy Brussels Sprouts
- Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus
- Doro Wat Wings
- Keto Danish
- The Best Keto Quiche
- Meritage Eggs
- Easy Bacon
