I've been on keto for a long time. I've always been pressed for time myself and resorted to very expensive food delivery as an alternative (on keto, food delivery - especially in queens - means ordering sub par food in too small portions because the portions include rice or other carbs as filler. then you end up doubling your portion, adding delivery tip...could be a $30 shitty dinner)
I've thought about the home cook route but all the professional ones are absurdly expensive. This is a nice way to do it.
However I recently got a sous vide machine which seems like the answer to my problems. It's extremely hard to screw something up when it's cooked sous vide and it's almost always delicious. It's a worthwhile investment
- mtlynch 9y agoYeah, I have a sous vide as well and completely agree. I like it for cooking things like steak and chicken, but it doesn't really help me much with side dishes or desserts.
- illumin8 9y agoSides can be extremely easy to cook though. Broccoli only needs to be steamed for a few minutes. I know the post of the original article is on keto, but rice can be thrown in a rice cooker and is ready automatically ~20 minutes later. Sweet potatoes can be thrown in an oven for 30 minutes. Sides should be very simple and fast to create.

- Jefro118 9y agoShameless plug - keto meal kit delivery service: https://ketocargo.com https://ketocargo.com A bit cheaper and more pragmatic than most delivery services, specifically for keto.
