Today's Keto BET Skillet is delicious and reminds me of my grandma's fried green tomatoes.
This reminds me that I need to share a fried green tomato recipe on here at some point.

I told you in my previous post that we are going to start focusing on getting eating more veggies, and that means in every meal, including my breakfast recipes!
Gone are the days of meat and eggs alone for breakfast! You need to start adding veggies to your breakfast plates, and feel free to throw in a small serving of fruit as well.
Grape tomatoes have a low glycemic load.
There is a difference between glycemic index and glycemic load (which we will discuss in a future post) but know that you don't need to worry about GI as much as GL.
Carrots often get a bad rap because they seem to have a high GI, but when you consider the GL, they are fine to eat and don't harm you the way hard-core keto'ers may say they do.
Now, if your blood sugar is out of whack and you are severely overweight, your doctor may ask you to hold off on certain fruits and veggies until you lose weight and get your hormones straightened out.
I understand and respect that, but if you are avoiding carrots and tomatoes like the plague because some Facebook group told you they contain sugar and carbs ignore them!
Grape tomatoes also give your body much-needed Vitamin C, Lycopene, Potassium, and Phosphorus. Vitamin C keeps your immune system functioning in top form.
Lycopene helps reduce cell damage. Potassium helps out your muscles, heart, and nerves, while phosphorus is good for your kidneys.
While I'm not against taking vitamins, nothing compares to consuming vitamins and minerals in your diet. It's just the way it was meant to be.

Nope! I can't remember how much this made, but I will look into it. Never eat more than you're hungry for.
