This sauce is so creamy and very tasty! Very easy to prepare. I added a bit more garlic and it turned out wonderfully! My husband is picky about his alfredo sauce and even he loved this one!

Keto Diet Foods:
Keto diet foods are easy to find and available everywhere. There are many varieties to choose from, whether you pick prepackaged low-carb diet foods or make your own meals. No matter how you want to do the keto plan, there is a solution out there for you.
Always start with protein sources such as eggs, fish, beef, chicken, and tofu. On a daily basis, your diet should consist primarily of these foods. You'll want to pair your protein with vegetables like salad greens, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, and spinach.
Then as a snack or small side you can add your berries and healthy fats like avocado. Don't forget to include your cooking fats as well. It is easy to eat too much fruit in the beginning so try to avoid it if you find yourself struggling with sugar addiction. Vegetable and seed oils, cheese, dairy, nuts, and legumes are used to add healthy fat into your diet, but you can eat too much fat, and if you do, you won't lose weight.
You owe it to your dieting success to stay within the acceptable foods list.
If you are out and about and hungry, the last thing you want to do is to try to think back in your memory to figure out what you can and cannot eat. Carrying a list of acceptable foods with you will make finding a snack or meal while out on the run easy. You can't always rely on low carb labels to tell you whether or not something is diet-friendly. Ever since keto became the new diet craze, manufacturers have been jumping on the bandwagon to attract keto dieters. They label items low carb to sell products and don't have your health in mind. Relying on foods from your own personal list is the best way to stay on the plan.
Remember, keep it simple. Protein - Veggies - Healthy Fats - Fruits
