The Complete Keto Diet Cookbook For Beginners: 575 Quick & Easy Ketogenic Recipes - 21-Day Meal Plan With Basic & Healthy Foods (Ketogenic Diet Books For Beginners)

I have no idea how this book got so many positive reviews - except that it is apparently #1 in Amazon's Russian cooking category. This book was obviously written by a non-native speaker. The prose reminds me of celebrity click bait with poorly summarized general information (i.e. 'protein promotes longevity', huh?), incorrect use of verb tenses, inappropriate word choices and abysmal argument construction. If I had to guess, I would say this book was created by indiscriminately cutting, translating and pasting from other keto books and articles. I have no faith in any of its validity. Even the name of the author Mandy Cook, is an obvious scam. As for the recipes, they too are poorly written. One recipe recommended for the 1st day of a 30- day program calls for homemade unsweetened coconut milk -- good thing I live in FL, I can just climb up one of the trees in my yard! Another random recipe calls for 2 c of double cream. After googling I found out that double cream is the British term for heavy cream but that is never explained. The same recipe calls for 1/3 cream cheese. 1/3 of what? a cup? a block? Another recipe calls for 2T Greek aioli -- as if that is a known thing you can buy. ( It isn't!) The Skillet Chicken with Zucchini recipe calls for duck breasts, there is no chicken in the recipe. In short, I would not waste money on this piece of garbage.

I really liked the meal plans and recipes this book offered. I'm super picky but was able to find meals I really enjoy. I'm also not great at cooking, nor do I generally enjoy it, but I feel like these recipes were simple and easy to follow as well as contained "normal" ingredients. That's a total plus for me!!

Um this book has no pictures... how am I supposed to know what the food is supposed to look like? Returning. If you like boring cook books with no pictures this is the book for you.

I knew the book was self published and that there were no pictures before I purchased it. I also knew that meant that there would likely be typos and grammatical errors. With all the positive reviews however, I decided to buy it anyway.One of the first rules of Keto is that the carbs you do eat should come primarily from low carb, high fiber vegetables. There are very few in the recipes in this book. There were other issues too. I started verifying the carb counts. Some were right on but only because the number of servings was so high. It recommends some ingredients that are not ideal for Keto as well.I then went back and starting re-reading the reviews on the book. Although they claim to be verified purchase reviewers, the same verbiage and grammatical errors were present in many of them as if they were written abroad.I am all for self publishing and wanted to support the author. In this case, I feel I was cheated by fake reviews. Just my opinion.

This book is just ok. I’m a visual person and there is not one photo. I’m not a cook, needless to say, I don’t have many of the ingredients. I was hoping it had recipes with common Keto meats, vegetables, yogurts, cheese and nuts etc. with ease and convenience. Seems like I have to constantly run out to get one or two things I don’t have or not in my spice rack.

I was quite excited to order this book thinking I would love it. Unfortunately after receiving it I was very disappointed. I like to see pictures of the finished product to have an idea of what it should look like but there are no pictures at all. Also there are a lot of things used that I don't keep on hand. If I had been able to go through this book before buying I would not have bought it. Not to say some people would love it, but it just wasn't for me.

A decent Keto cookbook that apparently has a "product placement" in it's ingredients list for various items... some sort of alternative sugar "Swerve" that I never heard of and had to search to find out what it was. I didn't like that part of the book. No photos of any of the meals whatsoever, a negative feature of the book.Recopies were fairly good, some of the ingredients were not a common house hold staple.

Product arrived on time . Are family loves the Leto Diet cook book 😇🙏❤️

Perfect for beginners, easy to understand. I have read through once just to get a general idea of Keto diets. Explained it really wellShame there aren't any photos of recipes though
