Today I made my first Keto Frittata and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I’m on day 3 and, even though it’s early, I feel really great about this lifestyle change. Not only am I eating better than I have in ages, but I’m feeling better already too! 

Keto Beef & Kale Frittata

Before I started Keto I did a bit of research, asked a lot of questions, and was extra careful on my first grocery shopping trip. In fact, I may have been a little TOO careful. I put back a lot of stuff because they seemed to have a lot of fat. I didn’t realize the fats I was looking at were good fats and that’s a big part of the Ketogenic diet

Instead of going back to the store, I decided I was going to work with what I already had. Once I purged the cabinets and fridge of any non-Keto friendly ingredients there was nothing processed or iffy left behind. I even passed on my sugars and flours so I wouldn’t be tempted to use them. I am 110% committed and realized that the only way I would succeed was to get rid of the temptations.

So… yesterday I put a chuck roast in the slow cooker on top of some butter and onions, then topped the beef with bacon grease. I felt a little dirty doing that but apparently, it’s perfectly acceptable to do this when you’re living the Keto lifestyle! I had a lot of beef leftover so I decided to use some of it in a frittata for today’s lunch and dinner.

I decided to use Kale and Feta cheese along with the beef for my frittata. I was skeptical, but the ingredients actually worked really well together. Even my grandmother loved it and wanted seconds and she’s not even doing this thing called Keto!

I’m not sure how long exactly this will keep, but I’m sure it’s good for at least 3 days in the refrigerator. I’m not sure it’ll last that long though, especially with my grandmother eating it too!
