    10 Keto Takeout Favorites you Can Make at Home

    by Jennifer Banz · Updated: Oct 3, 20231 Comment

    Takeout is a common pitfall when it comes to eating keto.  A lot of people end up going with takeout when they are on the run or when their evenings get too busy.  But I hame here to tell you, you can make these 10 easy recipes in less time than it takes to go get your takeout and it will be cheaper and healthier, of course!

    This keto bang bang shrimp uses a mix of almond flour and parmesan cheese for the delicious breading.  I think it is more flavorful than traditional breading or a tempura!  The sauce that we coat the shrimp in after cooking is dynamite!  You will be wanting to drink it!
