Me and my girlfriend are attempting a keto-style diet, but I am a terrible chef and don’t have much energy to cook generally. Previously I’d mostly eat soups and stews since I could make a huge pot, freeze some of the extra and eat it with rice, but most of the recipies I know aren’t keto friendly (or at least the one suitable for a full meal). It also doesn’t help that I’m a pretty terrible cook and my girlfriend is used to well-seasoned African cuisine.

I’m hoping to find some keto or keto-adjacent meals that can be prepared in bulk easily, and ideally (but not necessarily), frozen.

    Ground beef can be prepared in bulk and frozen, just needing to microwave when your ready, it tastes better fresh but it’s still ok frozen and heated.

    You can make beef jerky and store that in bulk .canned tuna/sardines makes for good keto meals on the go.

      I already do that for pastas and stews, but haven’t found any good keto recipies using it (yet).

        You can just eat ground beef by itself, it’s delicious. I just add onions on top for some zesty crunch.

        For the lazy look at one pan cooking ideas, less to clean up

        If you want to get fancy, cook a big batch put portions into daily meal boxes, add some olives, and maybe sour cream… And easy eating all week

        Also having hard boiled eggs (still in shell) is a great snack that lasts about a week in the fridge

        Though, personally, I don’t do meal prep other then packetitizing the meat I to individual serving sizes… Cook and eat. Easy peasy
