Dirty Keto Breakfast

As an experienced keto dieter, I know that starting the day off with a satisfying and nutritious breakfast is key to staying on track with the keto diet. Here are some of my favorite dirty lazy keto breakfast ideas that are easy to make and delicious.

When it comes to following the keto diet, there are various approaches, including the concept of “dirty keto.” Dirty keto refers to a less strict interpretation of the diet, where the focus is primarily on macronutrient ratios while potentially overlooking the quality of food sources. While it may not emphasize the healthiest food choices, it can still be a convenient option for those seeking to maintain ketosis.

In the context of dirty keto breakfast, it’s important to note that the emphasis is placed on meeting the macronutrient goals, primarily targeting low-carb and high-fat intake, rather than strictly adhering to wholesome and unprocessed ingredients. This approach allows for more flexibility, which can be suitable for individuals with busy schedules or limited access to specific keto-friendly foods.

If you’re a coffee lover like me, then you’ll love this lazy keto breakfast idea. Simply add a tablespoon of grass-fed butter and a tablespoon of coconut oil to your coffee and blend it up for a creamy and satisfying morning pick-me-up.

This is also known as proof coffee or bulletproof coffee and is a great way to get some healthy fats into your diet. and a pre-requisite to any low carb breakfast.
