Principles of a protein-heavy diet, colour illustrated recipes and a 60-day mealplan


The first chapters go through the science and basic principles of the Carnivore Diet. Then it goes into recipes for Breakfast (lots of egg recipes), Lunches, Dinners, Soups and Broths. These are not Julia Child—just simple recipes you can easily buy ingredients for and prep in a few minutes.
Absolutely every recipe is illustrated with a colour photo. It also include a comprehensive 60-day Meal Plan.
My motivation is for weight loss, but the Carnivore Diet is also good for improving energy, mood stability and other health benefits. Homo sapiens is primarily a carnivore species, so evolutionarily, we were meant to live this way.
We should be eating more fish, and there are several fish recipes. We really should be eating more offal, and this book contains some offal (liver, heart) recipes. Bone broth is very nutritious, though you have to boil the bones for a very long time before the yummy, nutritious marrow comes out. I get ‘beefy marrow bones’ from a butcher who will saw them sideways for you, so the broth reaches the marrow inside.
A trick for limiting carbs is to use other flours (almond, etc) instead of wheat flour.
I’m looking forward to trying Beef Heart Salad, Fish Casserole, Carnivore Chicken and Dumplings, Herb-crusted Lamb Rack, Slow-cooked Lamb Broth and Smoke Salmon Cream Soup.
I would say a downside is that meat is more expensive than plant-based and carb-heavy ingredients, but if it gets me skinny, it’s worth it.
Despite purchasing the ebook for real money, I had a terrible time accessing it, as my PC wouldn’t open it. I was finally able to download it to my Android phone.
