Michael Silverstein, author of New Keto Cooking that had nearly 1000 pre-pub consumer orders and hit the #1 spot in high protein diets, is back-this time focusing on how to make delicious and Keto-friendly comfort food. You may think going Keto means abandoning your favorite culinary guilty pleasures, but Chef Michael is here to prove you wrong with his innovative twists on home-cooking classics and other indulgent dishes that are guaranteed to become new favorites. Chef Michael knows firsthand the benefits of the diet-he lost more than 80 pounds in one year after going keto, giving him personal authenticity on the subject, which is backed by his renowned cooking skills.
These recipes are truly the best of both worlds: they combine the well-known health benefits of eating Keto with bold flavors and mouthwatering decadence. Michael's culinary know-how makes him an expert on Keto substitutions that don't sacrifice flavor. Whip up his Loaded "Potato" Soup featuring cauliflower, melted cheese and scallions, or make his Cheesy French Onion Meatloaf that's a cut above the typical dry meatloaf recipe. Or if you're in the mood to try something new, why not try his Pickle-Brined Fried Chicken with a generous helping of Braised Collard Greens with Pancetta? And for dessert-lovers, Michael includes takes on classic flavors-see his Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie or Chocolate Espresso Fudge Brownie-as well as fun new recipes you'll be eager to try. His Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake Bites and Lavender & Thyme Shortbread Cookies are just as decadent, all while still being Keto friendly.
With this exciting collection of stick-to-your-ribs favorites, it's easier than ever to enjoy the benefits of the healthy Keto lifestyle.
