Book SynopsisWith Keto For One, get 100 delicious dishes for every meal of the day—perfectly proportioned and macro-balanced. Single-serve cooking is one of the biggest challenges when trying to adhere to an eating plan. Most recipes are portioned for 4–6 servings, which means you’ll be eating the same thing for a week or trying to adjust recipes and struggling to figure out proper cooking times and fractions of measurements. With keto, you also have the additional challenge of balancing your macronutrients—a few too many carbs or not enough fat and your recipe is no longer in the ketogenic zone. No more fussing with recipes. No more eating leftovers. No more wasted food (or money!). No more cobbling together snacks and calling it a meal. No more temptation to give into carb-laden, nutrient-void, single-serving convenience foods. Just delicious recipes from "low-carb queen" and best-selling author Dana Carpender. Enjoy delicious keto burgers and smoothies, as well as quick skillet stir-fries and plenty of tasty meals that can be pulled together quickly or ahead of time.

Book SynopsisHave you ever been in a period of life where normal, everyday responsibilities feel overwhelming? Where even getting out of bed in the morning is a feat, let alone making a meal for yourself and your family? If so, this book is for you.This might be a time of break-up, loss, when you’re caring for a sick loved one, or simply when a confluence of life factors that make you feel like you’re paddling to stay above water. For Chef Laura Lea, this debilitating season showed up unwelcomely after going through divorce in 2018. Five years into her business as a holistic chef, she was under daily pressure to display healthy routines and keep up appearances. But reality left her with no appetite and lacking the motivation to even step into the kitchen. In attempt to cope she found herself relying on fast-food, junky snacks, and lots of wine. Ultimately these choices hindered the process of healing from divorce. Instead, they contributed to her overall feelings of sadness, self-loathing, and exhaustion. She needed a way out. Drawing upon her decade in the wellness industry and exploration into the science of grief, Laura Lea began cooking her way through the fog. In Recipes for an Aching Heart, Laura Lea presents the recipes she created, as well as the lifestyle and fitness choices that aided her on her journey out of heartache. By following Laura Lea's story, simple recipes, and advice, you can navigate your own way out of heartache and into a healthier place than ever before.
