  • #70 Top 3 Keto-Friendly Plant-Based Meats You Need to Try!
    Nov 14 2024

    In this episode I’m sharing my top three favourite plant-based meats that fit perfectly into a keto vegan lifestyle: Juicy Marbles, Redefined, and Oumph! I’ll go over where you can buy each one, the carb count for each option, and why they’ve become my go-to picks. From incredible flavours to texture that feels like the real deal, these plant-based proteins have truly revolutionised my keto vegan meals. Whether you’re looking for a tasty steak alternative, versatile strips for stir-fries, or something to elevate your plant-based protein game, I’ve got you covered!

    The Highlights:

    • Where to Buy: You can find Juicy Marbles, Redefined, and Oumph! meats from Iceland, Ocado, and MightyPlants.com.
    • Carb Counts & Nutritional Info: Each product has been chosen for its keto-friendly macros, so you can enjoy without compromising your low-carb goals.

    Product Spotlight:

    • Juicy Marbles Filet Steaks (226g, £12): 2.4g carbs, 7g fat, 18g protein
    • Juicy Marbles Whole Cut Loin (756g, £28): 2.4g carbs, 7g fat, 18g protein
    • Juicy Marbles Bone-In Ribs (500g, £22.13): 2.1g carbs, 11g fat, 20g protein
    • Oumph! Chunk: 0g carbs, gluten-free
    • Redefined Plant-Based Beef Flank Cut (200g, £8.65): 6g carbs, 9g fat, 26g protein

    My DIY BBQ Seasoning: Store-bought BBQ seasoning often has around 24g of carbs per 100g due to added sugars. I’ve crafted my own low-carb, keto-friendly BBQ blend using ingredients like smoked paprika, dried onion, tomato powder, and Truvia for Baking Brown Sugar as a low-carb sweetener. It’s perfect for seasoning your favourite plant-based meats!
