Budget Friendly KETO Meal (3 CARBS)

[@eckankar7756]

I made it like cabbage roll, a leaf of blanched cabbage with the Mexican filling and enchilada sauce, it was very very good.

Im so glad I found your channel. As a keto user myself and someone fresh out of college, it's difficult to stay on this diet while being cost-effective.

Mission tortillas now have a 0 net carb tortillas that are FABULOUS! Can't really tell the difference between those and originals!! They're great for all kinds of wraps.

It looks so yummy!! I use sliced turkey meat for lasagna sheets. You honestly can't tell that it's turkey.

[@rebeccakalyani2486]

Those look delicious. Thanks for the recipe. I will give it a try. I will probably just buy the low carb tortillas and the canned enchilada sauce. Since it’s just me. But I think it’s still going to be pretty budget friendly that way.

[@vanessap7209]

Thanks Annie for helping me make the change. I’ve only been on keto since Saturday afternoon after unintentionally fasting😄You have opened my eyes to do this for my husband and I. This channel and your website is my go to😊 Loving this journey, with you guiding the way🌺

[@SRose-vp6ew]

The big thing to do when you first start doing keto is to make sure to add a little salt to your diet. Watch a Dr. Berg video on electrolytes to understand why.

[@SRose-vp6ew]

Dollar tree has pink Himalayan salt. That or Utah salt is what you need every day when you do keto.

Good afternoon Keto Focus. Those homemade eggwraps look absolutely delicious. I'm definitely gonna try 'em and I'm definitely going to use your tip for xantham gum (a great tip for frugality). Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@alansawesomeketoworld4612]

I make my egg wrap but I bake them instead of doing on top of the stove as I found it comes out nicer. I whip my egg white until they aresoft peaks as well

[@margaretweber3931]

Do they still have the eggy taste?

[@kevinschmidt2210]

I would add in to the meat, cumin, chipotle, onion, celery and mushrooms.

[@dhippler3495]

These look awesome! Thanks for sharing. Week nights I might use the store bought, but weekends I might make my own.

[@amcafee4275]

Oh wow those look delicious. I will have to try this recipe real soon. Thanks for sharing.

[@lushpaw1]

The continuous use of xanthan gum triggered a pro-inflammatory response, promoting an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines in the adipose tissue (fat). chronic inflammation in adipose tissue is considered a crucial risk factor for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in obese individuals... that being said.. i'm still going to try these occasionally.. thank you.

[@NavyWife]

How often is it safe to use Xantham Gum? Do the other Gums cause the same problem?

[@lushpaw1]

@@NavyWife it says up to 15grams a day are safe.. but eating it every day can cause gut problems and inflammation.

[@regevnava]

Excellent recipe. Just a quick note if u add some aromatic spices you won't get the eggie smell or taste. I use garlic&onion powders oregano and a very tiny amount of citric acid. It'll keep it longer in the fridge. 🙏😊

[@Kasiniare]

Seasoning is important…

[@pattylyman7907]

Those enchiladas! Those homemade wraps! Perfect!!

[@drryanjames93]

I love watching your videos. It is true that Keto can be expensive, especially for those of us who do not live in the US. I live in Ecuador so I do not have access to low carb tortillas, egg protein powder, or egg whites in a carton just to name a few Keto cooking ingredients. Fortunately, I am able to afford to have many items 'muled' in, but that does mean $$$.

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

Mission makes a Zero Net Carb tortilla now.

[@margenelson2]

All zero foods have maltodextrin it spikes your blood sugar immediately after eating not what we want on keto

[@LaineyBug2020]

My favorite keto clean red enchy sauce is from Siete. But that's not exactly budget friendly unless you use something like Ibotta. I would have never thought to do eggs with this! My mom always makes these type of meals with tortillas. Maybe next time I can get her to let me make these before hand... I have been missing her cooking so much!

[@janetthompson1372]

This is a great idea! Have you tried freezing these ?How long can the wraps bekept just refrigerator ed? With all the speacial ingredients that manufacturing like to add, I prefer to cook no ready made. You're so creative and very smart.

Glad i stumbled onto this. I've bought those egglife wraps several times and they were a waste of money. They just stick together. I'll be trying this this weekend!

[@Tontoquienloleation]

I like it that you said you prefer the store bought ones. I think most of the time the homemade product is better, but sometimes I also prefer the store bought, so it's good to know.

[@kimberlytschopp5169]

They can be frozen. Add to your scrambled eggs so it would be like a double your in some. Then you don't waste and don't have to use all at once. Freeze individually

[@Goody2shzToo]

IndigoNillie here on KZbin (not sure of the spelling) has some great egg yolk recipes. She has her own chickens and had tons of yolks after making her own dehydrated egg whites. I made the ice cream and it was delicious! I've also made egg nog with just yolks and that was also delicious.

[@mrzee1958]

I wanted to share a recipe of something I have been makin'. I'm on an OMAD and STRICTLY carnivore with Monday all day fasting! It's a 3 day - "fish casserole" kind of creation. Consists of a can of Albacore tuna in spring water, a can of sardines - wild caught in water and a vacuum packed large piece of wild caught alaskan salmon (coho or sockeye) from Trader Joes, all cooked on my outside covered grille. I put the salmon on a foil boat out on the covered grille and while its cookin', I make a foil boat platter with about 20" of foil, folded long way in1/2 and then cup up the outer edge (about an inch) to make a boat. Then scoup in the tuna (after draining water) and the anchovies -drained- and break up it all and stir it up. After the salmon cooks (about 15 minutes) I scoup it into the mixture and break it all up and stir it in. Then I scoup it all into the foil boat and flatten it out and put a couple scoups of beef tallow (fat) on top for oil.Then back in to the grille for about 10 -15 more minutes. But I also make about 6 local free range raw eggs whipped in a bowl and pour it on top and kind of stir it in. In 10 minutes I have a 3 day casserole that I divide in three and last me for 3 meals (days)! It only comes to about $5 per day to eat! It's awesome!!

One of the main foods I eat is just ground beef with cheese. I'm trying to learn some of your recipes. One thing I can't figure out is how to stretch my ground beef further. Everything I know to do to stretch beef is carbs: crackers, ground up bread crumbs, etc. Is it just easier to make the recipes? Or is there a keto way to stretch ground beef?

[@ncironhorse8367]

made these last night and the biggest issue (using the egglife wraps) is that they were hard to keep rolled up. They tasted good though

[@CarolynnMc01]

This looks so good and way less expensive than the store bought wraps. I wonder if a tablespoon or two of almond flour in the egg wrap mix would make a difference in the texture? I may try that.

Thank you. It makes sense

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

I usually just close my eyes and buy the Egglife because I'm lazy. 😂 They're $7.49 here for that 6 pack here, though, so maybe not for much longer... The homemade ones aren't so eggy if made with protein powder, in my experience, so it makes a good compromise for me between price and flavor/texture. Wish I could do the tortillas, but they mess me up in more ways than one. I do have another brand I haven't tried before coming on Thursday so we'll see. Even though it's grain, I actually don't have as bad effects on either digestion or inflammation with real corn tortillas but I only have them once 3-4 times a year. Probably a no-go if I tried to eat them regularly. Oh, and your recipe looks easy and delicious. LaVictoria is the only kind of canned enchilada sauce I like and they don't sell it here. 🙄 Thankfully, Amazon started carrying it last year(??) so I don't need to suffer with bad sauce. Or make my own. I'm an enchilada fan and a Chiles Rellenos Cassrrole fan (I use enchilada sauce for that) so I can buy a case and not have to toss much, if any.

[@NavyWife]

Would you please share with us how you make your wraps with Protein powder? Mi would love to try it.❤️❤️

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

@@NavyWife You just do it as Annie shows, but the ratio is for every cup of egg whites, you use 2 Tablespoons of unflavored protein powder. ETA: I meant to say, too, that you should always check the ketofocus website, especially for things like this that you see in her video. I just now looked and she gives instructions there for making them both ways. (And her ratio is the same as what I use) I have also been known to use slices of deli chicken or turkey as the tortillas. That's a different vibe, though, and they're not very sturdy and fall apart some, depending on how thickly they're sliced.

I would add spices to the egg wrap and see how that would taste

I see that when cooking the meat, you did not add anything like onions or peppers. I wanted to ask you wouldn’t the meat end up smelling metallic? Where I come from we always add onions to meat to take away the bloody taste.

[@justafryguy]

With eggs being so expensive now. You lost me at you need 32 eggs for egg whites. What am I supposed to do with the yolks???

[@KetoFocus]

In the video, I said buying the egg whites in the carton is cheaper than buying 32 eggs. And the pricing on this was calculated last week so it reflected the high prices of eggs and ingredients. Because all ingredient prices have gone up, not just eggs.

[@realsam4553]

I would just add more flavours to the egg mix, maybe that will help getting rid of the egg flavour.

Using just egg whites as a crime eggs are worthless unless you include the yolk also!

[@christianleetrager4605]

Keto without providing the macros is not Keto. That dish looks protein heavy, which will kick you out of Keto in less than 4-hours. The Keto ratio is not complicated. Every mouthful of food needs to be 75% fat, 20% protein, 5% net carbs. If you are eating other than that, then you are are going to stay in Ketosis. They are always saying "Keto is low carbs." It is NOT. Keto is high fat, low protein, and low net carbs.
