Beautiful book with great, tasty and kid approved recipes.
I'm not a natural cook and frankly I'd prefer to buy something ready to go, but even I've managed to successfully make several of these recipes!

I love this book! It’s well organized, full of relevant information, the recipes are easy to follow but not simplistic. She includes modifications and cooking tips for variations of recipes. Pictures are clear and beautiful.

My absolute favorite Keto book so far! And I have a bunch!! I have already pre ordered Carolyn's next book. So many great recipes, without a million hard to find ingredients. They are even a hit with my non keto son!

I have been keto for an entire year and just got this book. And I love it! It break everything down, it would be a great book for beginners. I learned a lot also! Like which sugar alcohols do what when baking.

I love Carolyn Ketchum and her website so I was very exited to buy this book. Unfortunately for me, at least half (or more) of the recipes contain dairy ingredients which are a no-no for me. So I tend not to use her cookbook. If you can eat dairy, I think you'll be very pleased with this book! and check out her website: alldayidreamaboutfood.com

This book got a lot of reviews for uncommon ingredients that aren't easily found and I'd have to agree. The recipes all sound/look delicious but with some pretty unique ingredients, I don't think it's very doable for me personally. Also, I was hoping for some sort of guidelines regarding how much of each macronutrient (fat, protein, carbs) I should be eating but I didn't really see anything like that. I wish I had bought this book used instead of paying full price for what to me is a book full of recipes that require ingredients I can't find easily.

I just received this today. I normally do not read a cookbook from front cover to back cover. However, this one, was made with such quality and the visuals were so pleasing to my eyes! I decided to give it a try! From the forward page to the index - very well written! I really feel like I will be using this daily - just like my Bible. I highly recommend this book if you are trying Keto for the first time. The recipes look delicious. I definitely am going to start using these recipes starting later tonight! I have seen her blog and some of her recipes online and I have tried a couple. I love how precise she is because that makes the recipes fail safe! It’s a big book & plenty of recipes & plenty of tips & great ideas! I bought a couple of things off the store to prepare me for the new recipes. I can’t say how much I recommend this book! Best money I’ve spent so far on this new lifestyle of mine!

The content is fantastic. My friend has a copy of this book so I got a sneak peek of it before I purchase. The copy I received might have been stored in a not ideal environment though as there is something on the bottom that looks like mold. I tried to wipe it away with paper towel but it didn't come off.

I did appreciate the information in the intro (especially as a type 1 diabetic who is glad that someone finally acknowledges the difference between 1 & 2 & gestational, etc).... but, that being said, I have tried several recipes and several just did not turn out as well as they should have.

* Cream cheese waffles (p 108) - not bad, very thin batter
* Chocolate crepes - photo attached (p 110) - horrible, did not cook properly at all despite following recipe perfectly - threw the batter away, which I never do :(
* Spaghetti bolognese (p 214) - WAY too salty, beef should have been drained after cooking but wasn't in the instructions to do so
* Butter pecan cookies (p 328) - not bad but not sturdy like real cookies
* No-bake brownie cheesecake bars (p 332) - way too coconutty, didn't really taste like brownies or cheesecake, but tasted ok

I have tried other recipes from Carolyn's website and she seems to really like adding a LOT of salt to them. If recipes had not been tested in multiple kitchens by multiple people, they should have done so. Also, the index could have been done better. (I just tried to look up "waffles" and it isn't listed under W... why??)

Great book. A lot of info about the Keto plan and sugars. I have made several recipes and all of them have turned out great. All the recipes have nutritional information. She also gives you recommendations for substitutes. I like this book because the amount of ingredients I would have to buy to make a recipe is not overwhelming. There are also minimal special keto ingredients, most of the stuff I already have in my pantry. Author also has a wonderful blog with a lot of recipes, that is how I found this book.

Love this book. I haven’t bought a cookbook in a Long time but this is worth it. If you are trying to eat healthy or lose weight this should be your holy grail. Ketogenic does work! I’ve lost 35 lbs and managed to keep it off. Don’t even miss the food I used to eat. (Except French fries?). No sub for that yet but everything else I still get to eat. Sandwiches, pizza, cookies, muffins, etc. it does take planning and that’s were a cookbook like this really helps! Craving chocolate cake? Carolyn has you covered! Follow her blog and buy the book!

This book is much more than a cookbook.. It is a inspiration. I have already tried several recipes and am thrilled.

This book.... I just received it yesterday and I stayed up 2 hours past my bedtime because I couldn't stop reading it! I have mapped out what I want to cook in the next week. I have made several of Carolyn's recipes from her blog, and she is the reason I have continued with Keto. Low carb doesn't have to be tedious and boring! Her recipes are the greatest!

This just came yesterday...I've already pored over it. It is amazing! If you have never bumped into her site, FB page or recipe online- do it now! And buy this book! If you are at all remotely curious about ketogenic diets, this is a bible. You will never feel you are deprived or missing out!

???? Double thumbs up.
We are a low carb family and the recipes hit the spot! The cinnamon rolls are probably our favourite low carb dessert. It is easy to use these recipes to create variations. I expect my copy will be covered with cooking stains by Christmas, it is a go to cookbook.

Definitely one of the best keto books out there now. Lots of easy to follow recipes with pictures and nutrition information. I can tell this book was made with love. Nice put together book. Worth the money. Will be buying her other books coming out. I trust the recipes and they did not knock me out of Ketosis.

I pre-ordered Carolyn's book on the store, received it today as promised. I love the format and it is so much more than a cookbook. A must-have for health. I have been eating this way since July 2014. Carolyn has made it so easy to stay eating this way and I can eat all my favorite foods again. I have followed her on Facebook and her blog and am so proud of her! Every single recipe I have tried is so good. I can not wait to try more! Congratulations Carolyn on being an author with an amazing book. You fan, Pam

This is a lovely book. The photos are gorgeous, the recipes all sound delicious, and the introductory information is extremely helpful. I will be using this much more than most of my cookbooks because the recipes are made with user friendly ingredients, and are not complicated to prepare. Kudos to the author for such a successful first venture. I'm eagerly looking forward to her next books.

Many easy keto recipes with beautiful photos. The cookbook isn’t spiral bound but it will stay open if you’re making something from it. I think that’s important and I’m sure it was a consideration. I attended a book signing on Carolyn’s first book tour and she was captivating. She has lots of answers!

I really wanted to like this book. Bad thing is it’s only about baking! I wanted to see more chicken,ribs,steak recipes. The book has wonderful amazing recipes but I’m a meat kind of girl. And I’m not sure if the book I purchased was used because there were some pages that were damaged, like shriveled.

I love Carolyn's work, and her recipes have been staples in my house for a long time. I was excited to get her book, and disappointed to see that the printing is very poor. Many pages are printed strangely, and some of the words are quite fuzzy. I will still look forward to making some of the recipes in it however!

This is a beautiful cookbook but way too many of the recipes use dairy with only occasional offerings of substitutions. Since I am sensitive to dairy I am unable to use many of the recipes so have returned the book. In addition, dairy is an inflammatory food and for anyone focusing on a health who uses dairy as a protein, especially as much as this author suggests, diminishes many of the other healthy aspects of a keto diet.

I received this cookbook as a gift and it is already my new favorite. I am an avid follower of Carolyn Ketchum's blog and had high hopes for her first cookbook. It did not disappoint. I have been eating keto for just over a year. I started in order to lose 15 pounds that had creeped up. I continue because I feel so much better eating low-carb, low-sugar, and gluten-free. The cookbook has wonderful sections on a ketogenic diet, ketogenic ingredients, and tips for successful ketogenic baking. Then it dives into some seriously delicious recipes. Don't be fooled by the simplicity. Every thing I've made so far has been easy and delicious. My family's favorites so far are Easy Taco Pie, Roasted Cabbage Wedges with Blue Cheese and Bacon, Spicy Shrimp and Cucumber Noodles, Cheesy Cauliflower Grits, and No-Bake Haystack Cookies. And there are many more recipes I can't wait to try. I have no hesitation recommending this cookbook whether you are new to the ketogenic way of eating or an old-hand at it. Carolyn Ketchum is a magician in the keto kitchen and even her most simple recipes result in a satisfying tasty meal that the whole family will enjoy - including those who don't adhere to a low-carb way of eating.

I am getting ready to start a keto diet in January, and this way of eating is totally new to me. So I decided to get this book to help me figure it out. I am so glad I did! I own too many cookbooks to count, but this is one of the best. I read it cover to cover, and was totally impressed with the quality of the editing (I didn't see one typo!); how great the recipes are (There is literally not one I don't think I'd like); and the quality and beauty of the book. Although it is a paperback (no I didn't get the Kindle edition that the review shows), it uses the highest quality paper (It actually weighs over 2.5 lbs!), and every recipe has a beautiful color photo. It is laid out for easy cooking (no recipes spanning to a different page -- I hate that). There is even an index section that has color photos of each item (I've never seen that before). I also appreciated the introductory part that explains differences in various products and recommends some brand named ones, and even what kitchen equipment would be helpful (but not necessary). I was a little apprehensive to start this way of living, but now I think it will be totally doable and tasty. It even lists various keto resources that will be helpful. I can't recommend this book highly enough! I was totally impressed!

I've been waiting for the talented food blogger Carolyn Ketchum to put her amazing Keto recipes into a book and it is finally here! Do not miss out! These recipes are not only delicious, they are also family friendly! I made the BBQ pulled pork and my kids are still asking me to make it again!

Watch out Betty Crocker! Carolyn is my new go to recipe girl!

WOW...where do I begin. I was looking for a diabetic cookbook or something that was semi sugar free and low carbs. I was disappointed in the Diabetic cookbook reviews whereas a lot of reviewers complained of high carbs and issues with the recipes. I would think if it was an excellent diabetic cookbook it would adhere closely to true recipes in controlling blood sugars but too many reviews didn't indicate that. Confused again!
In one review tho, Carolyn Ketchums name was mentioned and the review was intriguing. I found the cookbook on the store and was impressed by the 5 stars with 500+ reviews and thought it must be really good or Carolyn has a lot of friends. This is where the WOW comes in. I purchased it realizing it was Ketogenic which I had sort of tried before but finding good recipes and understanding actually how to go forward and not knowing what products should I buy turned me off. The information really wasn't there.
In comes Everyday Ketogenic Kitchen. Unbelievably informative. I have never, ever seen a cookbook that literally answers all your questions as you are reading the recipes. She tells you what brand you can buy, and where to buy it. Explains the difference in one oil or the other and why not to substitute Almond flour for Coconut flour. It is better to buy Cacao Butter chips and not a block. The information on sweeteners and which to choose from was a great help. There is so much good information that I have already cleaned out my pantry and have ordered new ingredients. I have never heard of a mozzarella crust for pizza or bread sticks. Recipes for crackers & chips that I will actually be able to make & eat without feeling guilty. The food recipes appear to be very easy to make and look delicious and definitely looking forward to trying them all. This seriously feels like a food bible to me. It has not gone unnoticed that an incredible amount of research and work went into putting this cookbook together. She obviously gave a considerable amount of time thinking what a newbie or seasoned reader would need to use the recipes in her book.
Thank you Carolyn for having the insight to put together a cookbook that is truly fantastic. I also found her blog and I am now a follower. The next best thing will be the Dessert Cookbook coming out in July which I will certainly pre-order! FIVE STARS all the way..

I have been following Carolyn's blog, All Day I Dream about Food, for a few years now, so I'm no stranger to her delicious recipes and beautiful photography. Of course, I needed to check out her new cookbook.

When I received this cookbook, I was blown away by how thorough the cookbook is. Not only does it contain loads of recipes, but there is also a section discussing keto ingredients, one discussing equipment to make keto cooking easier, and even a seven day sample diet. If you're new to eating keto or low-carb, or can only buy one cookbook, this is the one for you!

The book contains loads of recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, beverages, and snacks. There is a large section with breads, muffins, and scones, which are foods that are frequently missed by those on a keto diet. Carolyn has us covered!

Carolyn has made her cookbook a work of art. She uses the same white on white style of photography that she uses in her blog. I enjoy paging through it just to look at the pictures.

In short, I love this book and highly recommend it to those eating low-carb or ketogenic diets.
