This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I have been doing dirty keto for awhile now and wondered if there were any new tips that I could pick up or maybe a new recipe. For the most part, this was information that I already knew and had tried but always enjoy getting new recipes.

The 30 minutes or less recipes were more my speed and I doubt that I would try some of the more involved recipes. I just don't want to take that much time!

I do like that there were options to use as I remember when I first was on keto that I bought a ton of weird ingredients to try recipes and just did not enjoy them. So, I agree with the author that going towards a more "diry" keto allows you more freedom and it is easier to stick to the keto lifestyle.

This is a great cookbook that provides an easy and balanced approach to the keto diet. It demonstrates that keto isn't all just cheese and meat.

This book is awesome. The recipes are simple and all appear delicious. The instructions are clear and step-by-step. The format is terrific, even in ebook format. Lots of cookbooks don't translate well to epub or Kindle format, but this one is perfect.
I am going to use this book a lot!

ARC provided.

A year back I started a keto diet, but it was too difficult to maintain in todays world of work, caring for a family and all the demands placed on a person. I wish I had found this book then.

Chapters are well organized by meal categories and there's tons of options. Breakfast has more than the standard egg dishes and lunch more than meat and cheese options. I, personally, gave a couple recipes a try. Thai infused shrimp, green chicken enchilada soup, and easy flank steak were all delish! So, I have high expectations for the rest and can't wait to give them a try.

I truly appreciate a cookbook that takes the time to layout recipes in a clear organized manner. And its even better to have ingredients that are readily available at my local market.

Many thanks to NetGallery, Callisto Media, Rockridge Press and Emilie Bailey for taking the work out of cooking a healthy meal.

I enjoyed this book because I have been on a keto diet and liked how I felt, but I couldn't keep it going after a while. This book as the title says easy. It isn't as strict as keto but from what I have seen so far will give you great results. That is what I was looking for.
The author gives you the foundation of keto, what to have in your pantry, quick meals, and you can enjoy breakfast, dessert, milkshakes, so you don't feel like you are missing out on what everyone else is eating. For me, the author was accepting that not everyone could be and stay on keto, so she came up with a plan that people could live with. As I was reading the book and starting to eat the foods, I wished I had started out with this book. I think I can succeed using this cookbook as my foundation, and will be able to stick with it. One reason being is when I go to the grocery store, I can pick up some things without just buying ingredients, and making it their way. This isn't cheating to me, it is giving me the tools or foods that will inspire me to want to keep eating this way. That is all I want, to be able to have the benefits of being in keto without all the work.
I received an ARC from Rockridge Press through NetGalley.

I need some easier and quicker Keto and low carb recipes because I am about to start working full time again, and for the first time as a single mom, so I need some short cuts. Easy Dirty Keto allows me to eat in a ketogenic way that I will be able to maintain. There are a lot of really great recipes in the book that I can't wait to try!

"Dirty" keto, or a ketogenic diet that uses prepackaged and convenience foods instead of insisting on everything being made from scratch, is a useful adaptation for people who live in the real world and have jobs, lives, and limited interest in making their own ketchup.

This is a great guide to the principles of dirty keto and a good collection of everyday recipes. The recipes sound appealing, use commonly available ingredients, and are mostly quick and simple to put together. There are limited pictures, which is a missed opportunity, and some of the serving sizes for calculating nutrition facts are a little dubious (who eats 1/4 of a quesadilla???), but there are a lot of good ideas here and it would be useful to have on hand.

Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review!

I think the variety of recipes was awesome. Super easy to follow, which is essential for a novice like me. I just thought that it was such a shame there weren't pictures of each dish. I eat with my eyes and I also need the visual motivation to cook (Yes, I am the worst).

The book lives up to the name: it is, for the most part, keto and low carb. But it uses a few premade items such as low carb tortillas, sugar free teriyaki sauce, low carb bread, and even sugar free apricot jam. There's no egregious non keto items - so there is not a lot of guilt here to worry about.

The recipes are broken down by the usual: breakfast, snacks, meat type, vegetarian, desserts. There is only one photograph per section so for the most part, none of the recipes have images. Each recipe is several colors and highlighted with nutrition specifications (e.g., gluten-free, nut-free, vegetarian, vegan, gluten free). There are also key words at top: e.g., one pan meal, worth the wait, 5 or fewer ingredients, 30 minutes. Serving size, prep time and cook time are given. A small paragraph describes the recipe. Ingredients are large bold type. Steps are numbered and only 1-2 sentences long (easy to follow). Tips are given for nearly every recipe. The bottom of the recipe has per serving nutrition info (calories, fat, protein, total carbs, fiber, net carbs) and a macros breakdown for fat, protein and carbs percentages.

The recipes have a nice variety and because they are not strictly unprocessed food keto, there is some nice variety and quite a selection. Examples include carmelized brussels sprouts, easy clam chowder, blackened fish taco, chicken cobb salad, turkey curry, loaded brats, caramel flan, and many more. Quite a few of the items are intriguing and I am having fun exploring.

I like that the cookbook isn't focused on the typical ingredients of almond milk/flour (for those of us intolerant or sensitive to nuts) or overly heavily reliant on cauliflower. There is also a surprising variety of flavors and consistencies to be found.

In all, I would have loved images for the recipes. But the book is what it promises and definitely worth a look. Reviewed from an advance reader copy provided by the publisher.

Amazing recipes without having to worry about ketosis! I can't wait to try more recipes from this cookbook.

An excellent cookbook for anyone new to or struggling with the formulaic version of Keto dieting. In addition to lots and lots of delicious recipes, there is a big section at the front with an introduction to keto, as well as lots of food suggestions, snack suggestions, and easy tips and tricks for making keto dieting easy and simple.

Thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

There are so many great recipes in here! Lots of great information to transition to A Keto lifestyle. Highly recommend giving this one a read.
