As someone new to the Keto diet, I found these recipes to be easy to understand and practical. The fact that they are slow cooker and one-pot allows me to make these recipes at home even when I'm on a time crunch.

I received a copy of Keto Slow Cooker & One-Pot Meals by Martina Slajerova from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Although I am new to the Keto diet and am still in the learning phase of meal planning, this book was a huge help! It spells out the "rules" simply and then shows how to adhere to them WITHOUT sacrificing taste or one's precious time!

I've only tried a few recipes thus far, but am looking forward to attempting more soon.

This is a good Keto cookbook. It would have been nice if the slow cooker recipes had also been adapted for an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker.

I’ve been placed on a low carb diet, so I️ thought I’d check out some keto recipes. I️ don’t see myself making one thing in this cookbook except maybe from the dessert section because who doesn’t love dessert?
I️ did find the first chapter about using a crock pot very informative though.

When I request cookery books, I only expect to get a few pages with some beautiful photographs and then some intriguing recipes that I may or may not try. The fact that this was the full book blew my mind. I've already tried two of the recipes, I live by my slow cooker, and they were delicious. This is definitely something I'd buy for myself or a family member in the future

I am always looking for ways to diversify the ketogenic diet that I follow. This, for me, has been the absolute best way to not only lose weight, but feel and look healthier. Keto Slow Cooker & One-Pot Meals is a great addition to my cookbook collection. I like that there is a healthy mixture of foods from all kinds of different regions. I love a variety of foods, and like recipes like chicken tikka masala, and moussaka. It is easier to eat well when you have a variety of delicious options! I also like that the nutrition facts are listed, particularly the fat and fiber which are both extremely important to track or at least have an idea of when eating this way. Particularly of note is the dessert section, which is full of delicious ways to conquer my sweet tooth without compromising the Keto way of life. I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone following any kind of low carbohydrate diet.

I've been trying to branch out and find new recipes for the ketogenic diet I'm on and had to grab this cookbook when I saw it. I'm all for slow cooker recipes or one pot meals mainly because they tend to be quick and easy or just set it and forget it. I found some amazing new recipes that make meal prep a breeze and quite a few more adventurous recipes I never would have tried before. This past weekend I did the "Make-Ahead Freezer Meatballs" and it makes a ton so whenever you need a quick meal after work you can pop them in the oven or on the stove top and you have a yummy dinner. If you're looking to expand your recipes for the ketogenic/keto diet this might be the book for you.

This book has a lot of great information on how to lose weight by doing a Keto diet. My husband and I have been on this diet almost two months and this book has helped us a lot. This book is easy to follow and has some great recipes in it as well that are easy to follow. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy of this book. The free book held no determination on my personal review.

I am going to be honest- I need to lose weight. So when I received a copy of Keto Slow Cooker & One-Pot Meals
via Netgalley, I was interested. I do not follow the Keto diet but I have been looking into to see if it was a lifestyle change I want to make. I am all about flavor and I don't like deprivation (hence the reason I need to lose weight haha).

I found that this cookbook has some great recipes that don't lack in flavor and variety. I have made two so far and they are delicious. I think Keto is something I can do!

SO far so good! I've tried a handful of recipes and really enjoyed them. Easy to follow and read. Most ingredients I have or at least can easily get.

Off to try a few ore meals!

Overall, a decent Keto cookbook. It can be a challenge to find true keto recipes that don't require hours in the kitchen. This cookbook offered several that stay within my targeted carb count, and seemed to use easily obtained ingredients. It's not a perfect cookbook for me - as in there probably only a handful of recipes that will work for my keto lifestyle, but it's still one that I'm happy to have gotten my hands on. Every new meal I can put into circulation is a win for me! This is definitely worth checking out!

A wonderful primer for a beginner trying their hand at slow cooking for the first time is provided at the beginning of the book. Also included are helpful tips on using an Instant Pot, electric pressure cooker.
A breakdown of ketogenic diet rules proves this is a well rounded book for those trying to eat healthy while working a full time schedule. If you need help getting dinner on the table while loosing weight get THIS book.
I have tried to do keto and it is hard while working full time. This will get me back on track.

If you're new to recipes for a ketogenic diet, you'll want to read this book. One thing I've found is that while most keto recipes focus on health and simplicity, many forget flavor. This book does a great job of educating readers on the health benefits of a ketogenic diet while showcasing how delicious and flavorful these recipes can be. Having recipes that can all be done in a slow cooker is an added bonus. I liked the layout of the book--gorgeous pictures for most recipes, easy-to-find nutritional and allergen information, and plenty of recipes to choose from. I'm so thankful this author acknowledges allergens and offers a handy substitution list at the beginning of the book. In fact, the concise tips and tricks at the beginning of the book will be helpful to most readers.

I bookmarked plenty of recipes for future use, and can already recommend the Red Pesto, Make-Ahead Slow Cooker Mash, and Festive Turkey Meatballs. Next on my list is the Creamy "Potato" Soup, Filipino Chicken Adobo, Korean Beef & Kimchi Stew, Spiced Orange Pudding, and Macadamia Chai Cake.

I recommend this book to anyone interested in a ketogenic diet. A number of the recipes will become staples in your weekly menu plan. Plus, these delicious recipes make it enjoyable to stick to a sometimes tricky diet. I plan to put this book on my recommended resources list for nutrition clients and I look forward to seeing more recipes from this author.

Easy to follow and interesting recipes which I would not have thought to cook without this book.

I’m always interested in low carb, higher fat meals, even though I’m not properly following the Keto diet myself. I also really like using a slow cooker (when I’m organised enough, that is) or, even better, one pot to do everything. Less washing up, less fuss! So this book hugely appealed to me, ticking three big boxes (slow cooker, one pot, low carb).

This book is great because it largely sticks with whole foods instead of lots of processed sauces and other ingredients, which also really appeals to me. The dishes are easy enough to follow, with clear photos and without crazily expensive, rare ingredients that you sometimes see in cookbooks trying to impress. These recipes are largely wholesome and nutritious and feel attainable.

The book includes a handy list of low-carb vegetables which I found so useful, and lots of lovely curry paste/ sauce recipes too! There are also great recipes for seasonings and roasting whole vegetables in the slow cooker too, plus some incredibly handy conversions for things like common allergens and sugar to sweetener so you know what you can substitute with what. There’s also a recipe for sauerkraut, which I’ve always fancied making, AND recipes for making your own coconut milk (if you can be arsed to) as well as loads of other handy recipes too.

This book, basically, inspired me in many ways to make more use of the slow cooking setting on my instant pot, instead of just using it to pressure cook or to cook rice. Though there are lots of meat-based recipes (the ‘fish ball tagine’, ‘turkey meatballs’, ‘morrocan lamb stew’ and ‘chicken tikka masala’ looked great), there are also lots of lovely vegetarian options too, like ‘eggplant (aubergine to us brits) parmesan’, and ‘broccoli & mushroom alfredo casserole’. As my partner is pescetarian, I mostly cook vegetarian or pescetarian recipes for both of us, but would definitely try some of the meat recipes for when I’m just cooking for myself. There are also some very tasty dessert recipes too!

All in all, this is a well-rounded Keto slow cooker/ one pot cookbook with recipes that feel attainable and are easy enough to follow. Highly recommended for anyone on a keto diet wanting to make more of their slow cooker, or just fancy keeping washing up to a minimum, or those who fancy a lower-cab diet too (within reason).
