Easy Loaded Chicken Bake

This recipe from The Healthy Mommy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge Keto Lite meal plan and is high in protein to boost your metabolism and blast fat.

To save time with meal prep make meals in bulk. Either make two batches of every family dinner you prepare or one larger batch. Then you can have leftovers for another day or reheat for lunch.

The Healthy Mommy Keto Lite meal plan DOESN’T get people into a state of ketosis, it’s more about the macro split of meals each day i.e. moderate protein, higher in healthy fats, lower in carbs. Not harsh but still effective.

About The Healthy Mommy Keto Lite

When our Nutritionist designed The Healthy Mommy Keto Lite: Safe for Moms meal plan, the recipes selected were closer to a low carb, moderate protein and moderate to high fat split.

We’ve allowed a variation in each macro-nutrient so our mums have more flexibility in meal planning and offer a wider range of meals suitable for families, compared with a strict ketogenic diet.

What we aimed for was to have each meal as close to this range as possible:
Carbohydrates 15-30%
Fat 40-70%
Protein 15-30%

Some recipes have lower carbs or higher proteins, but the majority of the recipes fit inside these guidelines.
