Keto Meal Plan for Busy People: 5 Minutes of Prep, Maximum Results
You do not need to be a gourmet chef or spend hours in the kitchen to succeed on keto. This plan is built around maximum convenience without sacrificing nutrition.
Breakfast (2 minutes)
Scramble 3 eggs in butter with a handful of spinach. Done. Or simply eat: a boiled egg (batch prepped), a few slices of smoked salmon, and half an avocado.
Lunch (5 minutes)
A tin of tuna or sardines with olive oil, mixed leaves, and cucumber. Add some full-fat mayonnaise and it takes under 5 minutes. Find more ideas in our keto lunch recipes.
Dinner (15–20 minutes)
Grill or pan-fry a piece of salmon, chicken, or steak. Microwave some broccoli. Top with butter or a sauce. Our keto main dish recipes include many 20-minute options.
Snacks (zero prep)
Hard-boiled eggs, cheese, nuts, olives, and full-fat Greek yoghurt require no preparation at all. Keep these stocked and snacking stays keto automatically.
The One-Hour Sunday Prep
Boil 6 eggs, cook 500g mince, and portion nuts. That one hour makes the entire week almost effortless.
