Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following...
1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt.
2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.
3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.
In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice.
IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.
We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
There's been requests for a dedicated recipe forum for some time now. What we originally envisioned was an Article section where recipes could be featured, and automatically crossposted here - similar to how our Articles section and our Downloads section is connected to the Articles and Resources forum. This functionality is still something that we plan on implementing in the near future.
In the meantime, everyone is welcome to share their meat-based recipes here, whether they are strict carnivore, keto, or animal-based in nature. We only ask of a few things...
The first post in the topic should be an actual recipe, OR a news article that links to several recipes.
For example, if you are sharing a recipe from another website or video, by all means, link to the source material. But please post the recipe ingredients and instructions in the body of the post. We want to have the actual text of the recipe in your first post just in case that linked source takes their page or video down.
You can also share an article that contains several recipe ideas. If you choose to do this, please add some context or share a snippet from that article.
We want the recipe section to be a repository of recipes. If you don't have a specific recipe to share but are simply looking for recipe ideas, please post these types of topics/requests in the Carnivore Keto Support forum.
