Why Use Perfect Keto Mac & Cheese

Mac & Cheese is a classic meal that is a part of many people’s childhoods and upbringing. It is the perfect combination of deliciousness and convenience. It is therefore only fair that you would want to indulge in it even after transitioning to a ketogenic diet.

However, traditional mac and cheese just doesn’t fit on a ketogenic diet. A single serving of mac and cheese can have over 40 grams of net carbs. This is mostly due to the fact that the macaroni is made from wheat which is over 95% carbs.

There are plenty of keto mac and cheese recipes on the internet but most of them require a sizable investment of time and resources. We imagine no one wants to spend one and a half hours preparing a single serving of mac and cheese.

This is why we have taken time and developed the perfect mac and cheese that is not only Keto Certified but also healthy, delicious, and convenient. In addition to all these great qualities, the Perfect Keto Mac & Cheese is also affordable, starting at $2 per serving.

Lupin Flour

• Lupin flour is a type of flour made from the Lupin bean.
• The Lupin bean is a yellow bean popular in Mediterranean countries for its rich tart taste.
• In other parts of the world, it is ground to make Lupin flour. In fact, some wheat flour contains Lupin flour to enrich its flavor and color.
• The bean possesses a very rich nutrition profile with the most notable nutrients being fiber and protein.
• Fiber is a very important nutrient well-known for its role in maintaining digestive health. Dietary fiber is able to improve digestive health in two ways: acting as a prebiotic and improving gut motility[*].
• A prebiotic is a substance that acts as a source of food for the good bacteria in the gut. Gut motility is the stretching and contractions of the muscles in the gastrointestinal tract as food makes its way through.
• Protein, as you may know, is essential for the growth, maintenance, and repair of body structures. You may have seen some plant-based meat substitutes that are Lupin-based. This is due to the rich protein content of the bean.

Sunflower Seed Flour

• This is a type of flour made from grinding sunflower seeds.
• It isn’t as popular as almond flour but it has the advantage of being nut-free making it suitable for those with nut allergies.
• Seeds are one of the most keto-friendly foods. Sunflower seeds are low in carbs, and high in protein and fat.
• In addition to being very keto-friendly, sunflower seeds also offer a wide array of nutrients, particularly vitamin E.
• Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin with strong antioxidants properties[*]. Antioxidants are essential for human health because they help to fight disease-causing free radicals at the cellular level.

Soluble Tapioca Fiber

• Soluble tapioca fiber is a type of dietary fiber.
• It is made from tapioca starch but during processing, the product loses all of the starch and digestible carbohydrates. It therefore has 0 net carbs.
• Soluble tapioca fiber helps to prevent sharp spikes in blood glucose levels after eating[*]. This is because it slows down stomach emptying due to its low digestibility.
