Get Fit Right – Keto/LCHF Menu

It’s a misconception that you’ll be eating boring and bland food when you’re on a LCHF diet. While simple foods are important, there’s so many ways to add variety. From single serve portions to meals that will feed a whole family, we make sticking to the program much simpler. We can even send the macros to your My Fitness Pal.

Sides
$18/up to 4 containers
Some of our customers are really happy to make fresh sides as they are required and others want to heat and eat their meals.
We can make a side for you when we cook and keep them in separate containers for you to add to your dishes when you are ready to eat them. Chat to your cook about how you would like them stored.
Sides like rice and mash are cooked, ready to eat. To assist with freshness, vegetables are prepared ready to cook when reheating.
