Dr Jockers Comments
This is a great plant-based, ketogenic main course that is full of phytonutrient rich ingredients that help you burn fat for fuel. If you are looking for a tasty vegan dish to enjoy than try this one out as it is really good!
Coconut flour wraps are one of my favorite foods as they taste great and you can do a lot with them as far as wraps, fajitas, etc. They are low in protein and carbs and high in healthy coconut fats which makes them a perfect food on the ketogenic lifestyle.
The cilantro lime vinegarette provides a ton of phytonutrient rich antioxidants that help the body to cleanse and detoxify. The avocado and olive oil help the body to full out a higher proportion of fat-soluble antioxidants from the veggies as well.
