Mix together: 1/3 cup mayo + 1 tbsp sugar-free ketchup + 1 tsp mustard + 1 tsp pickle juice (optional) + pinch of paprika.

How to make it

1. Brown the meat in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drain if needed.

Keto Mom Tip

Make extra meat and use it tomorrow for a burger bowl, taco salad, stuffed bell peppers, or even a quick egg scramble. One pan, two lunches. That’s a win.

And if afternoons are when cravings usually hit, this is where I personally love adding K1 Ketones into my routine. K1 is something I use for smoother energy, better focus, and appetite support — especially on busy days when I want to feel fueled without grabbing random snacks.

You don’t have to be perfect. You just need simple meals, better choices, and support that helps you stay consistent.
