Cheap Proteins That Fit Keto
Keto does not mean expensive meat every day. Some of the most affordable foods in Kenya are perfect for it. Eggs are your best friend, filling, cheap by the tray, and easy to boil or fry for any meal. Omena (dagaa) is packed with protein and healthy fats, and a small heap goes a long way with sukuma. Offal like matumbo, liver, and kidney is usually cheaper than prime cuts and very nutritious. Chicken necks and beef with a bit of fat also work well. The trick is to buy what is in season and near your area, since prices swing a lot. You do not need a big budget to eat enough protein, you just need to shop smart and cook at home. Mix and match these through the week so meals stay interesting and your pocket stays happy.
Takeaway. Eggs, omena, and offal give you plenty of keto protein without draining your M-Pesa.
