Liz MacDowell is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and avid foodie who has been cooking up plant-based ketogenic recipes since 2012. After years of crash diets, disordered eating, and constantly feeling sick, she realized there was no quick fix and enrolled in a nutrition program at Bauman College to try and fix her eating habits from the inside out. While a nutrition student, Liz stumbled across the ketogenic diet one night while browsing Reddit and decided to give it a go. Through lots of trial and error, she found what works for her body and began creating low-carb vegetarian recipes to keep things interesting. Liz started MeatFreeKeto.com to share these recipes with others who want to explore a low-carb or ketogenic diet without eating meat. By eating a plant-based low-carb diet, Liz has been able to control her symptoms of endometriosis and Raynaud’s, as well as keep her blood sugar and weight in check. When she’s not cooking up new recipes (and making messes) in the kitchen, she loves to hike, read, practice yoga, and indulge in the occasional computer game.
