At first glance, the keto diet seems too good to be true. A diet that encourages butter and cheese consumption — did I hear that right? Yup, you did. The keto (short for ketogenic) diet is a low-carb, high-fat plan that forces your body into a state of ketosis so it produces ketones in your liver to use as energy instead of carbohydrates. But what ends up happening for many of those who try the diet is a nightly rotation of buttered meats and cheesy vegetable bakes.

If you're on the keto diet and you'd like to diversify your nightly dinners, we have recipes that will add a welcome dose of seafood into your meal plan. Read through now for 11 mouthwatering keto-friendly seafood recipes.
