Keto diet? low carb diet?

 A high school friend started a food delivery business gourmet gains (www.gourmet-gains.com). He used to work at Disneyland as a chef. But because of the pandemic he has been laid off.

To show my support, and also try to make life easier I ordered 15 meals from him and they will be delivered tomorrow morning. I clicked the box to have all the meals be 'keto-style.'  I don't think I will be going on a keto diet. But I just didn't want to pay for rice or potatoes or pasta... all of which I could easily make on my own. 

I'm still trying to decide who is going to eat those meals? Thanks to the pandemic, we are all working from home and the kids are home for all 3 meals everyday. Even though I don't want to, we end up 'cooking' breakfast and lunch and dinner for them everyday. THAT IS A LOT OF WORK. Who wants to COOK 3 meals a day, 7 days a week?!  I really need to teach the kids how to reheat leftovers...

One of my kids is pretty good about just pouring a bowl of cereal or making a toast and moving on.  The other kid has loves long, lingering meals and loves carbs. I once woke up and saw that she cooked herself an entire block of udon AND served herself a bowl of rice with furikake FOR BREAKFAST.  @_@  I was so pissed at her Dad for letting her have such a terrible breakfast.  But that does make me want to ask... what would a HEALTHY breakfast look like?

BTW: I'm now the mom of 3 kids! 10,7 and 1 :-)  The baby was not an accident. She is my mid-life crisis baby.
