Januworry Challenge 2025

 


First up:


Get our new book, here!




This year we will be doing something a little different.

This challenge will be carnivore/carnivore based.

3 meal plans will be available:

1. This one will be a carnivore one with more common cuts of meat.

2. This one will be a budget friendly carnivore meal plan, because ya know, Januworry.

3. This one will be Carnivore based, but will include things like bread in a mug and very low carb veggies, for those that think they can't give up these things cold turkey.
