Keto Vegan Greek Roasted Cabbage Salad with Lemon Dressing makes a beautiful side dish to any Keto Mediterranean recipe. You will love this Low Carb side recipe! Purple cabbage is cut into wedges and then roasted under a broiler until golden brown. The pieces are allowed to cool and then are cut into 1” x 1” and then are tossed into a lovely lemon garlic vinaigrette. No, feel free to use green cabbage instead. However, red cabbage contains more fiber, calcium, iron, and magnesium. You do not need to use all the dressing if you light your salad dressed lighter. However, the macros listed for this recipe included the entire batch of dressing. Due to the cabbage's fibrous nature, you can dress the salad ahead of time, and the cabbage leaves will hold up to the acid. Please serve this Keto Vegan Roasted Cabbage Salad with Lemon Dressing with a delicious roast like a Low Carb Pot Roast.

These Keto Cheese Waffles with Egg and Prosciutto make for a protein-packed breakfast that can also be taken on the go. A cheesy batter made from blending eggs and mozzarella cheese is poured into a small waffle iron. This layer is topped with a piece of prosciutto and a sprinkling of more mozzarella cheese. The result is a crispy, meaty, salty waffle that will surely hit your Keto cravings just right! They would even be delicious topped with maple syrup if you were looking for a sweet and salty combo. The waffles hold up wonderfully to being frozen. Simply place them into a freezer zip lock bag and then into the freezer. Once ready to reheat, put them in a toaster oven or in the microwave. Yes! Feel free to use other kinds of cured meats like coppa, salami, soppressata, and more. The trick is to trim the cured meat down to the size of the waffle iron. Pasture-raised eggs are the most nutritious eggs as they are high in omega 3 fatty acids and can have up to almost twice the amount of Vitamin E compared to conventional eggs. Pair these Keto Cheese Waffles with an on-the-go biscuit-like these Keto Bacon and Pepper Jack Drop Biscuits: https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe-detail/ug:11a03b9b-81d8-7a5c-2f42-96ac52b6b4be/keto-breakfast-bacon-and-pepper-jack-drop-biscuits

Set these Keto onion rings down and theyll go fast! You wonll keep your hands out of this finger food and neither will any kids hanging around. Sweet yellow onions are breaded in a simple pork rind breading (your choice of plain or spicy). In fact, you only need 3 ingredients to make this Keto-friendly snack! They bake up perfectly crisp in the oven without burning or becoming too soft. The pork rinds add just the right amount of saltiness, but you are welcome to add any extra seasonings you enjoy to the breading. Make this recipe when you have the time because while the onion rings can be stored in your refrigerator for eating at a later time, theybre at their best quality if eaten fresh out of the oven. If you are looking for a Keto condiment recipe for dipping these bad boys in, some Carb Manager suggestions are made in the final step of the recipe! You can save yourself a little time if you choose to use an air fryer instead of your oven. If you decide to use an air fryer, set it to 350 degrees instead of 425 degrees. Cook the onion rings for 10 minutes to start, and add on more time as needed. After 10 minutes, check if you need to flip the onion rings over or not to avoid burning. Depending on your style of air fryer, some items need to be flipped and some donbt. Yellow onions are the best for making onion rings. You can usually find yellow onions that are evenly round and just the right size for a Keto snack. Yellow onions are a middle-ground between white onions and Vidalia onions for sweetness. While Vidalia onions are sweeter, this also means theyll have a little more carbohydrates per serving than yellow onions. Not to mention, yellow onions are cheaper anyways! Jessica L.
This savory breakfast is packed with healthy fats, a moderate amount of protein, and a touch of vegetables. Prepare these avocado halves in the oven while getting ready for the day. Choose large, slightly firm avocados for this recipe, as they will soften during baking. Inspired by Jessica L.
Keto Turnip Hash Browns are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional potato hash browns. This recipe is simple, easy to follow, and yields crispy, golden-brown hash browns that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a side dish. Fresh turnips are peeled and grated, then combined with an egg and salt to create a flavorful batter. The key to achieving crispy hash browns is to remove as much moisture as possible from the turnip shreds before cooking. This can be done by squeezing the shreds in a lint-free towel or cheesecloth. The batter can be customized with your favorite spices, seasonings, or even cheese. Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as sour cream, yogurt, fresh herbs, or a fried egg. While turnips are the star of this recipe, you can also use other root vegetables like daikon radish, red radishes, rutabaga, or parsnips, keeping in mind that the net carb content may vary. For those with dairy sensitivities, the sour cream shown in the photo is optional and can be added separately to your macros. Enjoy these Keto Turnip Hash Browns as a satisfying and guilt-free way to start your day or complement any meal.

These easy Keto bread rolls are prepared in one bowl, without the need for a food processor. This simple Keto bread recipe is packed with low carb flours and fibrous ground flaxseed, creating a low carb whole grain texture. These are a great option as a side to accompany your Keto dinner, or served for breakfast or lunch with your favorite low carb fillings. We have used ground almonds to create our Keto artisan bread rolls. Ground almonds have a lower carb count than almond flour as they are not so highly processed and also have a coarser texture, adding to the whole grain consistency. You could use almond flour for this recipe if preferred, but it will alter the texture and consistency slightly. We have used butter and yogurt to add moisture and fats to our low carb rolls. If you are on a dairy-free diet, you may substitute the butter for coconut oil and the yogurt for a dairy-free Keto compliant alternative. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.
