Oof! I now this time of year can be tough if you are trying to stick to a diet of any sort. And no judgement if you are. It takes a lot of self control and determination so kudos to you! I have been through this myself with Keto and I wanted to share some alternatives with you. Below I will list some appetizers, side dishes, and desserts! Have at it and happy eating!
Apps
- Jalapeno Poppers
- Meat and Cheese Tray
- Relish Tray (No sweet pickles)
- Veggie Tray (broccoli, celery, cucumbers)
Sides
- Mashed Cauliflower
- Cauliflower Mac N Cheese
- Carbquick Biscuits
- Roasted Broccoli
- Brussel Sprouts and bacon
- Bacon wrapped asparagus
Desserts
- Low carb cheesecake
- Berries and whipped cream
- Keto Brownies
- Swerve cake/cupcakes
- Peanut Butter keto cookies
- Pumpkin Bars
Just about anything you would normally have, there is an alternative. You just have to get creative! I personally love the chocolate Swerve cake mix! And I make homemade buttercream frosting and maybe put some raspberries!
My favorite meats for the meat and cheese tray are pepperoni and summer sausage. I eat these whether I am on Keto or not to be honest. You can even add pecans or almonds to the tray and make it a little fancier!
What are your favorite low carb dishes? Let me know in the comments below. I’m always looking for new recipes and ideas!
