Mediterranean Vegetable Frittata

Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs and Veggies

I find thighs the tastiest part of a chicken, plus they are way cheaper than breasts, for example. Pair them with any vegetables you fancy and coat everything in an aromatic marinade to skyrocket the taste.

Keto Pork Chops with Spinach

Pork chops with mushrooms and spinach can be a great option if you’re following a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Pork chops are a good source of protein and healthy fats, while spinach adds fiber, vitamins, and minerals (like iron and magnesium). Mushrooms offer antioxidants and important micronutrients, like selenium and vitamin D.

Pork and Cabbage Stir Fry

This dish has only two main ingredients: cabbage and ground pork. I like the spice combo here, with soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger, but you can definitely add some bacon to enrich the flavors even more.

Keto Shepherds Pie

The filling for shepherd’s pie is already keto-friendly, as it involves ground meat, carrots, peas, bell peppers, and spices. The main keto twist is in topping, where you’re swapping mashed potatoes with cauliflower, parmesan, and loads of spices.

One Pan Chicken Alfredo

Chicken alfredo is a quick dinner option that pairs with a million side dishes, from roasted or grilled veggies to konjac noodles. The white sauce is definitely on the richer side here, as it calls for heavy cream and a fair share of parmesan cheese.
