Going keto doesn’t have to mean giving up traditionally carb-heavy treats like stuffing. Next time you’re preparing your favorite roast or holiday meal, give this keto-friendly stuffing a try. This stuffing dish goes great with all types of meat and vegetables. Even people who love traditional stuffing will enjoy it.
There’s no need to skip stuffing this Thanksgiving or Christmas if you’ve taken up a keto diet. To keep the carb count low, this dish uses keto-friendly mug bread, which when baked, will crisp up beautifully.
Making the stuffing is super simple. Start by preparing and then sautéing the vegetables. They’ll taste amazing when cooked in butter and garlic. You then need to break the mug bread up into little bits and bake it for a few minutes. All you need to do then is mix all of the ingredients and bake the stuffing mixture. Simple as that.
If you want to stuff your bird before cooking you can do that too, both ways work great—just add a bit more moisture to the recipe if you’re going to use it to stuff the meat while roasting; this prevents the stuffing from drying out too much. Once the meat is stuffed, you then just need to cook it normally. When planning your next holiday meal, make sure you include this stuffing dish—the whole family will love it. Guaranteed.
