You’ve probably heard great things about low carb or Keto Diet but don’t know how that’ll fit in with your vegetarian lifestyle.
Rest assured, you can stick to a meat-free Vegetarian diet AND also be low carb or keto!
We definitely understand the limitations of juggling the two health plans together, my husband is following a Keto Diet and could eat meat and dairy all day, yet my body doesn’t tolerate dairy very well, and while I don’t mind seafood on occasion, I feel my best when I stick to a plant-based diet.
For us to find a compromise, we’ve been eating and preparing lots of keto vegan recipes so that we don’t have to regularly prepare separate meals.
Finding vegetarian low carb, gluten-free and keto recipes that can become your weekly go-to recipes will make your low carb vegetarian meal planning so much easier.
Whether you’re looking for low carb vegetarian ideas for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, or snacks, we have 30 keto and low carb vegetarian recipes we know you’ll love!
