Low Carb Holiday Main Dishes
With the holiday season coming up, my thoughts turn to how I’m going to stay low carb throughout the next few months.
Generally speaking, the main dish option for any holiday meal tends to be pretty well low carb by default.
A turkey... or a ham!
How you treat the turkey or ham influences how low carb it is - or isn’t, obviously.
Keto, Low-Carb Holiday Main Dishes
... That doesn’t mean that you have to stick with plain, butter-basted turkey or ham, though!
I asked a bunch of my fellow food bloggers for their favourite low-carb Thanksgiving and Christmas recipes, and they did not disappoint!
Whole turkeys or turkey breasts, cooked in different ways: InstantPot, Roasted, Air Fried, and Smoked!
Alternate turkey dishes, like wings or meatballs!
Also, the most gorgeous ham I’ve ever seen.
Which will you be serving this holiday season?
