Summer Comfort Foods

BLTs...right!?! I mean who doesn't love those. Although we eat this heavenly ensemble all year long, it is my favorite choice for suppers that don't heat up the house, iykyk. Now this particular meal is a bit higher in carbs than my usual choice. That is why I planned ahead and made sure I stayed plenty active today, and bought myself some wiggle room. It's as simple as doing chores that need done anyway. Anyhow, enjoy this tasty treat.

Keto BLT

Walmart Brand Keto Bread 2 slices

1.5 oz (weigh after cooked) Bacon

Lettuce Slices

Tomato Slices

G.Hughes Sugar Free Ketchup

1 Mission Zero Tortilla

1 tbs Cheddar Cheese Powder

First note, these are the brands I used. Use whatever brands you like, just calculate your numbers so you log accurately.

I cooked 2 lbs of bacon using the deep pot method. I then weighed out 1.5 oz for my sandwich, I toasted my bread, and after building my sandwich I used G.Hughes Sugar Free Ketchup. That dude, he knows what's up. I took my Mission Zero Tortilla and cut it into eight triangles. I air-fried them for about 6 minutes. Then tossed them in cheddar cheese powder. We buy our powder at the Amish store, so look at the numbers of your brand. ( check the popcorn section).

13g carbs -344 calories.

Summer comfort foods are essential for warm weather dining, offering fresh, light options that satisfy without overwhelming. The Keto BLT is a fantastic choice as it blends flavor with lower carb count, making it great for those on a ketogenic diet. With just 13g of carbs and only 344 calories, the Keto BLT allows you to enjoy a classic dish while maintaining your dietary goals. Incorporating fresh produce like tomatoes and lettuce, along with crispy bacon and keto-friendly bread, this sandwich not only satiates hunger but also delivers essential nutrients. Pairing it with air-fried tortilla triangles sprinkled with cheddar cheese powder adds a fun crunch and taste without excessive calories. Ideal for summer gatherings or a light dinner, this recipe emphasizes convenience and flavor, ensuring you keep cool and satisfied during the hot months. This versatility makes the Keto BLT a go-to dish alongside other summer favorites!
