Originally a breakfast dish from the Middle East, Shakshuka is a wonderful, versatile dish that works at any time of the day. And isn’t that name pure magic? Makes you just want to sing and dance.
Vegetarian keto hit
Shakshuka is wonderful for a Sunday breakfast or lunch – it’s also delicious cold, so you can bring it to work as well. And in this version, with Go-Keto Bread, it’s a guaranteed hit as a vegetarian keto dish for dinner – a satisfying, warming meal that will have you scraping your plate for the very last bits. It’s also great to serve in a mixed company of ketonians and ‘others’.
Shakshuka adventure
Another really nice thing about Shakshuka is that it allows for so much variety! You can add all sorts of nice ingredients, from olives, capers and pine kernels to spinach and feta cheese, and you can top the dish with all sorts of fresh herbs like dill, cilantro and thyme. Just make sure to stay within your macros, and you can make an adventure of every time you prepare your keto shakshuka!
Tip: allow the bread a night’s rest
Make sure to bake the keto bread the evening before. Then the actual preparation of the Shakshuka will take you very little time, and the Go-Keto Bread will be all the better for having rested a while!
