This simple kale and pumpkin salad is a nutritious and delectable dish, ideal for a plant-based Keto diet. It features wholesome plant-based ingredients such as kale, roasted pumpkin, cherry tomatoes, onions, and walnuts. Complementing this hearty salad is a zesty and refreshing dressing made with vegan mayonnaise. The salad begins with a base of fresh kale massaged with olive oil and salt until softened. This kale is then topped with cherry tomatoes, onion slices, and roasted pumpkin. Roasting the pumpkin enhances its flavor, bringing out its natural sweetness. The salad is finished with heart-healthy walnuts and a creamy vegan dressing that ties all the flavors together. This plant-based Keto recipe is perfect for meal prepping; however, proper storage is crucial. To maintain freshness for up to 4 days, store the marinated kale and vegetables in an airtight container separately from the dressing. When ready to serve, pour the dressing over the vegetables, seal the container, and shake to ensure everything is evenly coated. For a variation, butternut squash or another low-carb squash can replace the roasted pumpkin. Roasted cauliflower or broccoli can also be used for a lower-carb option. Alternatively, for non-vegans, grilled chicken or prawns can be substituted for the pumpkin. These variations provide satisfying Keto salad options. If walnuts are not available, almonds, pecans, or cashews make excellent substitutes. For a nut-free version, sunflower or pumpkin seeds can be used.

If you need a more filling meal, try pairing the stew with the Carb Manager Keto Tomato and Artichoke Salad. The Carb Manager Low Carb Sweet and Crunchy Broccoli and Bacon Salad is another good choice. Low Carb Italian Mozzarella Sticks or Keto Meaty Italian Cucumber rolls are good side dishes as well. For a drink, try the new Carb Manager Keto Spiked Sweet Tea! Crumbly, spicy Italian sausage is a great pizza topping, but some may find it too greasy. To maintain a high-fat content, you ll need a protein with high amounts of fat. Ground beef can be browned in the same way as Italian sausage before being added to your crockpot. If you don want ground meat, try using chicken thighs. You ll need to cook the chicken thighs fully before adding it to the crockpot. Roast the chicken in a pan or boil in water before cubing or shredding the chicken. Then, continue the recipe as normal. If you prefer to not have meat in your stew, adding extra parmesan cheese into your bowl is a clever way to include protein and fat. Make sure to use vegetable broth for a fully vegetarian Keto stew.
