10 Keto Vegetarian Recipes for Plant-Based Eaters

Fat and protein from animal products are typically a mainstay on a ketogenic diet, that doesn't mean you can't be a vegetarian and still reach ketosis. Low-carb and keto don't always mean eating a carnivore-focused diet...we offer plenty of vegetarian (and vegan) choices which are enjoyed by veterans to this diet. Whether you're a full-time vegetarian, not in the mood for a meat-filled dish, or just somewhere in between (meatless Monday!), these are some excellent vegetarian keto recipes for you and your family to enjoy.

If you learn more on the vegan spectrum and avoid dairy, these recipes may not be for you, but we have a full Vegan Keto guide on the channel that should help out! Though some of these recipes will be completely vegan, there are some basics you should learn about before delving in since the protein sources can be quite scarce.

Looking for a specific recipe from the list? Here's a link to each of the recipes in order. Remember, you can visit the links below for a full nutrition breakdown of each recipe:

Rather than use fake meat, I find blending mushrooms, carrots, celery, and walnuts/cashews together does the trick. 😊

Tried both the 5-Ingredient Cauliflower Hash Browns and the Creamy Cabbage Casserole. The caulihash is really nice for a breakfast filler, I tried with frozen caulirice and their grated techniqie, steamed cauli adds smoothness, while raw adds texture!
For the cabbage caserole, it is very dairy heavy, so I would rather eat it along with more vegetables inside as a cheesy veggie casserole dish just heavy on cabbage ❤
Thank you for the recipes!

Thank you! I'm thinking of trying keto/pescatarian next year, but trying some vegetarian based meals currently to ease myself into it. These are some awesome recipes!

[RoRo-veggielvr]

So glad I found this video. I can't wait to try the recipes especially the chili. Please keep up the great work and share more.

[raggargaming]

A little tip for the maker of the video - add 'keto vegetarian meals' and 'keto vegetarian diet' to you search words, I didn't find this video until I wrote in 'keto vegetarian recipes'. Hope this helps

Vegetarian diets can resort to pasta and carb galore. This challenges me to eat better! Thank you for all of these exciting recipes! Will try this week!

[MatriarchWellness]

[kenyawalker]

Wow, where can I find more Keto vegetarian dishes? The chili recipe is my favorite.

[EL-be_real]

Thank you for posting. All these recipes look good. It would have been nice to see how many net carbs per serving for each of the recipes.

[jeannejjesse]

Thank you, great ideas, very inspiring !

[dianasimms]

They look fantastic. I’m making zucchini recipe this afternoon.

[felicity]

Amazing recipes! Thank you so much xxx

[JRoseBooks]

These look like great vegetarian recipes! Although some have way too many carbs! I saw in a comment they're aiming for 10g carbs per serving, which could be fine for some people. Just make sure it fits in with your ~10% carb intake. I know for me, I can only have about 5-6 carbs per meal to stay in ketosis. That's pretty much all taken up by low-carb veggies.

Looks great! Imma make the cabbage casserole
