Low Carb and Keto Friendly
One of the main reasons we love this TikTok food trend is the various ways you can make your boards. We all know that butter is low carb and keto friendly.
The various other ingredients, are for the most carb find. Though, we do suggest skipping the honey used in some of the featured recipes.
Toast
While the above boards are using carb bread, not our low carb version! Instead of white bread or another carby option – we made keto toast!
Vegetables
Check out our huge list of keto vegetables and find good dipping options for your board. Here are a few ideas to get your brain churning. Consider using sauté cauliflower, grilled zucchini or asparagus, broiled broccoli or charred carrots, yum!
Get creative and enjoy. Basically any vegetable that you would eat with butter could be used.
Meats
Grilled chicken bites or cut-up steak would be divine options! Next time you are at Costco, pickup a pack of the grilled chicken bites in the refrigerated food section.
Tortillas
Did you see our list of low carb tortillas? These keto options are a great bread alternative. Either toast your tortillas or not. Cut into small triangles and dip into the buttery goodness.
