When you follow a keto diet, bread is not allowed since it contains a high amount of carbs. But you can switch that bread for cauliflower and make it even healthier. Yes, you read that correctly.
With melted cheese, these Keto cauliflower grilled cheese sandwiches look like something you’d never say it’s keto-friendly. Instead of buying keto bread, you can make your own using cauliflower.
For these sandwiches, you need cauliflower, eggs, and cheese. Cauliflower is a magical ingredient. It has become popular since it is taking part in bakery products, like bread, sandwiches or breadsticks.
Cauliflower is low in calories with a high percentage of minerals and vitamins. It contains calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium. A diet rich in vegetables has positive implications for human health.
Veggies make a meal completely when they are combined with meat. They provide better absorption of the nutrients, like vitamin C that is connected with iron absorption from meat.
These Keto sandwiches are also one more suggestion on how to eat more veggies and still enjoy the food you eat.
If you have problems with your kids who don’t like veggies, then you already know there is going to work well for you. They would never assume those bread are not something you can buy in the bakery.
We made these sandwiches in a non-stick frying pan. You can also make them on parchment paper and bake in the oven until golden for 10-15 minutes.
Feel free to experiment with cheeses. Add more vegetables or flavorings to make the mixture more interesting. These sandwiches are so yummy! You have to try them!
How to
Grate a cauliflower over a medium-size mixing bowl.
Add salt over the cauliflower and mix it with a spoon. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, pour the cauliflower rice into a clean kitchen towel. Wring the water out. Try to remove as much water as you can.
Grate the gouda cheese in the same bowl. Add oregano and mix until both gouda and cauliflower rice are well combined.
Add two eggs and flavorings and mix again.
Add two eggs and flavorings and mix again.
Heat coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Using a spoon, make two bread slices like in the picture. Two spoons make one bread slice. Cook for 7-10 minutes, each side. Make sure not to overbake.
Add melted cheese on one bread slice then cover with the second. Let the cheese melt in the pan for a couple of minutes.
You can add more cheese on top or just serve them with tomato sauce. Enjoy!
