Just because you’re vegan does not mean you cannot follow the keto diet or any other low carb diet. As a matter of fact, there are lots of delicious vegan keto recipes out there and one of them is this Keto Cauliflower Makani Bites. Nothing stopping you having this as a side dish with any meal. It’s delicious, spicy, and crispy. Above all, it’s quick and easy to prepare! So below is the recipe and video from the amazing Sahil Makhija of Headbanger’s Kitchen. He says it’s his vegan version of butter chicken.
As usual I’ve tweaked it a bit to make it even more healthy. I’ve changed the olive oil for avocado oil because the health experts say that you should not heat olive oil as it’s health benefits are destroyed. I would use coconut oil or avocado oil instead which you can heat without causing any damage. I also recommend Himalayan salt as most of the sea salt these days contains plastic fibers. You don’t want those in your meal now do you?
