While this meal takes a little chopping, it is well worth it.  Instead of egg rolls you can serve with some “a little more than” soft boiled eggs on the side.  We also served it with a non keto steamed leek bun.  You can also add peanuts for extra crunch and flavor. chow mein mine 1

Keto Chicken Chow Mein
We received bean sprouts in our organic share package this week so instead of making egg foo young (a standard with bean sprouts) I decided to try my hand at a Keto Chow Mein. An easy stir fry and you won't miss the noodles because the bean sprouts add the crunch. Totally Keto and totally delicious. Best to have a good knife and a food processor for this one.

  3. Heat a wok or a large skillet over high heat. Add some peanut oil and heat until very hot. Add the chicken and stir-fry until lightly browned, about 5 to 7 minutes Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
