I find that people have very strong feelings about chili and whether or not it should include beans. For example, my husband and my kids are not so fond of beans in their chili. If you’re eating a low carb diet, you should probably skip the beans because they’re loaded with carbs.

When it comes to Chili Recipes, I’ve always been a “beans in my chili recipe” type girl, but since I’m trying to stick to my lower-carb/keto eating plan right now, I need a low carb chili recipe option!

To make one pot keto chili

To make this on the stove start following the directions above – sauté onions and garlic then brown the beef in the pot. Then combine everything and simmer over medium heat for at least 20 minutes before serving. The longer your chili simmers, the better the flavour will be. I recommend one hour or more for the best taste and texture. Add additional broth if too much cooks off during the simmering process.

  1. Corn is NOT a Keto approved food!

      This recipe is: 26 grams of protein, 18 grams of fat, and 8 grams of carbohydrates. Keto dieters are allowed roughly 30 to 40 grams of carbs per day, so depending on what else you eat in a day, one serving of this chili is fine.
