Keto Cauliflower Chicken Nachos are a delicious, low-carb substitute for the popular “sports bar” dish. The main ingredient swap is roasting cauliflower in place of the high-carb tortilla chips. The flavor will surprise you.
Joanie’s recipe is fantastic and quite healthy. The garnishes are standard for nachos. However, you may always try a few Keto Tortilla Chips if you still enjoy the crunch of tortilla chips.

The centerpiece of this cuisine is cauliflower. There are numerous cauliflower nacho recipes on the Internet. In fact, there are several dishes in the Keto community that use cauliflower as their preferred low carb ingredient.

What distinguishes a nacho recipe are the toppings. You will be alright as long as you avoid the beans, tortilla chips, and other high-carb toppings.
Here in the Southwest, avocados are simple to acquire at moderate prices, and Joanie enjoys eating them on nachos. So they are essential. A lot is added by tomatoes.
