With thinly sliced cucumbers or keto pita chips, this rich and flavorful Keto Baba Ganoush (Charred Eggplant Dip) goes great!
We decided we needed a tasty Keto Baba Ganoush to scoop up with our Keto Pita Chips, and man, this one is great.
We’re all about good dips, so to amp up the flavor, we start by broiling the serrano peppers and eggplant until the skin is roasted and the interior is soft. Then, we chop it all up and combine it with tahini, garlic, cumin, lemon, and cayenne pepper.
The end result is a wonderful dip that is rich and ideal for the ketogenic diet. It is ideal for low-carb/high-fat macros because each serving only contains 4.5g net carbs and more than 80% fat.
