Keto “Fake” Stuffed Potato

Now hear me out….. You can really use cauliflower in place of a baked potato. I know this as I’ve been doing it for 3 years now on keto. This actually is better than having a potato, minus all the carbs. You can literally put whatever you want on this thing. This is just a quick reference to what I do since I get asked all the time about my faux potato!

Ingredients:

  • 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • Grass fed Butter (ok, it’s optional but you’re crazy if you don’t want butter! )
  • Any topping of choice
    • Sour cream
    • Bacon crumbles
    • Sugar free BBQ sauce
    • Guacamole
    • Natural shredded cheese
    • Onions
    • Pickles
    • Jalepeno
  • Protien of choice
    • I smoke meat and vacuum seal for fake potato night!
    • This is pulled pork and chopped brisket

Instructions:

Take your cut up cauli and place in a large microwave safe bowl. Cover with saran wrap. Do not put any water, seasoning or oil. The cauliflower will steam itself inside the bowl covered. Microwave for 8 minutes. If it’s not tender enough for you, microwave some more in 1 minute incriminates. Use extreem caution removing the siran wrap, the steam will burn you!

Add cauli to your plate, add your butter and allow to melt.

Start pilling on the toppings you like. Finish off with a little salt and pepper. Plate and enjoy! This is probably one of the most simple, tasty, easy recipes you will find! Enjoy

Keto Baked Potato (Fake Potato)

Do you miss having a baked potato? I did, all of the time. Well, not anymore. This Keto Fake-Potato will meet any need you have and tastes just like you’re eating a baked potato. You can simply add whatever Keto ingredients you want to dress your fake-potato. Tonight, we re-purposed our Keto coconut air fried shrimp from 2 nights ago. Did I mention that this is low calorie as well? What you see on my plate is 565 calories!!

As pictured ingredients:

Cauliflower pearls or florets – 1 cup; 2 tbs grass fed butter; 2 tbs Daisy sour cream; 2 tbs bacon crumbles; 2 tbs Tillamook natural shredded cheese; 8 Keto coconut air fried shrimp (see previous post on Keto Coconut Air Fried Shrimp)

Instructions:

Boil/steam your cauliflower. If you use whole florets, I like to use the microwave for 8 minutes, in a bowl, covered in saran wrap. Perfectly tender every time. In this instance, we used the pearls and cooked them stove-top. Once tender, drain any water and plate. Add the amount of butter you want to use, bacon crumbles, sour cream, shredded cheese, and shrimp (or any protein, or no protein). Add some salt and pepper and enjoy!
