Ideas for keto lunch guest

[thirdistheonewiththehairychest]

Hi.

We have someone coming over for lunch tomorrow who has a keto diet. Any ideas what I can do, considering that 2 of us are also allergic to dairy? I have no idea about keto... !

Thank you helpful mumsnetters!

oooh tricky. I used to be keto (just plain low carb now).

Olives, sliced meats, cheeses, some pre-pared mini egg ''pancakes'' to spread the cheese etc on to.

I know that cheese is dairy but people could take or leave what they're allowed to eat/allergic to!

Steak and blue cheese (for non dairy avoiders) salad
Lemon, garlic and herb salmon fillets with green veg

Any meat or fish with green leafy veg rather than root veg.

Chicken or salmon salad? And you could put root veg and croutons on the side for non keto options

Good job it’s not me. I’m a keto eater that doesn’t eat meat.

Hummus, veggie sticks, hard boiled eggs, good mayo, salad, good (no sugar) coleslaw, homemade seed crackers (very easy to make!), soup made without potatoes/root veg (maybe a broccoli one that uses coconut milk so would work for everyone?). Coconut based curry with cauliflower rice.

Roast a chicken, do a nice green salad with avocado and plenty of olive oil, mayonnaise, plus some sort of potato or rice for the non-keto people.
