Are mushrooms Keto?
Mushrooms are some of the most Keto-friendly vegetables you can enjoy on a or low-carb diet. Just about any variety of mushrooms is acceptable too. One ounce of mushrooms has about one gram of net carbohydrates, so they’re easy to portion and keep track of on your diet too. Add mushrooms to any dish with vegetables or dice them finely to use as a filler in meats, stews, and other dishes.
Can I use other mushrooms in the recipe?
Most mushrooms share similar amounts of carbs per serving, so you can substitute almost any type of mushroom in this recipe. Brown mushrooms may include cremini or baby bella mushrooms, portobello mushrooms, or other varieties. You could substitute white mushrooms in your gravy if that’s what you have on hand.
Make the Keto mushroom gravy vegetarian
To make the Keto mushroom gravy totally vegetarian, simply swap the chicken broth for vegetable broth. Please note that vegetable broth will have more carbs than chicken broth. Also, check the ingredient list on your vegetable broth. Some broths are made with animal products.

20 min
Step 1
Start by dicing cremini or another brown mushrooms into small pieces. Melt the first amount of butter in a large saute pan over low heat. Add the mushrooms to the butter and stir them to coat. Cover the pan with a lid and cook the mushrooms way down until they’ve tenderized, shrunken, and absorbed most of the butter.Step 2
Melt the second amount of butter in the saute pan on the lowest heat setting. After the butter has melted, stir the tapioca flour into the pan. Stir continually while the butter thickens with the flour, foams up, and begins to turn golden. Then, you can pour chicken broth into the pan.Step 3
Season the pan with salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring the pan to a simmer, then let it bubble over medium heat until the ingredients reduce to a gravy. The gravy is done when it can coat the back of a wooden spoon and some small pieces of mushroom may even stick. Leave the gravy aside to cool down for 5 minutes and thicken before serving.

Anybody know how much xanthan gum I would use to substitute for the tapioca starch? That's all I've got.

As per the opening paragraph... Serve mushroom gravy with pork, chicken, turkey, and even beef. You can toss roasted vegetables in the gravy too. The high-fat content is good for your macros, and it’s a helpful way to add fat to any meal that needs a boost. The high-fat content will also make your meal more filling.
