Keto Creamy Sauerkraut with Chives
Sauerkraut is a delicious side dish that you can enjoy liberally on the Keto or Low Carb diet, and adding sour cream and chives is an easy way to spruce up ordinary sauerkraut! The sour cream adds a nice creaminess and healthy fats. For those enjoying a higher calorie Low Carb diet, the sour cream adds a nice amount of calories (feel free to add more sour cream)! The side dish can be made ahead of time and enjoyed for several days in a row.
Can I use another herb?
Yes! Feel free to use other herbs like parsley, but chives are the most suitable for this dish. Feel free to skip the herbs entirely too.
What kind of sauerkraut to use?
Look for a high-quality brand that is naturally fermented. Naturally fermented sauerkraut will only have salt and cabbage listed on the ingredient list.
How long does this keep in the fridge?
Adding the sour cream to the sauerkraut will lower the shelf life of the sauerkraut itself, but it will still last in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
Serving suggestion
Serve alongside a delicious Pot Roast like this Low Carb Classic Pot Roast. You can remove the carrots to keep the dish lower in net carbs if you wish.
