Is Rutabaga Keto?
Rutabaga is at the higher end of the carb table when it comes to Keto-friendly vegetables but may be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced Keto diet. It is a great alternative to potato and is a good lower carb root vegetable option. Rutabaga can be a great option if you are on a low carb diet and have flexibility for a slightly higher carb range. If you would like to keep the carbs lower in this recipe, you could try swapping the rutabaga for diced radishes. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.
Serving Suggestions
This Keto sausage stew makes a deliciously warming low carb dinner option. You can serve the stew over cauliflower rice for a fuller meal or with a hearty low carb side salad. Alternatively, the stew would be great served with some toasted slices of Keto bread for mopping up the sauce.
