Cajun Keto Shrimp
Calories: 181 Fat: 9.3g Total Carbs: 1.3g
Net Carbs: 0.7g Fiber: 0.6g Protein: 23.4g
Shrimp is typically high in cholesterol, so we wouldn’t recommend eating it all the time, but if you’re free from heart health issues, indulging in a delicious shrimp dish like this one is fine! Savor the shrimp’s Cajun spices along with keto mashed cauliflower or rice for a complete meal pairing.
