These Keto Stuffed Mushrooms are bursting with bright Mediterranean flavors from an antipasto feta filling. These are a great low carb appetizer!
These Keto Stuffed Mushrooms are the bomb (do people still say that? I hope I’m not too behind the times). Regardless, pair these babies with a glass of dry red wine and that, ladies and gentlemen, is my version of heaven. The salty tanginess of the feta mixed with the briny olive antipasto is a perfect match, but the grilled portobello cap is an unparalleled serving vessel for the deliciousness.
I don’t know about you, but I know what my favorite part of this recipe is – I really enjoy the mushrooms, I love the feta, but I LOVE the olives.
If you’ve ever watched the TV series How I Met Your Mother you might be familiar with Marshall’s olive theory, in which the best relationships are the ones where only one person likes olives. That’s how Lauren and I began our relationship, I hated olives… seriously couldn’t stand them, and she loved them. However, as time has gone by they have become one of my favorite foods. I eat them straight out of the jar or cover salads, pizza, or taco bowls in olives. I guess since my tastebuds have evolved that makes us the exception to the olive theory.
Are mushrooms keto?
Yes! Mushrooms are super healthy and inherently low-carb. Portobello mushrooms have 2.2g of net carbs per 100 grams. Mushrooms are packed with essential vitamins and minerals, especially potassium which is something most people (keto-dieters or not) are deficient in.
