Plnená Cuketa (bez ryže)
Stuffed Zucchini (Rice-Free)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no rice in the stuffing. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Zucchini halves hollowed out and filled with a savory mixture of seasoned ground meat, often baked in a light tomato sauce. This is a keto adaptation of traditional stuffed vegetables which often include rice.
Key ingredients
Zucchini, ground pork/beef, onions, garlic, paprika, salt, pepper, tomato puree (unsweetened), cooking oil.
How to make it keto
