Delicious Keto-friendly Ways to Enjoy Deli Meat

On the keto diet? Check out these fun ways to enjoy some keto-friendly deli meat and cheese. Thank you to McKenzie All Natural Artisan Deli  for sponsoring this post.  All views are my own.

Are you trying to eat cleaner this year? Maybe you are on the keto diet? I know our family is trying to eat healthier, but I am the only keto-er here! As a parent, it is my job to make sure my kiddos get the most nutritional bang for their buck.

While I totally still let my kids have occasional treats I have started checking labels more so lately. The past 3 months have really opened my eyes to the harmful junk some brands load into our food.

Would you believe that 2 weeks ago I found cartilage and actual chicken bones in a “cheaper” brand of deli meat? Before I totally swore off the deli completely, I did my research.

I also learned the hard way that paying less does not produce better results. I quickly came to realize that when it comes to deli meats and cheeses I rather pay more for a quality product.

That is why I now will be buying premium deli meats from brands like McKenzie Natural Artisan Deli which is now available at Shaw’s.

I love that my daughter also shares the same name as this company (she spells it differently though), and their vast assortment of foods.

Since Shaw’s is one of my FAVORITE grocery stores I am actually very happy to have the option of such a quality brand at my fingertips.

Yes, McKenzie Natural Artisan Deli is slightly higher cost wise, but the product quality is superb! I recently bought a pound each of their Turkey Breast, Black Angus Roast Beef, and Ham off the Bone. My kids love sandwiches so these 3 lbs of meat would go FAST!

Looking for keto snacks?

These low-carb deli meat lunches or snacks are so easy to prepare too which is a total win in my book.

I can even prep them the night before, put them in an airtight container and have lunch ready for my husband on the go. Sometimes even before the gym, we need a little protein fuel so a roll-up or two is ideal!

Let’s explore these 4 Delicious Keto Friendly Ways to Enjoy Deli Meat

Simply take a slice of deli meat. Add one slice of cheese, and roll it up. These also make perfect additions to any deli meat & cheese tray! This is perfect for those on the Keto diet!

Keto Bunless Romaine Sandwiches

Simply grab two pre-washed romaine leaves, cut them midway and make two “buns”.
