Keto Zucchini and Sausage - Easy Skillet Recipe - Stylish Cravings (2024)

This keto zucchini and sausage recipe is easy to make in a skillet. It’s perfect for both breakfast and lunch – only 5g net carbs per serving.

Is Zucchini Keto

Yes, zucchini is a keto-friendly vegetable. In fact, it is one of the best types of vegetables you can eat on a low-carb diet because it is so low in carbs and high in fiber. There are just 3g net carbs in a medium zucchini. This is why you will find so many low-carb recipes that use zucchini.

Garlic Butter Sausage

I love the combination of garlic and butter. It’s perfect on so many recipes – and this is no different. In fact, I enhanced the garlic butter flavor with some Worcestershire sauce and onion powder. The result is so tasty – and the aroma as you cook will have your mouth watering.

Sausage And Veggie Skillet Dinner

This is a fantastic recipe that you can make as a dinner for just yourself or your entire family. I like to save leftovers and heat it up for breakfast. It fuels my body and gives me the energy to start my day out right. I’m a big fan of skillet breakfasts – this keto breakfast skillet is one of my favorites.

There are lots of ways to serve this recipe. My favorite is to add some cauliflower rice on the side (like my Garlic Butter Cauliflower Rice). You could also serve it with some Palmini noodles for dinner.

If you want to eat it for breakfast, add a fried egg on top. The options are endless!

Easy Meal Prep Recipes

This recipe is perfect for your meal prep. All you do is cook everything in the skillet, and then let it cool down. Store it in an airtight meal prep container and keep it in the refrigerator.

It will stay fresh for up to 3 days. After about 3 days, the zucchini will start to become really soft and won’t be as inviting.

What To Use Zucchini For

One of my all-time favorite zucchini recipes is my Keto Zucchini Taco Lasagna. It has all the classic taco flavors and texture with zucchini used in place of lasagna noodles!

If you have a spiralizer, make some low-carb Cajun shrimp zoodles alfredo. It’s so cheesy with the perfect amount of spice. Or use your slow cooker to make some zoodles with meat sauce. It tastes just like spaghetti.

Low-Carb Sausage Skillet Dinner

There are lots of ways that you can customize this recipe, so have fun changing things and making it your own. You don’t have to use pork sausage. Change it up and use any type of ground meat – ground chicken, beef, or turkey will all taste great.

If you want a meatless version, just add your favorite low-carb veggies to the skillet instead. Mushrooms, yellow squash, and some broccoli would be the best choices.

Toppings really elevate a recipe and make it taste even better, don’t you think? Try adding any of these optional toppings:

• Feta Cheese
• Goat Cheese
• Red Pepper Flakes (my go-to for heat)
• Sauteed Mushrooms
• Bacon Sprinkles
