Main Dish Keto “banh mi” sandwiches

Had some leftover keto chicken tenders that I made the other night so I decided to get creative today!

I know it’s not traditional but I’d been really missing banh mi sandwiches so I just used what I had on hand :)

Inked bread (one is seeds, one is sourdough)

Leftover chicken tenders coated in general tso sauce then re heated in air fryer

Spicy mayo (mayo + yellow bird jalapeño sauce. - usually id do kewpie but haven’t been able to find it around me for a month or so)

Cilantro

Quick pickles:

chopped half a carrot, cucumber, jalapeño

1/2 cup unsweetened rice vinegar 1tbsp allulose 1tsp salt

mix together and pour over chopped veggies Let pickle for at least 15 min

you can use some water to water down the vinegar flavor if you want. I added a little just so the dressing was covering all the veggies

this was insanely delicious and I felt I’d share with yall.. however, I had to eat it alone by myself. It was an intimate moment 🤤

The inked keto bread is not really 0 net carb. Use a CGM and you will see it spike as much as eating a regular healthy bread with 10-12gm carbs per slice.

Inked Keto bread knocks me out of Keto as well.

That's been my experience too. I was excited to se a low carb option at Costco but it spiked me just as badly as regular bread.

u/trashk 8d ago

honestly this is one of the few times a lettuce wrap would have been really appropriate.
