Vegan Keto Shopping List – Food to Have in your Pantry
You should have some good sources of fat, protein, and some vegetables readily available in your fridge when doing a ketogenic diet.
Good sources of vegan fats:
Coconut, almond/peanut Butter, and avocados are my favourite. (sometimes combined all together)
In Toronto you can find a product call Vegan Magic Bacon Grease, that has all the qualities of bacon grease, just without all the cruelty.
Other Fat Options:
Almond Butter
Almond Oil
Avocado Oil
Canola Oil
Cocoa Butter
Coconut Oil
Flax Seed Oil
Olive Oil
Sesame Oil
Proteins:
Most Tofu is low carb, watch for additives.
Tempeh – Noble Bean has the lowest carb count I’ve seen.
Textured Vegetable Protein – find it at the bulk store. Bob’s Red Mill is usually easy to find in most regular grocery stores, but there are lots of different brands out there.
Protein Powder – I ordered mine from TruNutrition
Baking
You might find a lot of helpful information by looking for gluten-free vegan baking. They’ve got using almond and coconut flour down to an art.

I’ll keep adding to this when I think of things!
what about peas?
No, peas are a starch and therefore high carbohydrate.
What about peanuts?
Peanuts can be eaten with caution as they are not a nut they are legume in the bean family so contain a not insignificant amount of carbohydrate as sugars. Better to have other nuts our nut butters for better results.
Brazil nuts, sauerkraut, olives spinach
No fruit listed, bar avocado.
What about Hemp seed products?
Hello I wondered if you can have Chia seeds and soya yogurt as they are two things I love ❤️ ?

Avocados are fruits

What about nutritional yeast?
Soy curls – just cooked and dehydrated, non GMO soybeans Butler Foods sells them
Onion, garlic, ginger???
