Are Nightshade Vegetables Low Carb?

Nightshades are a group of vegetables and spices, which include potatoes, eggplants, tomatoes, bell peppers and pepper-based spices. With the exception of potato, nightshade vegetables and spices can be enjoyed on occasion as part of a healthy, balanced Keto diet. Nightshades do, however, sit at the higher end of the low carb vegetable scale, so consumption should be accordingly in line with your individual carb allowance.

Serving Suggestions

This one-pan Keto dinner is perfect served with some low carb Mediterranean-inspired sides. The chicken and vegetables would be delicious with a light side salad or steamed green vegetables.

    Nestle the chicken thighs in amongst the vegetables. Sprinkle over the garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Drizzle over the olive oil. Transfer the tray to the oven to roast for 35 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through. The chicken should be completely cooked through and the skin golden.
