Mediterranean Keto Ground Beef Stir Fry
The Mediterranean Keto diet is a flavorsome combination of healthy Mediterranean foods that are Keto-friendly at the same time. This fantastic beef stir-fry is a simple yet delicious recipe you can prepare in no time. This dish can be served on its own, but you can also serve the leftovers with some zucchini noodles or over a bowl of mashed cauliflower or broccoli. We suggest adding some olive oil right before serving for some extra flavor. You can also add some sugar-free tomato sauce to the meat and prepare a slightly different and healthier version of Keto-friendly bolognese sauce. The options are endless. Enjoy!
What is the Mediterranean Keto diet?
As mentioned above, the Mediterranean Keto diet uses foods that are typical for the Mediterranean diet but also low-carb and Keto-friendly. This is the perfect combination if you want to eat something different, and healthier.
*How to store the leftovers?
You can store the leftovers in air-tight containers and refrigerate them for a couple of days. Optionally, freeze the leftovers until ready to use.
Can I use another type of meat?
Yes, ground pork or lamb would also be perfect for this recipe. You can also combine some ground pork with the beef.

The way this recipe is written it seemed like it might be a little bland. So I added garlic powder, kalamata olives, and some Italian seasoning. It was really easy and quick to cook. I weighed the whole recipe after it was cooked, and it came out to 20 ounces. So I divided it up into 4 servings of 5 ounces each. That didn’t seem like very much food, but it really filled me up. I will probably make this again.

I would make again. Pretty straight forward/easy and satisfying. My only caution would be taste your feta first. I have very tasty local farm feta (Maplebrook farm in VT) but dish was way over salted because it’s a very salty feta. Next time I make I won’t add any salt to dish beside feta. I did use pork not ground beef.

Added heart of palm noodles and used ground venison for an even leaner meal; was delicious!

This was a tasty recipe. I will definitely make it again! Quick and easy!

Simple and tasty enough, especially with a few mods. I swapped white onion for red, add a good splash of Worcestershire sauce and pasta for the carb peeps. The feta gives it the real kicker so add more if you like!

Whole family enjoyed. Served over bowtie pasta for the kids.

I like everything except the oscillates, natural defense chemicals, found in the spinach.

That is more effort than I usually put into cooking dinner, but this one looks like it might be worth it. It’s only 1/4 pound of meat/serving - not enough for me, but doubling the portion size is still only 9 carbs. I’m going to give this a try.

You could also try putting it over a base you enjoy. Lettuce? Riced cauliflower, or broccoli? Maybe a different veggie? Fried cabbage would work here, too.

This recipe was very easy. I added mushrooms. Next time I’ll add another cup of spinach, maybe two and tomatoes. Tasty and will try it again.

I swapped chives to oregano. Also added olives & cherry tomatoes as someone suggested. Made pasta for hubby with it. Delicious!

Would this freeze well for meal prep? If not, how long does it keep in the fridge? TY!
AmazingKale652708 2 years ago
Super easy and delicious. I add olives and tomatoes if I have them on hand, sundries tomatoes would be delish! Although it's not keto it goes really well with cous cous. I make this once a week 😅🤣
