Keto Shrimp Creole is my healthy spin on a classic Southern dish. Here are all the reasons you need to try it.

First, it’s SO tasty, savory, and comforting. The recipe is easy and relatively quick.

In a pinch, I will leave out the fresh peppers and celery; that way, I can make it with the ingredients I already have on hand in my pantry and freezer. Honestly, we still love the stripped-down version!

When fully dressed up with all the fresh veggies, it is “fancy” enough for guests and complete with a salad or a side vegetable. Everyone will love the rich bold flavors!

I like to keep bags of cauliflower rice in my freezer. It’s a great base for dishes and healthier than white rice.

You can make it yourself with fresh cauliflower, buy it freshly premade, or go with white rice.

You can purchase a store-bought Creole or Cajun spice to use in this recipe or make your own, thanks to Emeril Lagasse.

His recipe is a perfect punch of Creole flavors. Find it here.
