Vegan Patty Melt

About

Keto Vegan Patty Melt is a delicious way to enjoy Keto. Meatless ground beef is sauteed in a pan with plenty of healthy olive oil and then is placed on top of fluffy “buttered” Keto bread and melty vegan cheese. Sandwiches are a delicious way to enjoy a Keto Vegan diet!

What kind of meatless substitute should I use?

Use a meatless substitute that is free of eggs and also has a low net carb count. Some meat replacements are very high in carbs.

What kind of bread should I use?

Find a Keto bread that is free of any dairy or eggs to keep it Vegan.

Can I add more fat to this dish?

Yes, since the meat substitute and the cheese substitute can add up in carbs quickly, feel free to saute the meat substitute with additional fat to hit your calorie target.

Suggested Pairing

Pair this melty Keto Vegan sandwich with other Vegan treats like Keto Vegan Brownies:

Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup meatless grounds
1 slice vegan cheese slices
1 ½ tablespoon vegan butter
2 Slice keto bread

Instructions

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add in the olive oil and swirl the pan. Add in the meatless substitute and cook until it is lightly browned. Keep it in the pan to keep it warm.
Preheat a separate large pan over medium-low heat. Make sure it does not get very hot. Spread the vegan butter over one side of each piece of bread and place them buttered side down into the warm pan. Toast until the desired color is achieved.
Turn the pieces of bread up and top with half of the meatless substitute and split one cheese slice between each.
Cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat down to very low to allow the cheese to melt. Place the two pieces of bread together to make a sandwich or eat open-faced.
Serve immediately.
