One of my favorite keto snacks, these Goat Cheese Avocado Roll-Ups wrapped in Parma ham, are easy enough for a quick lunch or snack but impressive enough as a dinner party appetizer. If you don’t have goat cheese, try full-fat cream cheese instead.

Here’s why I love eating avocados:

Avocados are ideal for a lchf diet, especially if your net carb intake is less than 20 grams. Although they are relatively high in total carbs, they are very low in net carbs. You can read more about total and net carbs when following a high-fat diet in this post.
They are a fantastic source of magnesium and potassium that will help you beat keto flu. Just add a sprinkle of sea salt and you’ve got the perfect keto-flu remedy.
Finally, they a great source of heart healthy monounsaturated fats and fibre that will help you stay full for longer. They are ideal for healthy ketogenic snacking.

These sound delicious! I'm a bit skeptical of the nutritional info, however. I've read elsewhere that 1TBSP of balsamic vinegar has 3-4 net carbs (can be higher if it's higher quality balsamic).

That is true for some types of balsamic vinegar. You need to use the runny, more sour type of balsamic vinegar, not the thick syrupy balsamic vinegar 😊

Since I don't eat pig in any form whatsoever, I'm going to make these with turkey slices. I would never have thought to put arugula in the rolls, so am glad for that idea. Lettuce is just soooo boring after a while, and I like the slight spiciness of arugula. Looking forward to another new-to-me keto meal 😊
