This thick and hearty no bean keto chili is filling and full of delicious chili flavors. Ground beef and sliced smoked sausage are simmered with onion, bell pepper, celery, diced tomatoes, and lots of classic chili seasoning. Fits perfectly on your high protein low carb diet.
October is national chili month but at our house, we eat chili year-round. Why? Because it’s an easy keto dinner that’s full of flavor and ready in 30 minutes, with plenty of leftovers for the next day!
This meaty, chunky chili recipe uses hamburger meat AND sliced smoked sausage! The smoked sausage adds an interesting texture that creates a chunky, hearty bowl of chili. The sausage also adds a delicious hint of smokey flavor that enhances and blends the flavors nicely.
Here in the south, our traditional chili recipes are commonly made with beans (pinto beans or kidney beans). However, beans are not low carb or keto-friendly! Fortunately, this bold and meaty, keto-friendly recipe is low-carb and satisfying, even without the beans, making it the perfect keto chili recipe.
We use a small amount of tomato paste and half the tomatoes that traditional chili recipes use. For an extra spicy kick, use a can of Rotel tomatoes instead of regular canned tomatoes.
This delicious beanless chili recipe makes about 6-8 servings. Each serving contains approximately 3 net carbs, according to the brands used.
