Read More »Vegetables form a large part of a ketogenic, or keto, diet. The best vegetables for keto diets include celery, tomatoes, spinach, and mushrooms. A person may wish to avoid starchy vegetables, such as beets, potatoes, and sweetcorn. Keto diets restrict the amount of carbohydrates a person can eat.

Eggplant is a nightshade vegetable that many home chefs underuse. Aside from the classic eggplant parmesan, many don't know how to make the most of this shiny, purple vegetable. There are many great ways to get more eggplant into your diet, and if you are part of the low-carb club, the best way is to make eggplant pizzas. Many low-carb dieters assumed pizza, with its doughy crust, was off the table, but it's not, thanks to this purple produce. While there are many different types of eggplants, the two most commonly found in the supermarket are globe eggplant and Japanese eggplant. You will want the larger globe eggplant to make eggplant pizzas, just slice and roast them and add your favorite pizza toppings. Of course, wherever cooking with eggplant, there is always the question: to salt or not? Salting eggplant or sweating is known to remove the moisture and bitterness that plague the purple vegetable. However, some disagree about whether salting is necessary. According to the LA Times, salting eggplant is only required when you want a softer texture or are frying the eggplant, but for grilling and roasting, it isn't necessary. For eggplant pizzas, salting is an easy way to add a chewier texture and remove some moisture that could result in a soggy pizza. Just remember to wipe off the salt before adding your pizza toppings to avoid a salty, mushy pizza.
