Did you ever hear of microwaved salami? My mother in law made this for me many, many years ago and I was surprised at how yummy it was. I tastes a bit like bacon with much less mess.

The other day I was craving Mexican food so I threw together these keto salami tostada bites which were a little like a Mexican tostada you would make with a corn tortilla except I use a pieces of salami.

They were so tasty and only took 5 minutes to make! Best of all each one has only 0.6g net carbs and 3.3g of protein so you can eat a bunch and not feel guilty!

I have made something similar to this with my tomato, avocado and salami cups and with my pepperoni roasted tomato pizza cups. In those recipes I made cups out of the salami and pepperoni and it had to be baked in muffin tins. This recipe is much easier but check out those easy low carb recipes too.

Recipe ingredients and substitutions.

The simple ingredients I used in this keto snack is hard salami, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, fresh jalapenos, lettuce and sour cream. You can of course use any and all of these as the salami is the only mandatory ingredient.

Other things you can try as toppings are diced avocado, guacamole, salsa, crema, sliced black olives, diced onion, chopped green onions, hot sauce, pico de Gallo, and really any thing you would put on a taco.

How to make keto salami tostada bites in 5 minutes.

You can make salami chips by baking them in the oven but I like the microwave because it’s much faster.

Step 1: Just arrange the the slices on a plate or a microwave bacon cooker like this and cook for 1 -2 minutes.

You might have to experiment a few times to get them to your desired crispiness. They can burn quickly so after a minute, cook for 15 second intervals until they are done.

The time may vary depending on the thickness of your salami. I tried it with thick and thin pieces of salami and I liked the thicker ones better. 

Step 2: Now you have your salami tostadas bases, just load them with your favorite toppings. I started with a dollop of sour cream and then topped with what I would usually like on my tacos.

I used full fat sour cream, a finely diced grape tomatoes, shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar, and a thin slice of jalapeño for that Mexican tostada taste. It was delicious and I ate them for my lunch!

You could mix a few spices or even taco seasoning in the sour cream or even add some cilantro and a squeeze of lime! Just add them to your salami base and a serve.

This is a quick snack you can eat in the afternoon or at night. You could also serve them as a keto appetizer. Please scroll down for the printable recipe card.
