Colcannon is a tasty Irish dish made with potatoes and cabbage. Although it's traditionally served on St. Patrick's Day, it's not limited to special occasions and makes a great side to any roasts and slow cooked meat. It's easy to prepare, budget-friendly and you'll need just a few common ingredients.

In this low-carb colcannon I used cauliflower, spring onions, green cabbage and butter. I also added some crispy bacon for flavour boost but you can skip it if you follow a vegetarian ketogenic diet.

Martina Slajerova Creator of KetoDietApp.com I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight.
