Fill the grain void
A vegetarian diet is typically naturally rich in grain foods like rice, oats, quinoa, pasta, and bread. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, but it just doesn’t jibe with a keto diet. However, if you’re used to eating a grain-heavy diet (plant-based or not), including some close substitutes can make sticking to a low carb diet much easier.
