This keto gumbo features large, juicy shrimp and spicy andouille sausage in a Cajun-flavored broth. It has lots of kick and just 8g net carbs per serving. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chopped okra until it is no longer slimy. Add the butter to a pot over medium heat and cook the onions, celery and peppers until softened.
The okra is cooked down just long enough for a tender finish. Surprisingly, there’s no roux in this Shrimp and Okra Gumbo, because the okra really gives it the dark color that the roux normally would. Okra, shrimp, and diced tomatoes make this Cajun favorite delicious and quite healthy, too.
