Homemade Low Carb Ketchup

Homemade Low Carb Ketchup Recipe

Admit it – ketchup is one of your favorite condiments. But it gets less and less satisfying to eat the more you realize how much high fructose corn syrup and other added ingredients are in store-bought ketchup. Don’t feel guilty about your love for ketchup any longer, this Homemade Low Carb Ketchup recipe will change the way you view this condiment.

Homemade Low Carb Ketchup flavor really depends on the type and amount of spices that you add to it. Feel free to keep it simple or add in your own favorite spices! I’ve found that my favorite combination of flavors are curry and garlic, which is why I have created this particular flavor.
