Recipes Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes Chili Recipes Pork Chili Recipes Smitty's Low-Carb Chili 4.0 (4) 3 Reviews 2 Photos Finding variety can be brutal when on a low-carb diet! I miss rich stews and soups, particularly hearty and spicy ones, while trying to remain in ketosis. Threw this chili together out of some leftover pork loin and cauliflower rice, and was thrilled with the result. The cauliflower is for texture only - it has little effect on the taste.
