Keto Low Carb Sandwich Lunchbox
Keto Lunchbox Idea
A lot of people these days are hopping on the low-carb bandwagon. And that means when lunchtime rolls around, a lot of people are eating salad. Don’t get me wrong, I like a nice salad for lunch myself – but salad every single day can start to get a bit old.
But if you’re trying to bring a packed lunch to work, what’s the alternative? You can’t make a sandwich without bread, can you?
Actually, you kind of can – if you turn it inside out. Instead of a filling of cold cuts, cheese, and veggies between two pieces of bread, flip it around and put those cold cuts on the outside.

To see how this works, take a look at these Keto Low Carb Sandwich Lunchbox. They’ve got layers of ham, Genoa salami, pepperoni, and provolone, wrapped around a filling of lettuce, peppers, and mayo. Basically, a complete Italian sandwich, without the bread.
All you need to round out this low-carb meal is a few olives and some apple slices. Okay, those have a little bit of carbs in them, but they keep the doctor away.

Hey the first recipe includes peppers but the printable doesn’t?
Hi Stephanie. Those are optional and are added to taste. Some people prefer not to have them. I added a note to the printable to clarify. I hope you love them!
I was surprise how much I enjoyed it ! Have been yearning for a sandwich….this fits the bill ! Thank you for sharing.
So happy you enjoyed it Penny!
Apples are not keto
You are correct Amanda 🙂 This is for a Keto Low Carb sandwich. The sides you choose are totally up to you 🙂
The nutritional fact are per serving and how many servings are in this recipe?
TIA
Per lunchbox.
Have you had your blood pressure and your cholesterol checked lately? Years ago, there was something called the Adkins Diet, which was basically similar to Keto. Well, Dr. Adkins (who invented that diet) actually died of a sudden massive coronary. Anyone with ANY common sense at all, knows that excessive amounts of fat & sodium are not good for you, since they lead to heart issues. I believe that a word to the wise is sufficient (or perhaps not).
Hi Angelina!
I totally get it if this sandwich idea isn’t for you. I certainly don’t suggest anyone eat this everyday for lunch, it’s meant as an idea for some thing new to pack for lunch.
There is alllllways that ONE person who wants to rain on everyone’s parade! Kudos to you for handling yourself with such grace when responding to bozo! And thanks for the receipe!
I like quick lunch ideas like this!
Actually science and research shows that the high levels of fat on this diet are not harmful if done right. Anyone on this diet should do research first so as not to fail. Eating monounsaturated fats and omega 3s are very healthy for you.
As for the sodium issue, going low carb also gives you an insulin dump which could cause a sodium deficiency. So anyone on this diet SHOULD take on more sodium.
As with any diet, yes it could be harmful if done wrong. But, anyone with ANY common sense would do their research before diving in to anything like this.
Angelina, the keto diet is very different than the Adkins diet. I went full keto for six months, lost 70 lbs, I no longer have a fatty liver, I am no longer pre-diabetic and my cholesterol and other blood works are better than they’ve ever been. Please do some research instead of spreading ignorant hate about the keto lifestyle.
Actually Dr. Atkins DID NOT die of a sudden massive heart attack. At the age of 72 he slipped on an icy street in New York outside his office and suffered a head injury he never recovered from. Get your facts straight.
Dr. Robert Atkins died from accidentally falling on ice and hitting his head that left him comatose. You may want to actually do some research before you make rude comments and also learn how to correctly spell “Atkins”.
Thanks for this post, the listed nutritional information, does that include the apples in the picture? I’m assuming yes, just curious, thank you
