Keto Ranch Grilled Halloumi Recipe

Crispy, gooey, melty, ranch-y halloumi served with an extra glug of ranch dressing - yes please!

The perfect lunch, brunch or Keto friendly snack

Halloumi is a Cypriot cheese usually made with a mixture of sheep's and goat's milk.

It comes in a block which is relatively bland and flavourless, but given some high heat on a griddle pan it quickly transforms into rich, tasty cheese that's crispy on the outside and melting in the middle.

Halloumi is Low Carb and High Fat, with this recipe providing 14.1g fat and just 0.5g carbs per serving. So it's perfect to enjoy as part of your Keto, low carb or healthier lifestyle.

Enjoy as it is for a super satisfying lunch, brunch or snack - or serve up as a side dish to accompany your favourite mains.

Hunter & Gather Avocado Oil Ranch Dressing

Our Ranch Dressing is made with 100% avocado oil and no inflammatory veg or seed oils.

Avocado oil is an amazing healthy fat that provides a rich source of monounsaturated fats such as oleic acid.

It also tastes amazing, especially when made into a delicious dressing with all natural ingredients.

Marinate your halloumi in our ready to use ranch dressing and prepare for it to soak up all of that amazing flavour.

Here's the recipe.
