gramsKeto Chow recently released a new flavor created by yours truly – baked potato. I designed this flavor to be used in any recipe where you’re trying to achieve the flavor of potatoes while keeping your carbs low. While this recipe doesn’t quite nail the starchy texture of real bits of potato, the flavor is spot on.
Ingredients
1 medium turnip, peeled and diced (280g)
1 cup water (237mL)
8 oz bottle clam juice (237mL)
2 TB butter (30g)
4 TB cream cheese (60g) *see note
1 packet Keto Chow Baked Potato
6.5 oz can of chopped clams (185g), drained
1 rib celery, chopped
3 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
1/2 tsp minced garlic (or 1 clove minced)
salt and pepper to taste
- Optional
1/4 tsp xanthan gum
Directions
- Boil the turnip pieces until soft and a toothpick will easily slide into them, roughly 15 minutes. Drain the turnips and set aside.
- In a medium sauce pan, combine water, clam juice, butter and cream cheese over medium heat until butter has completely melted and cream cheese has mostly melted.
- Add the Keto Chow and blend with an immersion blender. If you want really thick clam chowder, you an also blend in 1/4 tsp of xanthan gum.
- Add half of the cooked turnips and blend in.
- Add the remaining turnips, chopped clams, celery bacon and garlic and cook for 5-10 minutes.
- Salt and pepper to taste.

Notes
- The reason I classified this recipes as “medium” difficulty is due to the specialty ingredient (Keto Chow) and because I know not everyone has an immersion blender.
- In any recipes where I use cream cheese, I always use the Philadelphia brand.
Any chance you can include a sodium estimate with the recipes
Love the new Keto Chow flavor and this recipe. We watch your YouTube channel all the time. Keep it coming!
This is a great recipe! I didn’t discard the broth from the canned clams, I added it to my chowder. The leftovers were even better the next day. I will be making this again.
Thanks, Steve!
I made this recipe and loved it. However, I do not know where I can buy more of the baked potato keto chow. I keep checking Keto Chow site, but they haven’t had any for several months. Can you advise me?
It is back in stock on the Keto Chow website.
