Why it works

The cheapest keto foods are also some of the best board foods: block cheddar and pepper Jack you cube yourself, salami and pepperoni, and hard-boiled eggs, which make the board filling for almost nothing.

Cucumbers, celery and dill pickles supply the crunch and the sour bite, and whole-grain mustard ties it together. Cubing your own cheese is the biggest saving: pre-cut cheese can cost twice as much per ounce.
