Chickpeas as part of a keto diet
A 1 cup (164 g) serving of chickpeas contains 32.5 g net carbs, equal to 162% of a 20 g keto day.
By itself, one serving of chickpeas exceeds an entire 20 g keto day, which makes it hard to fit.
In that serving, protein is 14.5 g, fat is 4.2 g, and calories are 269 kcal.
Subtracting 12.5 g of fiber from the 45 g of total carbs gives the net carbs in chickpeas.
Chickpeas contain more carbs, so try hummus: each 1 tbsp (15 g) has 1.4 g net carbs.
