I enjoy a good salad, but sometimes I don't feel like having lettuce, spinach, or a spring mix as the base. I like the crunch of lettuce and the taste of spinach, but I wanted to try something new. Brussels sprouts turn out to be the perfect base for this salad. Yes, you can eat Brussels sprouts raw and they taste very good this way! On top of this salad is a delicious pecan and seed medley. The pecans, pumpkin and sunflower seeds are fried in a spicy and tangy chili paste alongside cumin ...

Keto BLT Salad
Bacon, lettuce and tomatoes - three things that are delicious in a sandwich! Today, we are deconstructing it into a salad with a nice mayonnaise-based garlic dressing. It can’t get any better than this. Now, you don’t have to use iceberg lettuce for this recipe. In fact, most BLT’s come with romaine, but using iceberg lettuce gives it a nice crisp and crunch. The dressing can be altered as well - add some hot sauce for a big kick or a tiny bit of powdered sweetener to really bring out the ...

Sesame Salmon Salad
Looking for a delicious, colorful salad to brighten up your dinner? This sesame salmon salad is just the thing. It has all the Asian flavor but doesn’t use soy for those of you who are avoiding it. Instead, I used liquid aminos. You can find it in your local grocery store, usually in the health foods section or it can be easily bought online. I find the taste is incredibly like regular soy sauce and I use it quite often in my cooking. You could also use coconut aminos. If you are ...

A quick and easy shrimp salad that’s perfect for warmer weather. The dill adds a refreshing taste and the crunchy texture of the lettuce works well with the mayonnaise dressing. This delicious salad is stuffed with both fat and protein while having just a few carbs per serving. In this salad, I used Boston lettuce (also known as butterhead or bibb), but romaine would work as well! I would avoid lettuce like iceberg, just because it may be too difficult to eat.

Thousand Island Dressing
Of all of the ketogenic salad dressings I make, this has to be our favorite. I mean, they all taste like our favorite when we're eating them, but if I had to choose one it would be this one. It has that depth the homemade mayonnaise and ketchup gives it, that subtle sweetness from the stevia, that tiny crunch of pickle and onion, and somewhere in the background a hint of tartness from the apple cider vinegar that all combines to put it over the top. I really hope you'll give this dressing a ...

Simple Radish Salad
This recipe is an incredibly simple salad that requires no cooking at all! The radish slices provide a nice crunch that goes well with the garlic Parmesan dressing! I used an arugula mix for the lettuce, but you can use any kind of lettuce you’d like. I also used Dijon mustard for the dressing, but if this is something you don’t have, regular mustard will do the trick. I would highly recommend buying a brick or triangle of Parmesan cheese to grate it yourself if possible. Many ...
