Greens, meat, and high-fat dressing — the quick and easy keto trinity that’ll help you meet your needs for vitamins, minerals, fiber, fat, and protein in one low-carb meal. Finding a healthy and tasty keto salad dressing, however, can get tricky when you venture beyond olive oil and vinegar. Most of the popular dressings will either be high in sugar or packed with inflammatory oils (and sometimes both). Even dressings that seem keto-friendly may still contain unhealthy ingredients.

Our Top 10 Keto Friendly Salads
November 9, 2019 by Leave a Comment
The most delicious and healthy way to get more veggies in your diet is with a keto salad recipe. But why must we have the distinction of "keto salad"? Aren't all salads — with their leafy green and oily dressings — low-carb and keto-friendly anyway? Not necessarily. Many popular salads come with sugary dressings, bread, and croutons that turn one of the healthiest meals you can consume into a delivery mechanism for more carbs and unhealthy ingredients. Fortunately, your salad doesn't have ...

Fiesta Slaw with Avocado Lime Dressing
July 27, 2017 by 1 Comment
Whether its barbecue or snow season, coleslaw is always a staple for an easy salad or side item. Traditional coleslaw is made with sugar, vinegar, and loads of veggies. Though it could be fairly low in calories, it could also pack a whopping 20 or more carbs per ½ cup serving! This fresh low-carb take on a family favorite combines the powerful flavors of cilantro, avocado oil, and lime with a hearty, fiber-packed cabbage mix. The dressing is a variation of homemade mayonnaise using a ...

Zesty Keto Italian Dressing
December 7, 2013 by 3 Comments
This recipe is very similar to my honey vinaigrette recipe. In fact, I just add the herb mix that I keep on hand to the honey vinaigrette if I already have that keto salad dressing made. Also, like the honey vinaigrette, this recipe develops its flavor over time. For this reason, I recommend you make it a day or two in advance. But like all of the recipes in our condiment section, it's still delicious even without waiting! I figure if I'm going to get all of those herbs out, I might as well ...

This halloumi cheese salad with mint dressing is great for vegetarians, cheese lovers, and anyone craving a little something Greek.

Keto 5 Minute Caesar Dressing
March 25, 2015 by 25 Comments
I frequently get asked the question "How do I eat more fat?" While in a perfect world, you can eat globs of coconut oil off a spoon, it's just not that attractive of an offer to most ketoers out there. Instead, you can create a keto salad dressing, pack it on top of a salad full of greens (micronutrient filled), and enjoy to your hearts content! Instead of worrying about how many carbs a dressing has, or which to choose from - you could make your own in just about the same amount of time. ...

Keto Reuben Cabbage Rolls
August 22, 2019 by 2 Comments
Do you love Reuben sandwiches? I love this adult version of grilled cheese. The classic Reuben piles meat, Swiss, sauerkraut, and dressing between slices of grilled rye bread. For simplicity, we replace the bread with cabbage rolls and turn the whole thing into a delicious casserole. We included a recipe for Thousand Island dressing, but if you have a premade dressing that you like better then feel free to use it. Just make sure that it’s sugar-free because many of them have added sugar. ...

Crispy Brussel Sprout Salad with Lemon Dressing
November 5, 2020 by Leave a Comment
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 ...
