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 ...

Creamy Keto “Potato” Salad
August 17, 2017 by 19 Comments
There are a few foods that I have never been able to bring myself to buy pre-made. Guacamole is one because the amount of work involved is worth the fresh taste. The other is potato salad. Why would I buy a pre-made potato salad that I eventually doctor up by adding more spices, more mustard, and more time when I could have just prepared it myself? Well, in theory anyway. Sure, I hate buying potato salad but nine times out of ten I wouldn’t actually make it either because it is time ...

Tangy Keto Broccoli Salad

What could be better than this tangy broccoli salad with bacon, cheddar cheese, pumpkin seeds, and a tangy dressing? It's a great salad or side dish, but since it requires no cooking, it's also easy to prepare. Most people would never notice that this is low carb, so it's a great recipe to bring when you need something to share! There's some erythritol in the dressing to replace the sugar found in many broccoli salad recipes. If you don't like a sweeter dressing, then feel free to omit ...

Mushrooms & Goat Cheese Salad
April 23, 2020 by Leave a Comment
Wow - this is one amazing salad! The best part is the mushrooms sauteed in butter. It helps keep the lettuce moist and pairs well with the balsamic vinegar dressing and crumbled goat cheese. For this recipe I used a baby greens mix from the store but if you can't find that mixture even just baby kale, spinach, and a little romaine will go a long way with this delicious dish. Alternatively for the cheese, you could also try chunks of brie or feta. Each would taste equally as ...

Avocado Egg Salad
December 20, 2018 by 4 Comments
Half of my family is from the South, so I grew up with egg salad at every family function. Egg salad is great for work lunches, picnics, or even paired with fat head bagels for brunch. I love to put a couple tablespoons on top of some baby spinach or kale. The great thing about egg salad is there’s no one way to make it, either. For this recipe, I used hot sauce to add some spice, but if you want to turn up the heat, you can substitute the hot sauce for jalapeno peppers or scotch ...

Blue Cheese and Bacon Salad
May 17, 2018 by 1 Comment
Oh man - if you’ve never had blue cheese and bacon together then you are in for a real treat. It is very delicious, and a combination that makes this salad one of the best I’ve ever had. Now this recipe is very similar to a Cobb salad, but minus a few ingredients. I would recommend adding some hard boiled eggs to this delicious dish if you want. It gives it a bit more variety, however by itself, this salad is still perfect. Yields 6 servings of Blue Cheese and Bacon Salad The ...

Greek Cauliflower Salad
February 25, 2020 by 5 Comments
I always used to have this whenever I went out to Greek restaurants. It is a nice combination of rice, cucumber, olives, and feta with a side of tzatziki. It tastes amazing! So I tried to keto-fy the recipe using cauliflower rice instead. For this recipe, I used pre-shredded cauliflower. If you can’t find it in stores, you can buy a head of cauliflower and use a knife, food processor, or blender to cut them into rice-sized pieces. This makes a lot of servings. You can always halve the ...
