About this category

Salad is one of the easiest things to make keto, but the dressing is where carbs often slip in. Store-bought dressings frequently contain sugar or starch, so these recipes stick to oil, vinegar, mustard, cream or mayonnaise. Coleslaw is a good example: the classic version is sweet, while the keto take gets its balance from vinegar and a sweetener with no usable carbs.

Several salads here are filling enough to be dinner. Broccoli chicken salad with almonds and bacon and Swabian sausage salad with Emmental bring plenty of protein. Caprese with avocado and pine nuts and halloumi zucchini salad with mint lean lighter, and warm pumpkin salad with halloumi and arugula is a nice option for autumn when you want something warm.

To keep salads from going soggy, store dressing separately and add it just before eating. Sturdy vegetables like kohlrabi, cabbage and broccoli hold up well for a packed lunch, while leafy greens are best dressed at the last minute. If you use cherry tomatoes or carrots, keep the amounts moderate, since they carry more carbs than lettuce or cucumber.
