What Makes a Salad Keto-Friendly?

If you just started a low-carb or keto diet, you may be wondering what makes a salad low-carb or keto. What you need to understand about keto is it’s all based on the carb count. There are carbs in almost anything you eat. Some veggies and fruits are higher in carbs than others. This salad uses veggies that have a low carb index. Cucumbers, onion, tomatoes and peppers are great veggies to eat while watching your carb intake.

Make Homemade Greek Vinaigrette Dressing

Making your own dressing is so easy. It’s also a wonderful idea to make your own dressing when you are following a low-carb diet because a lot of store-bought dressings have hidden sugars which make the carb content too high for a keto lifestyle. The dressing I created for this recipe combines items that are low-carb like avocado oil, vinegar, mustard and herbs which give the dressing a zesty taste and compliments the other ingredients in the salad. I hope you love it!

Eat Zesty Keto Greek Feta Salad for Days

One of my favorite things about this yummy salad is that it can be stored in the fridge and eaten for days! The veggies are crunchy and will last in the fridge for a few days. I make a batch on a Monday and I can eat it for lunch every day until Thursday or Friday. The veggies stay crispy and the tastes only intensify over the week. It’s so good!

A Keto Salad Your Whole Family Will Love

Another reason I love this recipe so much is that I can make it as a meal or side dish and everyone loves it! I love a meal that I can eat and my kids will eat too!

Add Protein for a Filling Main Dish

If you want to add more protein to this recipe, just add meat. There are a few different meats I’ve added to this salad that are so good and also keto-friendly:

  • Chicken Meatballs
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Steak Strips
  • Beef Meatballs
  • Grilled Tofu
  • Pork Meatballs
  • Kabobs (chicken, beef or pork)
  • Grilled Lamb
  • Salmon
