The classic anchovies are next, or maybe another oily fish that you prefer such as smoked salmon slices. 

Now serve with, or drizzle over the top, with homemade mayonnaise. I was also immature and didn’t know why I wasn’t okay with that, just that it sounded gross.

I’m still not a fan of canned fish (which is unfortunate since my whole family loves sardines), but I’m totally fine with them in my salad dressing if I can’t really taste them.

Keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Then when you want to enjoy a fresh keto salad, simply put the salad together, add your anchovies and mayo, and enjoy!

What to serve with Caesar salad

To turn your keto salad into a complete meal, you can serve with cheesy keto garlic bread, almond flour bread,coconut flour bread or keto breadsticks made from mozzarella dough.

Recipe tips

How to make keto Caesar salad fast.

Making a keto Caesar salad at home is my go-to meal when we are in a hurry.

What salad dressings are OK for keto?

Ready-made dressings often contain unhealthy oils such as canola oil or sunflower oil and often contain added sugars and starches that don’t fir in with your keto diet. For example, Bertucci’s Caesar salad has 28g carbs (source: Cronometer). You can also use leftover chicken making this easy salad perfect for your keto diet.

Parmesan cheese – whether you like shredded parmesan cheese, grated parmesan cheese, or sliced, the flavour is excellent with this recipe!

Blue cheese – to amp up fat and flavour, I add a sharp blue cheese.

It doesn't take many minutes to whip up the dressing.

Common Caesar salad ingredients are lettuce, croutons, garlic, Dijon mustard, black pepper, Worcester sauce, anchovies, eggs, and parmesan cheese.

But with a few simple changes, you can lower the carbs and increase the protein to make it perfect for the high-protein low-carb diet, low-carb diet or keto diet.

Ingredients

A keto caesar salad is easy to throw together and typically consists of just a few basic ingredients.

Often it is enough to olive oil, vinegar and some good spices to make a dressing that goes over salads. I will use mixed greens if that’s what I have available too.

Dressings often have added sugar.

Notes

  • If you prefer more crunch to your Caesar salad (like croutons), we love using Parmesan crackers (like Whisps).

Very unnecessary.

So I make all of our dressings and they actually taste better than anything from the store or restaurants.

Much of the flavor comes from garlic, parmesan, French mustard and tamari soy sauce. You simply get exactly what's on the ingredients list.

  • Divide the romaine lettuce and spinach evenly between 4 salad bowls. I can imagine that many people have eaten a classic Caesar salad with chicken at some point and had this delicious dressing.

    Any other salad ingredients you need to use up can be added next such as baby tomatoes, spring onions, or cucumber cubes. Now add your choice of protein.

    Add your favourite cheese, for me it has to be blue cheese and parmesan.

    Protein

    Instead of grilled chicken, feel free to add another source of protein.

    With my recipe, there are no artificial flavors, dyes or e-numbers.

    You can also sub it out for feta, blue cheese, or even plain cheddar…whichever you prefer. When the skillet/griddle is hot, add the chicken and cook, turning as needed, until fully cooked through and no longer pink.

    Cheese

    A classic keto Ceasar salad has parmesan cheese, but if you aren’t a fan, you can swap it up.
