bleu cheese
gorgonzola for the dressings

or caesar when i'm at work

then usually peppers, pepperoni, cheese, lettuce, and just a little bit of onion

on iceberg with a bit of onion and some mexican cheese. I highly recommend.

^not keto specific, but i'm on keto and I love this dressing and it's full of olive oil
otherwise, I love bleu cheese dressing or greek (olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice (a tiny bit) and a ton of feta cheese)

I like Newman's Ranch on spinach and/or romaine.

[fishscale4sale]

I add a can of tuna mixed with hot sauce to a big bowl of spinach and lettuce.

Another good one is shredded cheddar cheese and ground turkey with taco seasoning, mixed with spinach & lettuce. Basically a taco salad.

Most of the time I use oil and vinegar, that's it.

[bking10]

ranch, eggs, cheese, taco meat, chicken, bacon, etc

[benjaminclarke]

Egg, lettuce, spinach, LOTS OF RANCH OR CEASAR (I can't get enough of the stuff), cheese, beef, chicken, fish...pretty much everything I eat on keto, just mixed together in a bowl lol.

[AIM9x]

I bust out olive oil, dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, salt, cayenne pepper, and oregano. Mix it up really well. It won't separate on you because the mustard has emulsifiers in it.

[bleedingtraps]

Taco salads.

Beef, cheese, sour cream, salsa, ranch. Win

[Gishdream]

The same as every above but I add broccoli and bacon bits!

[CrashBandicoot]

i pour a bit of olive oil on mine, sometimes cheese depending on what i have

[schismatik]

cheese, avacado, bacon, ranch dressing on a bed of rommaine. Salads are what i usually use to get my fats to catch up so i rarely throw in protein in there as i get most of it from my main dish (usually a steak).

[skelooth]

Flavor infused evoo on lettuce. Sometimes chicken and avacodo.

I know this is an old thread, but I stumbled across it and had to share one of my favorite keto meals. Keeps me full all night and has a great Ketogenic/Anti-Ketogenic ratio (K/AK).

Southwest Baconburger Salad
Cook 2 strips of bacon and a 1/4 lb. 73% lean burger patty. Take the bacon grease and make vinaigrette with red wine vinegar, yellow mustard, salt/pepp, and sriracha. Emulsify with whisk and add all ingredients to salad of choice (I use a spring mix or romaine). Top with half of an avocado and shredded colby jack.

Macros:
1/4 lb. 73% lean burger 350 Cals/30 g fat/0 net carbs/17 g protein
2 strips bacon 140 Cals/12 g fat/0 net carbs/8 g protein
1/2 medium avocado 116 Cals/10.5 g fat/1 g net carbs/1.5 g protein
1/4 C. colby jack cheese 110 Cals/9 g fat/1 g net carbs/7 g protein
1 C. organic spring mix 7.5 Cals/0 g fat/1 g net carbs/0.5 g protein
Other vinaigrette ingredients: mustard, vinegar, and spices have negligible macros, so no need to count

Total Macros: 723.5 Cals/61.5 g fat (~76.5%)/3 g net carbs (~1.7%)/34 g protein (~18.8%)

K/AK = .9(61.5) + .46(34)/1(3) + .1(61.5) + .58(34)
= 55.35 + 15.64/ 3 + 6.15 + 19.72
= 70.99/28.87
K/AK = 2.46 (well over the 1.5 ratio to stay in ketosis)

Damn good.

epic bump!

I recently started subbing Bolthouse farms Ranch for Hidden Valley - BF is only 45 cals per serving, it is made out of yogurt (so it goes bad) instead of soybean oil.

I make my salad base all or mostly out of raw spinach, then add any combination of tomato, bell peppers, brocolli, onions, pickles, eggs, lunch meat, cheese, cottage cheese, olives, chicken.. etc.

I shoot for big spinach and vegetable bases that total around 400-500 calories, fills me up for not that many calories.

[DustyChicago]

In for dressing with realfood goodstuff in them. I'm on that Bragg's healthy vinagrette which is just olive oil and ACV

[prox01]

2 tablespoons olive oil, no vinegar. My salads are roughly a half a pound of a mix of asparagus, french green beans, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, spinach, bell peppers and avocado. Eaten with about a .4 pounds of Chicken Breast. Only about 1.5 tablespoons of the olive oil is ingested, the rest gets stuck to the bowl.

I prefer monounsatured/polyunsaturated fats over the saturated fats in meats.

[Robertosis]

Nobody here has mayonnaise? I love that with a sprinkle of grated cheddar and hard boiled eggs at the side. Plus meat, often trout or steak.

[IgboMeso]

Mayo, Caesar Salad Sauce or Balsamico.

This is smoked chicken breast with balsamico:

[nucknfutz]

Feta, olives, avocado and whatever meats I can.
