Keto Caesar Salad

Yields2 ServingsPrep Time10 minsCook Time10 minsTotal Time20 mins

This recipe has stood the test of time and still never feels dated. A bed of humble mixed greens gets a lift from the low-carb dressing, while a few slices of crispy bacon give a crunchy texture. We love every opportunity to dive into a massive bowl of salad and this keto caesar is the way to go!

Choose fresh, crisp mixed greens for this one! The variety of flavors from bitter to mild is what makes this salad so special. The powerful kick of chili flakes goes perfectly well with the tender chicken, so feel free to be generous with spices and add a little more if you are in the mood for something spicy. If you have a habit of prepping meals in advance, just make sure to store the dressing in a separate container and drizzle over the salad when you are ready to eat. If you are sharing the salad with family and friends, make sure to double the portions as this tends to disappear right before your eyes.
