This delicious Green Keto Salad is my version of a Ceasar Salad with a twist. It is also one of my favorite salads and once you try it it will be yours too! However, if you prefer, the classic Caesar, of course, veganized, you can always use the dressing from this recipe. Otherwise, follow the instructions for the traditional kind. You may even add some tempeh bacon bits that are included in the SWEET POTATO DELUXE. You can sprinkle this Keto Sald if you like to have more protein.

I am sure you agree, that consuming one big salad each day is a must. In general, eating as many raw veggies and some fruits is crucial for our health. One of the reasons why I created this Keto Salad is for people who are on the vegan keto diet. Although, I do not support a regular keto diet, for obvious reasons!

Now back to the importance of eating raw fruits and veggies for our health regardless of what diet we are on! Sadly, the majority of people do not consume enough healthy food period! In many cases, they just don’t like it, or they claim they cannot afford it. Unfortunately, this is just a due to lack of education and advertising of unhealthy fast food everywhere. I am trying my best promoting healthier and cruelty-free living here on my blog. I just hope more people would visit.
