PIN Favorite Low-Carb and Keto Salads for Summer!
These Favorite Low-Carb and Keto Salads for Summer are some of my most-repeated summer salads, and what a hard time I had narrowing it down to a reasonable number to feature here! If you look through the Salad Recipes on the blog it’s pretty obvious that I’m a huge salad fan, but this post has the favorite salads I make over and over for summer eating!
Are you the kind of cook who always makes your favorite salads for a summer get-together, or do you like to try new things when you’re taking something to a party? For me, the answer is “It depends.” Probably my Family Favorite Shrimp and Macaroni Salad is the salad I’ve taken most often to Denny family get-togethers (definitely NOT low-carb, but often requested by my family), but when I have new favorites on the blog I do like to try those out on the family as well. If you’re looking for a taste-tested salad to try out for a summer party, I hope you’ll try one of my favorites!
I use low-carb pita bread to make this Fattoush Lebanese Salad with Sumac and Pita Chips, and there’s no doubt that when it’s summer and I have fresh mint, fresh parsley, and garden tomatoes I’ll be making this salad. This might even be my number one pick for summer salads!
Al’s Famous Hungarian Cucumber Salad (from my Hungarian friend Al) is one of the most popular low-carb summer salads on the blog, and this is not to be missed!
