    Keto Dairy-Free Caesar Salad with Crunchy Cumin-Spiced Pecans

    By Alisa Fleming on August 15, 2019 Dairy-Free Recipes, Salad

    Kyndra Holley has expanded her low carb world to include non-dairy dieters with her latest cookbook, Dairy-Free Keto Cooking. This big collection covers nutrition, keto tips, and meal planning, and of course, it has a plethora of recipes. Kyndra was kind enough to share this dairy-free keto Caesar salad as a sample for you to enjoy. It includes her easy Caesar Dressing Recipe.

    Kyndra is a Caesar salad fanatic, so this recipe was pretty much a must in Dairy-Free Keto Cooking.

    Dairy-Free Keto Cooking Cookbook!I seriously love Caesar salad. In fact, I almost always have one when we dine out. Minus the croutons, they are typically keto-friendly no matter where you order them.

    Often I order a large Caesar salad as my entree and add blackened salmon or chicken. There is something so craveworthy about crunchy romaine tossed with a really garlicky Caesar dressing. In my world, there is no such thing as too much garlic. Or too much Caesar salad, for that matter.

    She sometimes tops her Keto Dairy-Free Caesar salad with grain-free Garlic and Herb Croutons (another recipe on page 362 in Dairy-Free Keto Cooking). But these crisp spiced pecans are a staple. The recipe makes more than you need for four salads, but that isn’t a bad thing.

    Although these roasted nuts make the perfect keto-friendly snack, my favorite way to enjoy them is on top of a salad. They add a great crunch and a boost of flavor.
