Question 4

How can I make this recipe more budget-friendly?

Accepted Answer

To make this recipe budget-friendly, swap expensive ingredients like olives or capers for more affordable options like chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

Question 5

Are the ingredients based on classic Nicoise salad?

Accepted Answer

No! The core ingredients of a classic French Niçoise salad typically include tuna, hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, potatoes, olives, anchovies, and vinaigrette.

But to make the dish keto-friendly, we replaced starchy potatoes with low-carb vegetables like arugula and cucumber. We also didn't make a tuna salad and opted for a salmon filet instead.

Question 6

Can I use frozen green beans for this dish?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use frozen green beans. Just thaw them first and pat them dry before adding them to the salad.
