Keto Niçoise Salad in a bowl with a grey tea towel on black background

We’ve always loved Niçoise salads but this Keto Niçoise Salad with Salmon is our new favorite! Typically we make Niçoise salads with tuna but salmon sounded better this time around and BOOM, a new favorite was born.

So what’s in a Keto Niçoise Salad with Salmon?

  • salad greens
  • green beans
  • hard, or soft, boiled eggs
  • radishes
  • salmon – you can use canned salmon or cook it fresh
  • olives
  • cucumber
  • onion

You could also add in:

  • avocado
  • tomato

The dressing for the Keto Niçoise Salad is made with olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and fresh herbs. This is one flavorful salad!

How to make this Salad fit your specific diet plan

This recipe is super easy to tailor to your specific diet.

Not Keto? Add in some boiled or roasted gold Yukon potatoes for a bit of added carbs!

AIP? Leave out the egg and Dijon.

Whole30? Leave the recipe as is or add in some potato as mentioned. This is the perfect template to tailor to your needs, we are all different after all!

These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally featured in our cookbook and now that Cast Iron Keto is focused on plant-based + low-carb recipes, we thought it deserved a permanent place on the website.⁠⁠If you have our cookbook, have you tried this recipe out of the Meatless Monday chapter? If not, we hope you do, even if you’re more omnivore than plant-based. Why? Because they are simply delicious!⁠⁠The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠⁠The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect.
