Keto Steak Salad Recipe

Often when I fry up a steak for an indulgent meal, such as a Keto Steak Dinner, I’ll cook a second steak to turn into a keto steak salad for a later meal.

In this instance I went for a mix of green vegetables and a quick homemade dressing to construct a tasty steak salad.

Low Carb Steak Salad Ingredients

Ingredients for a steak salad

Starting with the star of the show – the steak itself. Pick whatever steak you like and cook it until it’s done to perfect.

I usually cook mine for 4 to 5 minutes a side, depending on the size. It’s always best to allow the steak to rest for a 5 or so minutes to allow the juices to settle.

You can then enjoy your steak in the salad, or pre make the steak, allow to to cool and then refrigerate for a couple of days until needed.

How to make a keto diet friendly steak salad

While the steak is resting, prepare the vegetables. Wash a few handfuls of spinach and place at the bottom of your container.

Chop cucumber into slices and arrange on top of the spinach. Wash and tear basil leaves and scatter them around the salad.

Then, slice the steak and place on top of all the greens. And then finally, make the homemade dressing with extra virgin olive oil, lemon and salt.

Drizzle a few tablespoons of the dressing over your salad. You may not use it all as there’s plenty of it. So, you can save some to use on a salad later.

Enjoy your salad straight away or store in the fridge and take to work for lunch.
