Low Carb Broccoli Salad Recipe – Easy Make Ahead Lunch Salads with the recipe and video tutorial.

Low Carb Broccoli Salad

This easy low carb broccoli salad is a brilliant make ahead meal that I often enjoy for lunch or take to potlucks or picnics.

There are only four ingredients in this simple salad:

Broccoli – the whole broccoli is used in this recipe – with the florets chopped into bite sized pieces and stalk grated into the salad for a mixture of flavors and textures. (For more salad inspiration, here are my easy Keto Lettuce Wraps.)

Lemon – you can use half to the whole lemon, both the zest and juice, depending on how many carbs you want to include in your broccoli salad.

Sour Cream – I adore including low carb, high fat sour cream in my creamy salads. You can also mix in mayo or low carb natural yogurt for a different, tangy flavor. (For another easy, creamy salad, here’s a 4 ingredient keto cucumber salad.)

Grated Cheese – adding in a portion (or more) of grated cheese turns the salad into a whole meal.

There are plenty of other ingredients you can add to your creamy broccoli salad, such as:

• Salt, Pepper or any other seasoning you like
• Sunflower Seeds
• Flaked Almonds
• Pumpkin Seeds
• Chia Seeds
• Walnuts
• Feta
• Goats Cheese

You can store the salad in a salad bowl in the fridge, although my preference is a glass storage container so that I can easily transport the salad if need be. (Here are glass storage containers on Amazon.)

Low Carb Broccoli Salad Recipe

• 1 Head of Broccoli
• 1/2 to 1 Lemon
• 1/2 to 1 Cup Sour Cream
• 1/2 to 1 Cup Grated Cheese

1. Chop the broccoli into small, bite sized pieces and move to a salad bowl or glass storage container.
2. Grate the stalk over the chopped broccoli.
3. Grate lemon over the broccoli salad and squeeze the juice over a sieve over the salad to catch any pips.
4. Add in the sour cream and toss to combine.
5. Add in the grated cheese and mix until fully incorporated.
6. Place into the fridge for a few hours to allow the flavors to fully develop and help the broccoli soften slightly.
7. Serve and enjoy.
