Is Italian dressing Keto?

The next time you’re at a grocery store, take a peek at the nutrition label on the Italian dressings made by big-name brands. You might find a lot of ingredients that are not Keto-compliant. This may include unhealthy oils or non-Keto sweeteners and sugar. However, you can make a healthy, homemade Italian dressing that will beat anything you’d buy at the store anyways. Trust Carb Manager, you’ll love this Keto Italian dressing recipe.

What are some ways I can use this recipe?

Besides salad, pour this Italian dressing recipe over all sorts of cooked Keto veggies. You could even dip veggies in the dressing for snacking! You can marinate chicken, fish, or pork with the Italian dressing as well. If you are using this recipe for a salad, why not use it on the Carb Manager Paleo Air Fryer Italian Chicken Artichoke Salad?

Other ingredients you can add

Feeling creative in the kitchen? You can modify this dressing with some of your favorite ingredients to your taste. Swap white wine vinegar for red if you wish. Try adding fresh herbs to the salad dressing like chopped basil or sprigs of thyme. If you don’t like any spicy flavors, please omit the crushed red pepper flakes used in the recipe.

  • Step 1

    Add extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and white wine vinegar to a small jar you can seal with a lid. For a recipe like this, it’s okay to use the best quality olive oil you can get your hands on because you’ll taste the quality of the oil. Let the fat and acids naturally separate in the jar.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Next, add grated parmesan cheese and all the spices to the jar. Seal the jar tightly and shake it vigorously until the olive oil and vinegar emulsify with the cheese into a creamy dressing. Pour immediately over salad or anything else you’re using the dressing for.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    You can keep leftover dressing sealed tightly in the jar in your refrigerator. The dressing will keep for up to 3 days for the freshest taste. Simply re-shake the dressing in the jar before you use it!
