Keto Parmesan Garlic Vinaigrette

Did I mention it only takes 5 minutes to make? Easy!

To whip up this creamy, indulgent Parmesan garlic keto salad dressing, you'll need a few simple ingredients. Most can be found around your house, but if you're new to Keto cooking & baking there are a few ingredients you'll need to special order.

I created this keto salad dressing after returning from vacation where I had what I assume was a non-keto version. Conversations with my cousin who is a chef made me realize that sugar is hiding in everything... especially salad dressings.

So, I set out to create my own version. I had wanted to experiment with using MCT oil as a base for salad dressing and I felt this was the perfect opportunity.

I set to work, blending the neutral-flavored MCT oil with a little tangy vinegar, a bit of sweet from BochaSweet...and my secret ingredient to make the flavor pop--- Dijon mustard.

Now, let's talk more about the ingredients you need to make this keto salad dressing perfectly every time...

Ingredients for Keto Parmesan Garlic Vinaigrette

This keto recipe isn't one where you want to reach for the cheap ingredients because your result will end up 'meh'. This is a place to use high-quality ingredients for a full-flavor keto salad dressing that will have you looking forward to your daily bowl of greens.

BochaSweet is my favorite sugar substitute and you can only find it online. Order it with any of the links on this page, you won't regret spending a little extra on something that tastes so close to real sugar. And if you're still hesitating... it's a superfood and very good for your body. So order and feel GOOD about eating something sweet for once!

For the Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar, make sure you read the ingredients list and the nutrition facts. I was surprised to find hidden sugar in both dijon and in vinegars. One really needs to be careful here.

I've linked a few safe options for you to order in case you prefer to skip doing the research yourself.

Notes

Tip: To make this dressing hold together better simply add ¼-½ tsp xanthan gum and blend it in. I recommend starting with the lowest amount and adding just a touch more until you get the right consistency.
