Not only can you make a great tasting ranch dressing for this salad, but you can use it for all your dipping and salad needs.
I love ranch dressing but don’t like most of the prepared keto-friendly dressings because many of them use soybean oil or canola oil. You also have to be careful of maltodextrin which will spike your blood sugar. And the ones made with avocado oil or olive oil are so expensive!
You can make your own and know exactly what is in it and you won’t be sacrificing flavor. Be sure that the first time you make the dressing, you record the amount of seasoning for your own specific tastes so you can make it taste great each and every time. It may take a few tries until you perfect it for your own taste.
