Make your salad sing with this collection of delicious keto salad dressings! Whether you prefer tangy, sweet, or spicy, these dressings will have you craving low carb salads all summer long. To your health!
I eat salad for lunch almost every day. So you could say that I am something of a dressing connoisseur. I’ve tested out any number of store-bought options, and created multiple keto dressing recipes myself.
I firmly believe that salad should be part of any healthy diet. But sometimes it can get a little boring eating large bowls of raw vegetables. Dressings add flavor and variety to an otherwise ho-hum meal. Mind you, we also need to be a bit choosy for our salad toppers, as they can add unnecessary sugars and carbs.
I figured I am not alone here in my love of salad. So I put put together a collection of the best keto salad dressings to make it easier for all of us. Now go make yourself a big keto-friendly salad and enjoy!
Keto Salad Dressings Recipes
It’s incredibly easy to make salad dressing at home, and it’s usually less expensive as well. The only issue is the that they sometimes contain perishable ingredients and won’t last as long as the store-bought versions.
But if you know you can use them up in a few days, then making your own can be extra delicious. Just be sure to choose the healthiest ingredients for an added nutritional boost. I lean toward avocado oil, walnut oil, and apple cider vinegar. Some good avocado oil mayo is great for creamy dressings!
1. Sugar Free Honey Mustard
Perfect as a dip or salad dressing, this tangy sugar free honey mustard sauce is a must in your keto diet. Made with only 5 ingredients, this dressing has less than 1 gram carbs per serving. You will never have to go without your honey mustard fix again!
2. Creamy Feta Dressing
Can a creamy keto salad dressing with almost 0 carbs per serving also be delicious? YES! This chunky feta dressing is not only super low in carbs, it is so yummy that you will want to pour it over everything. It makes a great dip for your favorite low carb veggies, too.
3. Chipotle Ranch Dressing
If you are looking for a bit of kick in your salad dressing, this creamy chipotle ranch dressing is calling your name. Great on Taco Salads or 7 Layer Salad. Or use it as a sauce on grilled chicken or fish!
4. Easy Caesar Salad Dressing
This keto salad dressing is creamy, tangy, garlicky, and has plenty of Parmesan cheese. It’s everything you want a Caesar dressing recipe to be! And with only 1g carbs per serving, you will want to make Caesar every day.
5. Sugar Free French Dressing
This French dressing recipe is like Catalina without all the carbs and sugars! I just had to re-create one of my favorite childhood dressings. It has only 1g of carbs per serving and tastes just as good as I remember.
6. Keto Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing
The classic poppy seed dressing gets a low carb makeover! With a touch of sweetness, this tangy keto salad dressing makes the perfect topper for your healthy salads. Light and fresh!
7. Creamy Cilantro Dressing
This delicious creamy cilantro dressing makes a great salad dressing or dreamy dipping sauce. Pair with it my greens, eggs and ham salad and you have a fabulous low carb meal.
Store-bought Options
The trick to finding good store-bought keto salad dressing is: Read. The. Label.
Not everything that calls itself keto is truly healthy or keto-friendly. I poked around a bit, checking out many keto salad dressing brands and quite a few of them contained soybean or canola oil. Or even maltodextrin!
Here are a few of my faves:
- Sesame Ginger from Primal Kitchen
- Dreamy Italian from Primal Kitchen
- Greek Vinaigrette from Primal Kitchen
- Habanero Ranch from Tessamae’s
- Apple Cider Vinaigrette from Chosen Foods
- Garlic Gold Lemon Vinaigrette
- Avocado Lime Dressing
- Champagne Vinaigrette

I did a simple search for a keto Caesar salad dressing and found a GOLDMINE of keto salad dressings! Thanks for all your hard work!
Is there a button to print out all 7 of these or one by one 😣? You are amazing ! Thanks for sharing! Do you have a favorite 1000 island? Been dying for a decent Ruben!
They need to be printed one by one. Look for my Ruben skillet, it has a Russian style dressing that you will want to try!
Any chance the jalapeño avocado ranch dressing would freeze? Not sure if we’ll go through it in a week
I honestly can’t say… you could make a half batch, though!
I made this. I added extra cilantro, lime juice and added some jalapeños. Its very good
Yum!
Thank you! You made me go look at my “low carb” store bought dressings! Oh the “crap” that is in them! On to home made!
Vitacost.com is an excellent place to get Primal Kitchen dressings. Free shipping over $49, delivered within two days, plus they offer discounts , 15% or 20% at times. My hubby is on Keto, and loves their dressings.
