Keto Halloumi, Sundried Tomato and Caper Salad

This simple Keto salad packs a real flavor punch with just a few ingredients. Our quick and easy low carb salad is prepared with tangy halloumi cheese, salty capers, zesty lemon, sweet sundried tomatoes, and peppery arugula. This makes a great low carb lunch option loaded with Keto-friendly fats.

Can I Use a Different Cheese?

We have used halloumi cheese for our tasty low carb salad. Halloumi is a great vegetarian-friendly cheese, perfect for pan-frying or grilling. If you would like to use an alternative cheese, queso fresco or paneer would both be suitable options. Both of these cheeses have high melt points and can be cooked to high temperatures in the same way you would prepare halloumi. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.

Are Tomatoes Keto?

Tomatoes may be at the higher end of the low carb vegetable scale, but they can still be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced Keto diet. For this recipe, we have used sundried tomatoes. Sundried tomatoes are naturally sweet and have an intense flavor profile, so only need to be used in small quantities. We have used just four small sundried tomato pieces for this recipe. Look for tomatoes that are kept in olive oil and are free from added sugars.
