Traditional caprese salad (recipe) is a keto friendly food item with net carbohydrates of about 1-2 per serving.
Recipe instructions
- Slice tomatoes and mozzarella cheese to 1/4\ thick slices.
- Place tomatoes and mozzarella alternately in a pattern around the perimeter of a small serving dish. Alternatively, for single serving dishes, place the mozzarella slices on top of the tomato slices, arranging for 8 servings (arrange for four servings, if using it as a main dish).
- Sprinkle the the salad sparsely with the olive oil.
- Sprinkle the salad lightly (or to taste) with the salt and ground black pepper.
- Place whole (or torn) basil leaves on top of the tomatoes and mozzarella, using pieces that roughly match the size of the tomato and mozzarella slices.
- Serve immediately.
- Note: do NOT allow the tomatoes and mozzarella sit in the oil for more than a short few minutes. The oil will just soak into the tomato and mozzarella and ruin the flavor. The oil is intended to be a garnish, and not a primary flavor in the dish.
