Keto Turkey Club Salad

About This Recipe

The classic club sandwich is a comfort food favorite—stacked high with turkey, bacon, cheese, and all the fixings. But the bread makes it a carb-heavy indulgence that doesn’t fit a keto lifestyle. This Keto Turkey Club Salad takes all the flavors you love from the sandwich and transforms them into a hearty, low-carb bowl that’s just as satisfying, if not more.

Instead of bread, this recipe builds on a base of crisp lettuce and fresh greens. From there, layers of roasted turkey breast, crispy bacon, hard-boiled eggs, creamy avocado, shredded cheese, and juicy cherry tomatoes come together to create a salad that feels indulgent while staying keto-friendly. A drizzle of ranch or blue cheese dressing ties it all together, making it both refreshing and rich at the same time.

One of the best things about this salad is how customizable it is. You can swap turkey for chicken, use cheddar instead of Swiss, or add extra toppings like olives, cucumbers, or even sliced jalapeños for a little heat. It’s easy to scale up for meal prep, making it an ideal lunch or dinner for busy weeks.

Nutritionally, this salad hits all the right keto macros. The turkey and eggs provide high-quality protein, while the avocado, bacon, and cheese deliver healthy fats that keep you full and satisfied. With only a handful of net carbs per serving, it’s a guilt-free way to enjoy the bold, classic flavors of a club sandwich—without the bread.

Whether you’re craving a quick weeknight dinner, a meal prep-friendly lunch, or a dish to impress at a potluck, this Keto Turkey Club Salad delivers. It’s proof that salads can be both nutrient-dense and crave-worthy.
