  • Keto-friendly veggies: Avoid high-carb additions like beans, peas, and carrots.
  • Protein boost: Consider adding grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu for extra protein, making the salad more filling and satisfying.
  • Use a feta cheese block: Avoid pre-crumbled varieties, which often contain additives.
  • Serve immediately: Greek salads are at their best when freshly made, so aim to serve and enjoy them promptly.
