Keto Russian Dressing
If you’re craving that bold, tangy flavor of classic Russian dressing but want to skip the sugar and carbs, this keto-friendly version is about to become your new favorite condiment. It’s creamy, zesty, and just a little bit spicy — the perfect upgrade for salads, sandwiches, burgers, or even as a dip for fresh veggies.
Traditional Russian dressing is usually made with ketchup and sugar, which can sneak in more carbs than you expect. But with a few smart swaps, you can enjoy the same great flavor while staying fully keto.
What Is Russian Dressing?
Russian dressing is a creamy condiment with a slightly spicy kick, often confused with Thousand Island. The key difference? Russian dressing is tangier and spicier, while Thousand Island is sweeter and milder. It’s typically used on Reuben sandwiches, but it’s also delicious drizzled over grilled meats, shrimp, or even roasted vegetables.
