7 Layer Salad

This Seven Layer Salad so colorful and tastes absolutely delicious. We eat it along side our turkey at Thanksgiving, ham, or any cookout during the summer! The crunch from the veggies is delicious.
Bring it as a side dish at the next family gathering it will be a hit! (and no one will know how healthy it is)

Keto Dad Tips:

  • Decrease the water chestnuts and peas for lower carbs. You can add in more green pepper to replace the peas! Removing the peas reduced the carb count by about 2 per serving.

  • Add Bacon or Ham to make it a meal for lunch!

  • Still tastes great as leftovers

  • Changing the brand or type of Mayo can change the Macros quite a bit. Make sure to choose a healthy fat, sugar free option!
