Keto Turnip Salad Recipe

Print Recipe

This creamy keto turnip salad tastes just like potato salad, but it’s low in carbs and perfect for anyone on a keto diet, diabetic plan, or looking for an easy low carb dinner side. Great for BBQs, picnics, or quick meal prep.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium turnips, peeled and diced

  • 2 boiled eggs, chopped

  • 1/4 cup celery, finely chopped

  • 1/4 cup red onion, minced

  • 1/4 cup dill pickles or sugar-free relish

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (preferably avocado oil mayo)

  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • Paprika, for topping

  • Fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  • Boil diced turnips in salted water for 10–12 minutes until fork tender but not mushy. Drain and let cool completely.

  • While turnips cool, boil eggs for 10 minutes, then cool, peel, and chop.

  • In a large bowl, mix mayo, mustard, pickles, salt, and pepper. Adjust to taste.

  • Add the cooled turnips, eggs, celery, and red onion to the bowl. Gently fold until coated.

  • Sprinkle with paprika and parsley. Chill in fridge for 1–2 hours before serving.

Notes

Add crumbled bacon or shredded cheese for a loaded twist. Turnips can be microwaved for a quicker version, but boiling gives the best texture. For more crunch, toss in chopped green olives or extra celery.
