We’re proposing to you another quick and easy egg recipe that you can either use as a main dish or as a side dish. Eggs are very convenient, as they are generally very easy to prepare and fit very well into a keto diet. In addition to that, they are very good sources of Vitamin D, which a lot of people are deficient in, and also contain zinc, iron, and copper.
Mayonnaise is usually keto-friendly, but when buying, check the label to make sure what the carb content is. Same goes for Dijon mustard. You can make a spicy version of this salad by adding cayenne pepper. You can also experiment with the amount of mayonnaise, mustard and tahini you put in and adjust them to your personal preferences. You can also top with some chopped bacon bits.
