Dairy-free Caesar Salad Dressing with MCT Oil

Rev up your metabolism by adding keto MCT oil to the base of your next salad dressing like I did with this creamy dairy-free MCT Keto Caesar salad dressing recipe.

My MCT (dairy-free) Keto Pumpkin Spice Rocket Fuel Latte recipe was a huge hit on Sunday. You’re down with the keto MCTs which makes me really glad because I’m creating new recipes with this keto wonder ingredient left, right and center.

Did you know MCT oil also comes in powdered form? Ya! In its powdered state, it's much easier to use, travel with, and incorporate into your favorite recipes. Plus, if you've experienced digestive issues with MCT oil before, MCT oil powder is a lot gentler on the gut. Check out my favorite brand of MCT oil powder here.

More keto MCT oil action today, with a twist – we’re using it as the base for a creamy dairy-free Keto Caesar salad dressing to promote balance gut flora + supersonic energy.

If you do not have access to this keto wonder oil, no worries. I’ve got you covered with a couple of replacement suggestions. Read this if you have no flippin’ clue what an MCT is. It’s powerful supersonic, energy-creating, keto, toxin-clearing, candida-killing, stuff that has changed my life. No joke.

Salad Dressing Isn’t Just For (Boring) Salads

After you make this keto recipe, because you must, you’ll have lots of keto salad dressing sitting in your fridge waiting to be used. And maybe, you won’t feel like eating salad.

Keto Pasta sauce: Toss with zucchini noodles and top with fresh parsley + pumpkin seeds.

Keto Marinade: Add to a bag with raw meat or fish and marinade for up to 24 hours.

Keto Meat sauce: Drizzle over cooked chicken, chilled beef rib roast or pork chops.

Keto Egg topper: Mix in with scrambled eggs or drizzle over sunny side up eggs.

Keto Roasted vegetables: Roast vegetables to your liking and drizzle, or chill and toss.

My favorite pure MCT oils

BulletProof MCT Oil: 6x stronger than coconut oil. Mixture of caprilic acid and capric acid. Ratio unknown.

BulletProof Brain Octane Oil: 18x stronger than coconut oil, crazy concentrated and awesome. 100% Caprylic Acid.

Alpha Supreme MCT Oil: More accessible than the other two. 60% caprilic acid and 40% capric acid.

I made this recipe with the keto-tastic BulletProof Brain Octane Oil but any of the above keto MCT oils would do the trick. Because MCT oil is virtually flavorless, you can have a lot of fun with it while cashing in on the keto health benefits, tablespoon by tablespoon. And in this case, keto salad by keto salad!

You’re vegan or hate anchovies?

That’s okay, try my Vegan Caesar Salad recipe, with keto hemp heart Parmesan! It’s a raw keto salad dressing made creamy with avocado flesh and spiked with a couple of capers. Heck, even if you like anchovies but want a bit of a change, you should give it a go.

Notes

MCT Oil: What is MCT oil? Learn about Keto MCTs here. If you do not wish to use MCT oil, additional olive oil can be used or flaxseed oil would be great, too!

Mayonnaise: any type of mayonnaise can be used here (watch out for ones made with yucky vegetable oils). I really like the taste that my Delectable Keto Bacon Mayonnaise adds to this recipe. If you do not wish to use mayonnaise, additional oil and a drop of white wine vinegar will do the trick.
