Keto Nicoise Recipe

Keto Nicoise Recipe

Ingredients

• 1/2 head cauliflower
• 1 pound (455 g) bag frozen, crosscut green beans, thawed but not cooked
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup (15 to 30 g) fresh parsley, minced
• 1/4 medium, red onion, diced
• 8 to 10 olives, sliced
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup (120 to 180 ml) vinaigrette dressing
• lettuce (to line plate).
• 3 cans (6 ounces, or 170 g each) tuna, drained
• 6 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
• 3 tomatoes, sliced

Method

1. Slice your cauliflower quite thin
2. Put it in a microwave-safe bowl with about 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of water, cover, and cook it for 4 to 5 minutes (were looking for it to be just tender)
3. Combine the green beans, garlic, parsley, onion, and olives in a good-size bowl
4. When the cauliflower is done, add that as well, and pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) of dressing over the whole thing
5. Stir well and stick it in the fridge
6. Let it marinate for several hours to a day, stirring now and then when you think of it
7. When you’re ready to eat the salad, put a few nice lettuce leaves on each plate and spoon a mound of the marinated mixture on top
8. Put the tuna on top and in the middle-use as much as you like-and surround it with slices of hardboiled egg and tomato
9. Garnish it with more olives, drizzle more dressing on top, if you like, and serve
