This smoked turkey salad makes a perfect food and is a healthy alternative to to any sandwich! Low carb, keto, and Whole30 approved, this flavorful salad makes an amazing lunch!
Call it an appetizer Call it an awesome dip. Or maybe call it a salad like me!!
Call it whatever you want!
This recipe is so refreshing and perfect for a snack or a lunch.
Fresh crunchy, and vibrant vegetables are mixed together with the smoky turkey and set off by a bright lemon dressing.
This salad goes together quickly, and tastes even better if it has a bit to sit and marinate in the fridge.
I asked my deli for a 1/4″ thick slice of of natural (i.e. no fillers or gluten!) smoked turkey: this made cubing easy!

Beautiful meal!! Thanks for sharing with Hearth and Soul!!
I am so glad I found your blog. I love how light and healthy your recipes are. Please share this salad today on foodie friday. I will subscribe.
Thanks Diane, I happy to have you! Shared!
What a wonderful salad! I love the bright, fresh flavours in the dressing as well.
After my first bite, I seriously wanted to dance a little jig. This recipe is so up my alley and I love how simple and healthy it is. The endive is really a yummy touch, btw. I liked it better than the rice crackers! I also used Applegate pre-sliced smoked turkey and that worked great too!
Yes, I like the added crunch of the endive too, I think romain would be good too! Glad you liked it, such a party of flavors….
This looks delicious! I crave salads this time of year. TFS!
