Simple Side Salad With Low Carb Croutons Recipe
Sometimes you just don’t feel like a hot side dish.
For those times, a simple side salad with low-carb croutons is the perfect answer.
I have chosen a Paleo bread for the croutons, which is all-natural as well as low-carb and gluten-free.
If you have a different bread you prefer, please feel free to use it.
