Notes

You can make turkey salad without celery by omitting the celery
Substitute mayo with sour cream or greek yogurt if you need a lighter option
Use my air fryer bacon (or air fryer turkey bacon if you don’t eat pork) for the crisped bacon
Choose unsweetened dried cranberries for keto and the low sugar option if you wish for lower carbs
