Smoked salmon with avocado and watercress

This is an ideal healthy keto breakfast. Few carbs, healthy fats, and lots of potassium and fiber. Moreover, smoked salmon contains quite a bit of salt, which can be beneficial on a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Make sure to drink plenty of fluids! This keto recipe is from a collaboration with the celebrated low-carb chef Pascale Naessens.
