The celery and walnuts provide a nice crunch, while the blue cheese, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard add a rich and tangy flavor.

This salad was inspired by a classic waldorf salad, but with a few key changes to make it ketogenic. I used celery instead of apples, and walnuts instead of grapes. I also used blue cheese instead of cheddar, and mayonnaise instead of sour cream. The result is a salad that is just as delicious and satisfying as the original, but without all the carbs.
