Are Onions Keto Friendly?

Green onions

A green onion has another name, too - they are also called scallions. You can either dice up the small white bulb on the bottom and cook with it or chop the long green stalks and sprinkle them on top of your soup or salad.

Yellow onions

Whenever I cook, I usually reach for a yellow onion. It has a mild flavor and comes in a pretty large size.

This onion is fantastic for slow cooker keto recipes because they don't dissolve into mush; they hold their shape and texture well.

Yellow onions taste bitter when they are raw but have a sweeter and milder flavor when you saute or caramelize them.

White onions

These have less of a lingering taste than yellow onions. They are popular in Mexican or Latin American cuisine and often chopped in pico de gallo.

If you slice a white onion thin and let it soak in cold water, you'll decrease the bitterness, and it will taste sweet enough to be used in a salad raw.
