The Menu You Can Try

Chopped Salad

As we mentioned above, chopped salad is the best choice. Subway provides the low net carb for their salad menu. Most of them are at 11 net carbs. However, among many salad menus, sweet onion chicken teriyaki has the highest net carb at 28 points. In the second place, there is the meatball marinara with 21 net carb values.

Here are the nutritional values of all chopped salad menus at Subway

Oven roast chicken– 2.5 grams fat, 12 grams carbs, 130 calories
Black forest ham – 3 grams fat, 13 grams carbs, 120 calories
Subway club– 3 grams fat, 12 grams carbs, 130 calories
Roast beef – 3.5 grams fat, 4 grams fiber, 140 calories
Sweet onion chicken teriyaki– 3 grams fat, 32 grams carbs, 220 calories, 4 grams fiber
Turkey breast – 2 grams fat, 110 calories, 4 grams fiber, 12 grams carbs
Veggie Delite – 1 gram fat, 60 calories, 4 grams fiber, 11 grams carbs

You also can choose the dressing, from the sweet onion sauce to green peppers. Each of them has a different net carb value; with sweet onion is the highest at 16 grams. If you are worried about the carb value, you can always choose the safer dressing, which is oil and vinegar, with 0 grams of carbs.

Breakfast Menu

The best choice is steak egg. This menu is also paired with a flatbread that has quite high calories and carbohydrates. So, you can remove or order without the bread and enjoy the filling. And, you will get as follows:

Bacon, cheese and egg – 18 grams protein, 250 calories, 4 grams carbs, 15.5 grams fat
Cheese, steak, egg – 21 grams protein, 240 calories, 6 grams carbs, 12.5 grams fat
Cheese and egg – 12 grams protein, 170 calories, 4 grams carbs, 9.5 grams fat
Cheese, black forest hamand egg – 16 grams protein, 200 calories, 5 grams carbs, 10.5grams fat

You can combine these breakfast menus with the subway salad to get the best effect. Just make sure when you order both menus, you choose whether you also order double meat on the salad or not. If you use this option, you may have too high calories and protein intake, which doesn’t match your Keto’s daily menu.

Lunch and Dinner

For lunch and dinner, Subway also has spicy italian choices. However, if you don’t like it, you can always go back to the safest choice, which are veggie delite and other salad menus. And, you can even order various salads for lunch and dinner. Here are the examples:

Cold cut combo – 12g protein, 180 calories, 4 grams fiber, 11g fat, and 13 grams carbs
Tuna – 15g protein, 310 calories, 4 grams fiber, 24 grams fat, 11 grams carbs
italian bmt– 14g protein, 130 calories, 4 grams fiber, 15 grams fat, 13g carbs

Make sure you pay attention to those nutritional values, so you can make an ideal combination for your Subway Keto menu. Maybe, some of those menus only have small differences in carbs, but it can affect your diet greatly. Even as small as 3g carbs or even 1g fat, if you don’t calculate it correctly, your Keto diet won’t produce any result.

The Topping and Dressings

We said that you better avoid toppings and dressing. However, if you calculate it correctly, the topping and dressing won’t be any problem for your diet. As the Keto diet limits the carb, you can even make a combination of food that reaches 35g fat or even 45g fat but with low carb value.

Ranch dressing – 45 calories, 1 grams carbs, 11 grams fat
Oil – 45 calories, 0 grams carbs, and 5 grams fat
Creamy Italian – 80 calories, 4 grams carbs, 7 grams fat
Vinegar – 0 calories, 0 grams carbs, 0 grams fat
Savory Caesar – 130 calories, 1 grams carbs, 14 grams fat
Sauerkraut – 10 calories, 2 grams carbs, 8g fat
Sweet potato curry – 10 calories, 2 grams carbs, 7 grams fat
Guacamole – 70 calories, 3 grams carbs, 6 grams fat

You can combine one of those dressing with chopped salad, for example, Subway Club that has 3g fat will be a perfect choice. The combination won’t give you too high-fat value. Or, Turkey breast that only has 2g fat is also a good choice. Just pay attention to its calorie combination.
