Keto Chicken & Green Beans Almondine Meal Prep

The first healthy meal I ever made for myself was grilled chicken breast with green beans and brown rice. The chicken was previously frozen, the green beans were from a can and the brown rice was instant. I didn't really know what I was doing so I smothered the chicken with so much Mrs. Dash seasoning but by the time it finished cooking in the skillet, there was about 1 inch of water in the skillet and all of the seasoning had come off. I still ate it though. Fast forward several years later - at least 6 years - and I'm releasing my own cookbook. What an incredible journey this has been. In honor of this milestone, I decided to revisit the first meal I ever created to re-imagine it with my newfound knowledge of nutrition and cooking. And I'm adding a twist by making it keto-friendly since it's pretty much the most popular diet out right now. Couple of tips: If you'd like to increase the abundance of the meal - while marginally increasing the carbohydrates - I recommend adding steamed or sautéed cauliflower rice with chopped onion. Swap in chicken thighs for chicken breasts to up the amount of fat to help meet individual caloric fat goals for meals. To make this a leaner low-carb recipe, simply use a total of 1 1/2 tablespoon olive instead of 3 tablespoons, and reduce the amount of sliced almonds for the green beans. Add some heat with cracked red pepper. Use lime or lemon juice for individual meal seasoning instead of copious amounts of salt. Wanna try keto?
