How about some Keto "Meatless Monday" dinner? Menu today is Mushroom Cauli-rice risotto with shaved parm and real cream, accompanied with garlic buttered green beans. Goes great with grilled chicken or steak too🤤
Buon Apetito!

And those onions!🤤 I cook this dish every couple of months, but when I do cook it, oh my! I am eating this sucker breakfast, lunch and dinner!!!

The key to success is planning. Meal prepping allows for balanced healthy meals to be available when you need them. Whatever is your goal (better health, lose or gain weight, feed picky eaters, free some time etc.) there is a plan for it! Let me help you!
These are meal prep portions for someone working on increasing muscle mass. 4oz of steamed jasmine rice, 8oz of pan fried garlic chicken and a side of 4oz of broccoli. Delish for about 450cals!

Ok... I Know I've been shutting the front door a lot lately... but... SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!! I just had a Keto "Big Mac Bowl" for lunch and y'all... It tasted like the REAL thing!!! and super easy to do... Got me some pre-made burgers (wanted to save time, but by all means, you can make your own patties) and put them in the oven with some seasoning, at 375 for 15min (turning them once) You can cook them anyway you want (pan, grilled, broil..) In the meantime as those cooked, I chopped romaine lettuce, added 1/2 bag of broccoli slaw, sliced radishes and sliced sweet onions. I added a tablespoon of dill relish (the one you use in the hotdogs) put a patty right on top and added some sliced cheese on top, and by now it was hooey-gooey...AND to finish it off, a drizzle of Walden Farms no sugar Thousand Island dressing.... It.WAS.AMAZING!!!! and only about 3gcarbs (from lettuce and the cheese!) :) My belly is happy!!!!
