FOLLOW-UP TASTE TEST by C.J.
This recipe was really fast, and making the video was fast as well. This is a really versatile recipe, we used chicken but you could easily substitute a cut of beef, if you added some soy sauce you’d get sort of an Asian flair. The only thing that was lacking with this dish was salt, and that’s a personal thing. We often have recipes and we say “season to taste.” Meaning you add the amount of seasoning that you feel is appropriate for your taste. We watch a lot of food TV, and I always notice that they do skimp on the seasonings when making a dish. Don’t be afraid to experiment with spices. Keto foods can be delicious, and we try and show you that. Experiment, try new things, try your own spin on a recipe that’s how you learn grow and experience delicious food. That’s also the secret to success on Keto, and being able to stick with it long term. Have fun with the recipe, and make it your own. We’d love to see your versions of it over on Pinterest, in the Facebook group. or on Instagram.
