How to serve
This meal can be eaten on its own, served in a bowl. One serving provides almost 500 calories, which is enough to make for one satiating meal. However, if you feel like this dish needs something on the side to make it more satisfying, consider serving it with faux keto corn bread made with almond and coconut flours or keto cloud bread if you need something that’s simple and easy to make.
