GREEN BEAN SALAD

This simple summer salad pairs beautifully with practically any grilled meat or fish, and it’s quite easy to make.
It’s summertime here in Louisiana and I have been living on salads these days. My new Fresh Green Bean Salad is absolutely delicious and perfect to pair with a chicken breast on a hot summer day. Additionally, it is the perfect side dish to take to a BBQ. It is light, fresh, and super filling.
This recipe is low-carb, keto, and by omitting the cheese- it is also Whole30 approved.
