Notes

- Even though the carbs per serving are low, you’ll want more! For many 1 serving is just not enough. So this recipe for 4 may only feed 2 people. Hence why it’s called “lazy.”
- The nutritional value of this dish is based on the keto version and is approximate. The net carbs per serving is 8.
