Keto Zesty Green Beans with Parmesan

7 ratings

These citrusy green beans are rich with butter, zesty lemon, aromatic garlic and tangy parmesan cheese.

These make a great side to grilled chicken or pork.

    Beware…this recipe is all wrong! The nutritional content makes it look better for you than it actually is : 3.5 oz of Green Beans (string Beans), Raw is 4g net carbs. The nutritional information listed is for only 1 oz of beans for your serving.

      This recipe says that a serving is3.5 oz but the instructions say it makes 3 servings. So forgive my confusion, but what is the serving size. 1 oz seems very low. Thank s

        The amounts of the ingredients are off. One serving is 3.5 ounces, but recipe has 3 servings but calls for only 3.5 ounces of green beans. 3x3.5 ounces = 10.5 ounces. I made a copy and tripled the ingredient amounts to correct the recipe, which right now makes only 1 real serving. Let me know if my calculation is wrong.

          No way is this 3 servings. I ate it all at once

          Seems right. 3.5 oz of green beans total divided by 3 servings seems like 1 oz per serving which seems off.

        What is the serving weight?
