Chili Lime Chicken with Pineapple Avocado Salsa is a quick, easy, and healthy dinner recipe that’s sure to please! Low carb, keto friendly, clean eating approved!
Don’t you just love when you can get dinner cooked and on the table in 20 minutes, and everyone is excited about eating what you made? This is one of those meals!
Quick, easy, healthy, AND delicious!! This is not a drill.
My kids are a little weird when it comes to dinner.
They don’t like delicious cheesy casseroles, but give them baked fish and asparagus and they are cheering!
All but one child will cringe if you offer them lasagna, but grilled chicken and veggies? Hooray!
I guess I shouldn’t complain. They like easy, healthy foods!
But, seriously. I have a child who doesn’t like melted cheese. MELTED CHEESE! Where have I gone wrong??
Anyway. This meal is simple, easy, and healthy – with no melted cheese in sight! The flavors are bright, sweet, sour, and just a little spicy (depending on your chili powder). It’s a winner for everyone 🙂
