Day 7: Green Beans with Chicken and Crumbled Feta Cheese


This is a super healthy dinner with low calories as well as very yummy!


You will need:



1 lb. skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 2-4 breasts)

1 tbsp olive oil, plus some for drizzling

1 lemon

6 oz fresh green beans (1/2 cup per person)

1/2 cup fresh feta cheese, crumbled

1 tomato, chopped

1/2 avocado (optional)

salt and pepper to taste



1. Broil chicken with dash of olive oil and lemon slices on top for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the chicken halfway through and squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes

2. When chicken is almost done broiling, drop green beans in boiling water and boil for 1 to 2 minutes. Strain green beans, taking them out while they're still bright green and crispy. Toss them into a bowl with 1 tbsp. of olive oil, crumbled feta and chopped tomato. You want the green beans to still be warm when you do this to melt the cheese slightly. If desired, slice 1/2 avocado and add it in

3. When chicken is done, cut into pieces and toss in with green bean mixture. Serve.



I did not make this, my grandma did, but we came to a conclusion that this was a 8/10. I really enjoyed the taste of avocado, and I really enjoyed the taste of lemon juice. When I make it, I may add extra juice.
