in Recipes, Dinner, Meal Keto cauliflower chicken Alfredo
Let’s get right to the meat of the matter. In this case, it's chicken covered in a creamy Alfredo sauce paired with savory cauliflower. No pasta noodles needed to get your Alfredo fix. You may want to double the batch, because it’s fabulous the next day, too. Dig in!

Instructions
- Fry the bacon until crispy and cooked through. Drain, and set aside in a bowl or on a plate.
- Cut the chicken into strips. Add butter in the same frying pan with the remaining bacon fat and sauté the chicken and garlic. Set aside when the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
- Sauté the spinach until it shrinks, but no more. Set aside.
- Add cream to the pan and let boil for a few minutes. Add parmesan cheese, bacon, chicken, and spinach. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Lower the heat and let simmer while parboiling the cauliflower.
- Divide the cauliflower into small florets, no bigger than walnuts. You can use either fresh or frozen.
- Parboil the cauliflower in lightly salted water for a few minutes. Let drain thoroughly. Add the chicken and sauce. Stir and serve.
Tip!
Orange or purple cauliflower would be gorgeous in this recipe! For a change, try spiralized zucchini instead of cauliflower. No need to parboil, just add the uncooked zucchini zoodles to the pan with the chicken and Alfredo sauce, stirring until the zoodles are warmed through but not too soft. Serve. For a nice garnish, save some of the bacon to crumble on top of each serving with some chopped parsley.

Yes, that's fine.
If you have four eating on meal plus one extra for lunch the following day why not select 5 servings or are you saying one serving is actually 2 servings on the 2 week challenge?
The drop down box says servings next to it, and you select the number of servings for the correct recipe amounts?? This recipe is linked from my email for day one of challenge....
My link from email for the two week challenge brings me to this page, so you are saying catagorically two portions per serving?
If this is so then the webteam need to amend the word serving next to drop down box as I am now uncertain about PORTIONS.
PORTION V SERVING V PEOPLE ?
Lets have it clearly stated please.
Is the nutrition value correct on this for 4 serving?
Unfortunately I can't attach a screenshot here, but from the main meal plan page, if you use Overview then yes, it will take you through to the actual recipe page.
If you click on the recipes tab, you can double check the proper number of People for the week and the recipes (and shopping list) will automatically scale to the correct instructions.
If this is still unclear, please send an email to support@dietdoctor.com and I can send you screenshots.
