Are black beans keto friendly?
Traditional black beans are not keto friendly but these black soy beans are! 1 cup of the fiber filled beans are all you need for this keto ground beef recipe. They come packed in kombu seaweed which is like a jelly so make sure you rinse them really well before adding them to your skillet.

I cooked this with double-zucchini and froze in individual servings. Tomorrow will be my third time to have it for lunch, and it’s perfectly satisfying and filling. Full of flavor! Thank you!
