Keto Chicken Salad with Walnuts and Red Onions Recipe

Ok, hear me out on this. Whatever this is looks like a hot mess.

Last night, I was really lazy. Apparently, I wasn't lazy enough to become a couch potato though, but lazy enough to not make dinner or even step into the kitchen. (I ended up getting a salad at Chipotle.)

So, for lunch today, I didn't have any leftovers to eat. This usually means that I'm going to be easy on myself and get something that is fast (& probably very bad for me). Besides, I'm working on a big project at work and I can use that excuse to get something to eat then drive straight back to the office. But, I didn't. 

I went home, dug around in the pantry, and found a can of Texas Pete chili. It has less than 1 carb per serving. I also found an onion, pickles, and hot dogs in the fridge. Well... this meant that I was destined to make and eat a deconstructed low carb chili hot dog. Right? 

So that's what I did. I cooked the hot dogs and added the chili to the sauce pan with the hot dogs. I chopped up onions, pickles, and lettuce (I needed some crunchiness). I found some white american cheese so I tore up the slices into little pieces to top the chili. And then I ate it. 

Not bad, I'd say. I still miss the bun (duh), but totally edible and passable as a meal.
