Even a picky eater will love being able to personalize their popcorn chicken to their exact taste. Eat these alone for a quick lunch or snack, or pair them with a side salad or roasted veggies for a light, flavorful dinner option.

You can use naan bread to simplify this recipe, and all you have to do is load the bread with toppings and pop it in the oven. If you’ve got time, make a big batch and freeze them – these pizzas will last up to 3 months and are a delicious quick lunch or dinner.

1. Bacon Avocado Fries

We hear what you’re saying: bacon? Really? On a healthy meals list? Sure, it’s not the leanest meat, but these low-carb bacon avocado fries are an excellent substitute for regular French fries. Since they’re baked or made in the air fryer, they have less fat and fewer calories than a standard fry, and the avocado is full of essential nutrients and fiber. These fries can be enjoyed on their own as a snack or paired with a healthy main dish, like the parmesan-crusted baked chicken above.
