Week 18 of Easy Keto Meal Plan includes 5 easy keto meals plus a low-carb snack! This guide is complete with net carb counts, serving amounts, and a printable shopping list.
Each week I’m trying to help take the stress out of a keto diet by giving you FIVE keto dinners plus a bonus meal prep recipe that helps keep you on track!
When you click through to each individual recipe, it’ll take you to the full, detailed, step-by-step instructions. This includes a printable recipe card that includes nutrition information. To figure out the net carb count, subtract the amount of fiber from the amount of total carbs.
At the bottom of this post, you’ll find a printable meal plan (with space to fill in your own needs & weekend plans) as well as an organized grocery list to help make things even easier.
At the bottom of the post, I include meal prep tips for each recipe in case you like to do most of your cooking during the weekend or before meal times. Even if you can’t prepare everything in advance, having things prepped beforehand sure makes the evenings go smoother!
So sit back and relax! No need to stress about what to cook. I’m taking care of keto dinner plans!

Keto Meal Prep Tips:
For many people, meal prepping on the weekend helps the week go much smoother! Here are some tips in case you’d like to spend a little time prepping your meals and spending less time cooking during the week!
Broccoli Cheddar Chicken:
This dish can be cooked entirely, then warmed up and served whenever is most convenient for you! Because it’s a cheesy, delicious, one-pan dish, you can cook on your prep day, cover and keep in the fridge, then reheat (covered) in the oven at 350 degrees F until bubbly (about 10-15 minutes).
This makes it a super easy meal, even if your Mondays are packed with presentations, practices, meetings, and more! It also makes a perfect meal for taking to loved ones who might be sick or super busy.
Bacon Cheeseburger Soup:
This can be made entirely on your prep day and then stored up to 3 days before serving. To reheat, microwave individual bowls in 30-second increments until warmed throughout (stirring between to ensure even heating).
You could also reduce meal prep time by finely chopping vegetables and cooking the meats up to 3 days ahead of time. You could even complete steps 1-4 (everything before adding the cream cheese, shredded cheese, and bacon), then freeze it until you need it.
Asparagus Chicken & Biscuits:
For the Asparagus-Stuffed Chicken, you can prepare (butterfly & stuff) 1-3 days ahead of cooking and serving. You don’t want to add any salt to the chicken if you’re prepping it more than an hour before cooking though–This can draw moisture out of the chicken, making the filling soggy and the chicken dry after it cooks. Save the seasoning until right before you start cooking!
If you choose to cook 1-2 days before serving, undercook by just a few minutes. Then when reheating in the oven, you may want to cover with aluminum foil so it doesn’t get too browned. Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees F five minutes or until cooked and warm throughout.
These biscuits can stay in the fridge cooked for an entire week, so feel free to cook these during your meal prep day! Then you can enjoy these 2-carb biscuits during any meal you like throughout the week! The recipe makes 22 biscuits, so you could be able to stretch this through a few breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.
Salmon & Broccoli:
While you can easily prep this recipe, I wouldn’t recommend cooking the salmon or broccoli ahead of time. You could prep the jalapeno lime butter up to 3 days ahead of time, then just leave it covered in the fridge until you’re ready for this meal. I wouldn’t season or cook the salmon until you’re ready to serve for the best quality.
You could easily trim your broccoli florets up to 3 days ahead of time (maybe at the same time you’re trimming broccoli for the Broccoli Cheddar Chicken dish?), then store them in an air-tight container (with a paper towel to absorb moisture) in the fridge. You could shred your parmesan up to 3 days ahead of time as well. Then when ready to serve, toss with butter, cheese, and seasonings, then throw in the air fryer!
Pork & Green Beans:
This dish can be prepared and/or cooked up to 3 days in advance. If cooking in advance, reheat in a hot skillet until sizzling and warmed throughout. You may want to undercook by 2-3 minutes to avoid overcooking during reheating.
If you’re just interested in prepping, you can cut the meat and trim the beans 1-3 days ahead of time, then store separately in air-tight containers in the fridge.
