If you are anything like me and hate cooking chicken at home then this is the perfect recipe for you. It’s quick, simple ingredients, customizable, and most importantly FULL of flavor! This meal has been a go to lunch and dinner for me lately because of how fast I can whip it together. This is a filling meal that has healthy protein, carbs, fats, and vegetables. This meal can be made in under 5 minutes if you prep your ingredients for the week beforehand. Whenever I plan on making this meal I typically chop my vegetables and cook my chicken sausage beforehand and store them in the fridge. (yep that is all the prep work requires, it’s that simple)!
Add ons such as the black bean dip and salsa are a great way to spice up a boring tasteless bowl. Using microwaveable rice saves so much time and ensures you are getting properly cooked rice every time. Chicken sausage is a great way to save prep and cook time as well as dishes to clean. Chives can add so much flavor and can go on almost any meal. I recently started growing my own chives, it is so simple you have to try! Next time you go to the store and pick up a stock of chives, place them in a cup or mason jar with water covering the roots and watch them grow quickly.
