It’s easy to lose your flame after you’ve been prepping for a while. The same recipes week after week will leave you dreading your next meal. Don’t be afraid to change things up. It’ll keep prepping fun and exciting.

Asides from being fool-proof and incredibly delicious, the best thing about this recipe is that you can easily tweak it to suit your taste buds and your nutritional goals/needs. Want to increase your protein intake? Add more chicken. Decrease calories or carbs? Omit the quinoa. Try this recipe once and you’ll understand why it’s one of my staple meal prep recipes.
