Easy High Protein Meal Prep: Delicious and Nutritious Bow...

Ingredients

• 1 lb chicken breast, diced
• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tablespoons salsa
• 1 lime, juiced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. On a baking sheet, toss the diced chicken breast with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
3. While the chicken is baking, cook the quinoa according to package instructions. Typically, this involves bringing 2 cups of water to a boil, adding the quinoa, and simmering for 15 minutes.
4. In the last 10 minutes of the quinoa cooking, steam the broccoli florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Once everything is cooked, assemble the meal prep bowls by dividing the quinoa, black beans, chicken, steamed broccoli, and diced red bell pepper evenly among containers.
6. Top each bowl with sliced avocado, a tablespoon of salsa, a squeeze of lime juice, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
