MACRO-FRIENDLY CHICKEN MEAL PREP: CUBAN BOWL + JERK CHICKEN THIGHS

Let’s be honest, when it comes to meal prep, a bowl-style meal is my go-to. It’s super easy for throwing together a meal that’s packed with protein, loads of veggies and it really lends itself to adjusting the amount of carbs and fats you need to stay aligned with your macro targets. I love it because it’s packed full of flavor and an easy recipe to prep ahead for the whole week, whether you’re cooking for yourself or your whole family.  This healthful Cuban-inspired meal has flavorful jerk chicken thighs over nutritious veggies and wholesome beans making this balanced meal perfect for tracking your macros and working towards your weight loss and fitness goals.

3 BATCH PREP PROTEINS: CARNITAS, CHICKEN TINGA, AND A BREAKFAST SKILLET

Today’s blog post combines these two loves (and gives you some options for a Cinco de Mayo dinner that aren’t the typical hard-shelled tacos). These recipes come from a macro-friendly cookbook that I created, alongside a dear friend and former client, back in 2018. That was six whole years ago, yet the recipes remain favorites in our home.
