Wanted to share a delicious meal that I made last night! Healthy, light, simple to make just lots of chopping, easy to tweak, and easy to make in bulk so you can have some for left overs:)
Clockwise we’ve got Lettuce, sauteed peppers and onions, black beans, homemade mango salsa, limes, brown cilantro lime rice, and chipotle chicken
It tastes just as scrumptious as it looks pretty! I also just put a little bit of salsa and squeezed lime on top, it doesn’t even need dressing! You get a perfectly healthy and balanced meal without sacrificing one bit of flavor and yumminess!
Ingredients (all Organic):
2 chicken breasts
2 bell peppers
1/2 cup onion
1 cup brown rice
1 cup black beans
3-5 cups lettuce
2 TBSP olive oil
Mexican seasoning
Mango Salsa
limes (to taste)
cilantro (to taste)
Prep: Marinate Chicken by first applying olive oil to both sides of chicken breasts. then sprinkling mexican seasoning on both sides, a pretty ample amount so you get the flavor. let marinate as long as you can, at least 2 hours if possible. squeeze lime juice on when you put the chicken on the grill/skillet, this will keep more of the lime flavor on there. Cook brown rice, and when its just about done, squeeze in lime juice and throw in chopped cilantro to taste. chop and sauté peppers and onions in a little bit of olive oil. warm up black beans.
Serve as desired, I made mine into more of a salad, because I needed more veggies that day, but this is a really easy recipe to do whatever you want with it-make quesadillas, fajitas, burrito bowl so a tortilla is on the bottom, however you want it! I just squeezed some more lime, cilantro, and put some mild salsa on top and it didn't need any dressing since it was so flavorful.
