You can also make this into a hearty and tasty soup by adding a serving of this chicken to a serving of cooked rice and some frozen vegetables along with 1 cup of water. Viola, soup!

One quick tip for those of you wanting to shred body fat: Eat more soup!  The volume goes a long way to keep hunger at bay.

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED

  • 672g frozen boneless skinless chicken breast (about 3 large breasts) 
  • 406ml coconut milk (1 can) 
  • 200g sliced onion 
  • 2 tbsp curry powder 
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder 
  • 2 tsp ground pink Himalayan salt 

DIRECTIONS

Add all of the ingredients to a crockpot and cook on high for about 4-5 hours or until the chicken is cooked through and can be easily shredded with 2 forks.

Using 2 forks shred the chicken and stir so the chicken can absorb all the tasty coconut curry juices it cooked in. Allow to cool a bit before storing. Keeps for 4-5 days in the refrigerator for fast lunches or dinners all week long. Or freeze portion for future meals.

Easy Fit Family Meal: Same Meal Prep 3 Different Meals

melaniewalessustainableliving

Here I share a real world example of how my family of 3 created an easy fit family meal using the same meal prepped foods (chicken, potatoes, hard boiled eggs and salad dressings, along with fresh salad veggies, spices and condiments) and created 3 different meals by making small adjustments to accommodate our own unique goals, taste preferences, and portion needs.

Do you ever feel like because the members of your household do not have the same fitness goals as you that you struggle to stay consistent with your own nutritional goals?

Or that you have to cook an entirely separate meal for yourself which can be time consuming and exhausting? 

It’s okay and completely normal to have different goals, taste preferences, and portion needs as the other members of your household.  You can still eat well without additional time and hassle and reach your fitness goals by making small adjustments.  

These meals are also pictured above.

Meal Option 1:  Roasted chicken and potatoes seasoned with sugar free BBQ sauce, mustard, hot sauce, and spices without added oils.  Big salad with light ranch dressing and a whole hard boiled egg.

Meal Option 2:  Olive oil roasted chicken and potatoes seasoned with regular BBQ sauce and spices and a mayo dipping sauce on the side.  Small salad with vinegar and olive oil dressing and a hard boiled egg yolk.

Meal Option 3: Chicken and cheese quesadilla w/ ketchup.  Sliced veggies and light ranch dressing.  Hard boiled egg white with mustard.  Olive oil roasted potatoes lightly seasoned.
