What I had for lunch.

This dish begins by sautéing thinly sliced chicken breast in a skillet until it's golden brown and cooked through. Meanwhile, you slice fresh bell peppers into strips adding a vibrant burst of color to the dish.

Once the chicken is cooked and peppers are sliced, they're served alongside creamy, chopped avocados. The avocado provides a rich and velvety base for the dish, complementing the tender chicken and crisp peppers perfectly.

To add extra flavor and texture, you can season the chicken with a variety of herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, paprika, or chili flakes. I specifically used ranch seasoning and cilantro on the chicken & everything but bagel seasoning on the avocados. Additionally, a squeeze of fresh lime juice over the finished dish can enhance the flavors and add a refreshing zest.

Overall, this meal offers a satisfying balance of protein, healthy fats, and vibrant vegetables, making it a delicious and nutritious option.

Been getting warmer so I’m starting to bring my big jug of water with me to work to stay hydrated. I put some snack in my lunch because I get hungry a couple of hours later and something sweet because I crave it after eating. I usually do a hard candy and not like a super sweet snack like Debbie ca

It’s fun to cook a fancy dinner and plate it cute, but sometimes simple is best, Espescially if life gets busy. Ground beef and eggs is always an easy way to get protein in for the day 🍳 I usually have a side of fruit with my lunch too 🍓 #lunchideas #highprotein #cleangirleats #health
