Easy No Oven Dinners {High Protein/Fiber}
Too hot or too tired to cook? I’ve compiled 8 delicious and healthy 10-minute meals that require very little prepping or cooking. All which have a good balance of protein and fiber!
Tips for building these meals:
Use pre-cooked proteins, like rotisserie chicken, canned beans, deli turkey, tuna pouches, or hard-boiled eggs.
Or, think ahead and batch cook some chicken or lentils (both will be needed for some of these recipes) to throw into these meals. Just remember that leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Stock up on fridge/freezer staples like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, hummus, tofu, and frozen edamame.
