Method

Prepare Protein

  1. 1

    Chicken Breast

    Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the chicken. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Ground Beef

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    Tofu

    Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into cubes and season with salt and pepper. In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook for 10-12 minutes until golden brown, flipping occasionally.

Prepare Vegetables

  1. 4

    Bell Peppers and Zucchini

    Wash and slice the bell peppers and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. In the same skillet used for the chicken, add a bit more olive oil if needed, and sauté the vegetables over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until tender.

  2. 5

    Broccoli and Carrots

    Steam the broccoli florets and sliced carrots in a pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes until they're bright in color and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

Cook Grains

  1. 6

    Quinoa

    In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

  2. 7

    Brown Rice

    In a separate pot, combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
