I decided to do a blog post with my recipe at 9pm on a Tuesday (while I watch Fallon) so you all would get off my ass for my lunch recipe today. ;) LOL. Kidding! I was going to do it anyways, but all the comments and messages just prompted me to post it a little quicker. Thanks for the motivation friends.

This shredded chicken is simple. It is plain so you can dress it up however you like throughout the week! I will also share the exact recipe I made for lunch with it because it was SOOOO good. 

What you need (5 servings, 3/4 cup each):
1.5 lbs of chicken breast
2 celery stalks
2 medium carrots (or about 10 baby carrots...yeah, that is what I had on hand and used)
Water

Instructions: 
1. Place chicken in the bottom of your crockpot. 
2. Add in celery and carrots.
3. Pour enough water in to just slightly cover the chicken. 
4. Cook on high for 4 hours. 
5. Once it is done cooking, take out and shred.  
6. I measure mine out into about 3/4 cup chicken which makes roughly 5 individual portions.  I put a couple in my freezer and the rest in my fridge for lunches this week! 
7. Boom, you have shredded chicken for any meal throughout the week. You can throw southwest seasoning on it for Taco Tuesday or put in a wrap with some veggies. Whatever you want! But....how I ate it today was simply the best. (Are you singing that now? I am...)

For ONE serving of this mouth watering lunch you need:
1/2 cup brown rice, you know I love my Trader Joe's precooked rice. 
2 cups kale
3/4 cup of your precooked chicken
1-2 tsp szechuan sauce 

To prep ahead, I would:
1. Cook chicken as noted above.
2. Cook brown rice per instructions.  
3. Sautée kale in a pan sprayed with olive oil cooking spray until it is somewhat wilted. I did about 4-5 minutes. Don't burn it! 
4. Throw it all in a container and heat it up when you are ready to eat! 

Let me know if you try it and how you like it! Just remember, healthy food does not have to be tasteless or boring.  This is super simple but really full of flavor, even with just a tiny bit of sauce! I love the San-J sauces because they are clean and not full of crap ingredients! You should be able to find it in your grocery stores Asian food isle. 

For my Fix Family: 2 green, 1 red, 1 yellow.  I counted the sauce as an orange however I did not use the entire orange container.
