chicken meatball & veggie bowls

Here’s a quick and easy “recipe” to use for meal prepping lunches for the week.

Ingredients

  • Chicken or turkey meatballs (I prefer Amylu or Trader Joe’s)
  • Veggies for roasting (mix and match to your liking!)
    • 3 zucchini
    • 1 red pepper
    • 1 head of cauliflower
    • 1 package sliced portabello mushrooms
  • Olive oil spray
  • Kosher salt
  • Meal prep containers

Directions

  • Chop veggies into bite-size pieces (around 1-inch cubes).
  • Place in large roasting pan and spray generously with olive oil spray.Sprinkle with salt and mix.
  • Roast at 400º F for roughly 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes.
  • Cook meatballs according to package directions.
  • Divide among 5 meal prep containers.

According to ChatGPT, this meal has the following per serving:

290 calories, 23g protein, 11g fat, 20g carbs, 2.4g fiber

The hardest part about this meal prep is the chopping! I like to mix and match the veggies depending on the season. I also supplement the meal with some yogurt and strawberries to get a bit more protein in the mix and keep me full longer.

I hope you enjoy! Let me know if you try it.
