Ingredientes

  • cooked chicken breast or thigh
  • rice or another grain
  • mixed vegetables
  • salsa, yogurt sauce, or teriyaki-style sauce
  • olive oil or avocado if needed

Plano passo a passo

  • Cook rice and chicken in batch portions.
  • Fill half the bowl with vegetables.
  • Add chicken as the main protein anchor.
  • Adjust rice to match your calorie and training needs.
  • Keep sauce measured so flavor does not hide extra calories.

Exemplo

For a lower-calorie bowl, use more vegetables and a smaller rice portion. For a training day, keep the chicken steady and add more rice.

Erros comuns

  • Letting sauce and oil double the calories.
  • Skipping vegetables and ending up hungry later.
  • Batch cooking without separate portions.
