Healthy Shrimp – Calories: 345

Yield: 4, Prep Time 10 mins; Cook Time 30 mins, Total Time 40 mins
Per Serving: Calories: 345, Fats: 6g, Protein: 29g, Carbs: 27g, Fiber: 4g, Sugar: 2g .

Ingredients:

  • For The Honey Garlic Shrimp

    • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
    • 1 tsp raw honey
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
    • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
    • 1 tsp rice vinegar
    • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled & deveined
    • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • For the Lemon Sugar Snap Peas:

    • 1 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 lb fresh sugar snap peas
    • 1 tsp lemon zest freshly grated
    • 1/2 tsp sea salt
    • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • For the Instant Pot Brown Rice:

    • 2 cups brown rice, uncooked
    • 2 1/2 cups water
  • Instructions:

  • We’re going to start with our brown rice since that takes the longest to prepare. You can always steam rice in a covered pot on the stove, but I like using my Instant Pot to make rice because I can get it started and then just forget about it.
  • To make the rice, add your uncooked brown rice to the Instant Pot. Pour in water, and stir to combine. Then, seal the lid and select the RICE option on high pressure.
  • The Instant Pot is going to start its magic and will eventually seal itself once it builds up enough pressure. When it?s done, carefully remove the lid and fluff the brown rice with a fork. Then, allow the rice to cool.
  • Alternatively, you can add the rice to a deep pot and heat to a simmer over medium heat. Then, cook for 25-30 minutes, or until rice fully absorbs the water.
  • While rice is cooking, we can prep our honey garlic meal prep shrimp and our lemon snap peas.
  • To make the shrimp, start by making the sauce. So add raw honey, low sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, minced fresh ginger, crushed red pepper flakes, and rice vinegar to a mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Then set this sauce aside for a sec.
  • Heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Place shrimp in the skillet. Cook the shrimp until pink on both sides, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Pour in the sauce and cook until the shrimp is fully cooked and the sauce is heated through, about 2-3 minutes. Then, set this aside to cool.
  • To make the lemon snap peas, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the fresh sugar snap peas and toss to coat. Cook snap peas over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add the lemon zest, sea salt, and ground black pepper, and cook an additional 3-5 minutes, until the snap peas begin to puff up and are crisp, yet tender.
  • Divide the steamed rice into 4 equal portions in your meal prep containers. Add the lemon snap peas to the opposite side of the containers. Then, top the rice with our honey garlic shrimp and the rest of the sauce. Seal the lids tightly and store this meal prepped shrimp in fridge for up to 4 days

  • Roll the mixture into meatballs (you should have about 15-18) and place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 165 F.
  • Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  • Toss the meatballs in the teriyaki sauce (see below) until evenly coated (reserving about 2 tbsp for the vegetables and serving on the side).
  • For the vegetables:
  • Melt 1 tbsp coconut oil in a large, deep frying pan on medium heat. Saute the cauliflower rice with salt and coconut amino for 8-10 minutes or until cooked through and lightly crisped. Set aside.
  • Using the same pan, bring about 1/4 inch of water to a simmer in the pan. Lightly salt the water and add the broccoli to the pan and cover with a lid to steam the broccoli for 8-10 minutes or until the broccoli is tender. Remove any excess water and set the broccoli aside. For the sauce:
  • Combine all of the ingredients (reserving the arrowroot) in a small saucepan and set on the stove on medium heat. Whisk in the arrowroot simmer on low for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens. Set the sauce aside.

  • Use 3-4 glass containers to layer in the cauliflower rice, broccoli, and about 4-6 meatballs per container. Top the vegetables with the remainder of the sauce, or serve the sauce on the side, and add the chopped green onion on top of the meatballs. Store in the fridge for about 3 days and enjoy for lunch or dinner!

Healthy Shredded Chicken Bowls - Calories: 318

Yield: 3

CALORIES: 318, FAT: 17g, CARBOHYDRATES: 8g,PROTEIN: 34g.

It wasn't great. Perhaps try grilled chicken instead of shredded and a better sauce next time..

Ingredients:

For chicken:

  • 10oz / 300g boneless skinless chicken breast, boiled, shredded
  • 1 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp hot paprika (optional)
  • ½ lemon, juice of
  • 2 tsp dried mint
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil

Sauce

  • 2 Tbsp almond butter
  • ½ lemon, juice of
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tsp hot paprika
  • 2 tbsp water

Veggies

  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup zucchini, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp mint
  • ½ tsp cumin

Instructions:

  1. To make the chicken I just boiled boneless, skinless chicken breast in water with salt until done (around 12 minutes). Then I let it cool off a bit and shredded using a fork. You can of course use any method you like to shred a chicken. Once the chicken is ready, it's time to add in the herbs, spices and lemon juice. Mix it all together and it's ready.
  2. Garlicky sauce: Mix tahini or almond butter with garlic, lemon juice, hot paprika. The sauce will begin to thicken and get sticky. To make it creamy again - add water 1 tbsp at a time until you reach desired consistency. For me it took about 2 tbsp water.
  3. Chop the vegetables that you want to roast in bite-sized pieces.
  4. Heat a nonstick pan to medium, add olive oil.
  5. Add the vegetables, the garlic, mint, black pepper, cumin and sprinkle some salt. Stir well, so that the vegetables are covered with the herbs and spices.
  6. Cover with a lid and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  7. Uncover, stir well, flipping some of the vegetables and let cook for 2 more minutes. Turn the heat off and enjoy!
  8. Add a tomato cucumber salad as a side.
