An Easy, Healthy Tex Mex Option Filled With Protein To Recover!
Ingredients :
Chicken: You can use raw boneless and skinless chicken breasts, thighs or even tenders.
Zucchini: Green or yellow zucchini. Also patty pan squash or chayote works great too!
Bell peppers
Corn: Frozen (no need to thaw), fresh (cut off the cob and uncooked) or canned (drained) corn works.
Black beans: Low sodium canned and drained black beans. Also you can use homemade beans like black beans cooked in Instant Pot.
Diced tomatoes: From a can and low sodium or no salt added. All or part of fire roasted tomatoes or Rotel would be great too!
Onion, garlic and cilantro: Fresh veggies and herbs best because they add most flavor with minimum calories. If you are not a fan of cilantro, omit it and just use green onion or substitute with parsley.
Spices: Cumin, low sodium taco seasoning, salt and pepper.
Cheese: Tex Mex, white or yellow cheddar cheese will be great too.
