One of the biggest hurdles I hear in the clinic is that healthy eating is expensive and time-consuming. It’s my mission to show you otherwise! I’m all about eating simple, wholesome, nourishing foods that are quick, easy and affordable! If you want to eat healthier you can, you just have to commit to it, and you don’t have to commit to cooking 3-4 hours every day after work, trust me! All the recipes on my website are so simple, so healthy, and this simple chicken stir-fry is no exception!
It’s also a great recipe to make in bulk during the weekend to enjoy for lunches throughout the week. You can always jazz it up by mixing up the vegetable you use and adding some brown rice on the side, which is what my husband and I like to do sometimes.
