chicken fajita bowl

Super simple, low carb, high protein meal. A great way to eat clean without the added fat, and very filling as well. I like to cook everything ahead, place in Tupperware separately, or create 4 meals in separate containers, which makes it super easy to grab and either throw a bowl together for a quick meal, or just grab your prepared meal and go.
