Chicken Tikka Masala

In the last couple of months, I have fallen in love with meal prepping. What started out as planned lunches for the week has grown into every meal and every snack for our entire week, pre-made and ready to go for the week. While it certainly takes time - and lots of containers - it has made our lives so much easier. I now only have to cook one day a week!!! Can you even imagine??!! In another post, I'll share all I've learned about meal prepping along with some tips and tricks, but for today I'm sharing one of our favorite recipes: Chicken Tikka Masala along with instructions for how we portion everything with our 21 Day Fix containers.

{Chicken Tikka Masala}

Ingredients:

3 Cups - Grilled Chicken (or 4 red)

1 box  - Whole Wheat Couscous (or 4 yellow)

2 Bags - Green Giant Chipotle Harvest Veggies (or 4 green)

2 Tbsp - Tikka Masala Sauce (or 1 orange)


Instructions:

1. Prepare and portion your grilled chicken using red container. The simpler the better, the veggies and sauce will give you plenty of flavor.

2. Prepare couscous according to box. I like Near East's Whole Grain Wheat Couscous. Portion using yellow container.

3. Saute Green Giant veggies in 1 tsp of olive oil. Top with pumpkin seeds. Portion using green container.

4. Portion tikka masala sauce using orange container. Mix chicken in sauce.

5. You can plate everything on their own or mix it all together for extra deliciousness!!

This is definitely one of our favorite meals each week. It saves well and tastes just as good on the last day of the week as it does on the day it's prepared. Enjoy!!
