I’ve been trying to eat more healthy lately. I’m pretty terrible about that and now that the Holidays are coming up it’s pretty hard to do with all the cookies and baked goods in every corner. There are a couple of healthy recipes I just love now and tis is one of them. I’ve made veggie burrito bowls a couple times and that was delicious. Whenever I make a cookie now, I try one or 2 and freeze the rest. Then I ship them off to family or friends.
This is a good meal you can prep at the beginning of the week. The chicken and broccoli get baked on one pan and the sweet potatoes get baked on another pan. They take longer to cook. Sweet potatoes and broccoli roasted in the oven is now my favorite way to eat my veggies. I seasoned the chicken with Mrs. Dash chicken seasoning and then divided everything up into my handy Reynold’s heat and eat containers that I now love.
Do you have a healthy meal you like to have during the weeknights? Please share!

What if I wanted to substitute Brussels sprouts for the broccoli – will this change cooking time? Or am I better off sticking with the original recipe?

Five days is ok in the fridge all week for these meals? Or do you put them in the freezer?

This is amazing. My husband it so much. I thought I would have some for lunch, but it did not last in my home. Thanks for the share.

I feel the same as I wasn’t eating healthy the past few months. My friends saw how terrible my food choices were. More on instant noodles and canned goods. They really encouraged me to cook my own food. Actually, it was challenging at first because I am not used to it. For now, I am looking for a recipe which is easy to prepare. I can’t wait for this baked chicken broccoli and sweet potatoes.

Could you freeze all this for a meal prep portions?
