Did you know that you can make an athlete dinner in under 10 minutes with this super easy meal from Trader Joe's? Well, you can! So this meal follows my performance plate method where we have the right ratio of carbs to fats to protein to fruits and vegetables that an athlete's body needs to stay strong, to stay fueled, and to optimize their body for performance. So run to Trader Joe's and you are going to grab this green chili chicken bowl, and then we want to add extra carbs with this. So you're going to grab this rice and do another cup. Mixed in with this, and then grab whatever fruits and vegetables that you like and that you want to pair with this meal. This is going to be perfect for on-the-go nights, busy athletes, college athletes who cook for themselves, nights where you're in a hotel and you only have a microwave to make dinner. Here's your solution.
