The meal prep bowl that actually looks like the Instagram photo — and takes 30 minutes to assemble five of them on a Sunday afternoon. Grilled chicken thigh strips over a base of brown rice or quinoa, with a rotating cast of vegetables: roasted sweet potato, charred broccoli, pickled red onion, shredded carrot, and a drizzle of whatever sauce matches your mood. The key to good meal prep bowls is cooking components that reheat well — which means no soggy lettuce, no avocado that browns, and no fragile herbs that wilt. Everything in this bowl improves or holds steady after 3 days in the fridge. Pack the sauce separately in a small container and add it right before eating.

Conseils de pro

💡Chicken thighs reheat better than chicken breast — the extra fat content prevents them from drying out in the microwave.
💡Store sauce in separate small containers. Adding sauce before storing makes everything soggy by Wednesday.
💡Glass containers from Costco are a worthwhile investment — they don't stain, don't retain odours, and are microwave-safe.
