Grilled Chicken and Veggies

Another one that you can change up however you want to fit your tastes. The next day I made this without the red peppers and added broccoli instead. This is another that I can make for both my husband and me because I make different veggies in the foil wraps, so his wrap has different veggies than mine does but we’re both happy. Another thing I love about this is that I can buy the chicken in bulk, separate it in individual meals, marinate it, and then freeze it. It freezes and dethaws in the marinade so it’s extra flavorful, and is ready to make any time. I’m separating out the chicken from the veggies in the nutritional info so you can change up the veggies. To calculate, just add the chicken plus whatever veggies you use (don’t forget to add in the olive oil, which yes makes your fat high but it’s a good fat so don’t let it scare you!) The totals for THIS meal are: 436 cal, 18 carbs, 27 fat, 27 protein, 524 sodium, 7 fiber.

Sodium: 114
Fiber: 7

Ingredients:
1/2 zuchinni
1 cup carrots (peeled and sliced)
1/2 red pepper
1.5 Tablespoons Pure olive oil
Garlic and Pepper

Directions:

1. Peel and cut up the veggies. Mix together along with the seasoning and the olive oil.
2. Take 2 sheets of foil about a foot long each and lay on top of each other. On the top sheet, pour the veggies into the center. Fold the first sheet up so that it’s sealed. Then repeat with the second sheet (second sheet keeps it from spilling if the first one rips). Make a different foil pack for each person to make sure you’re not eating more or less than you think you are.
3. grill for 20-30 minutes, or until the veggies are tender. Enjoy!
