If you’re anything like me, this month is full of goals. Eating better, spending less, more intentional with time…can you relate? Well, one of the ways I position myself for success is with dinnertime and this Chicken Thigh Taco Bowl recipe is a significant step in the right direction — here’s why ….
A Great Meal for Budgets
First, cooking with chicken thighs comes with several perks ::
budget friendly
full of flavor
practically impossible to overcook
Chicken Thigh Taco Bowls are a great recipe for ‘batch cooking’! PRO-TIP :: double the recipe and portion the chicken out for meals throughout the week
EMILY, FFAY
Getting a home-cooked meal on the table is one of the ways I manage my spending and eating habits. Not only is each serving under $2 per person, I was also able to limit the calories and fat by being intentional with my ingredients and cooking techniques (oven-roasting/no fat added).
A GREAT Meal when TIME is short
Next – talking about time management goals — this recipe is quickly assembled and on the table in under 45 minutes — mix – cook – serve!
Intentionality with my time is another key area that I’m focused on improving, and home-cooked meals definitely help me in meeting that goal. In fact, I was just talking with a friend about how family dinnertime can be one of the most fulfilling parts of my day. Low-key, good food is such a wonderful platform for conversation and reconnection and turns a regular part of my day into an opportunity.
A GREAT Meal for Batching
These spicy roasted taco chicken thighs and caramelized veggies are such a tasty and filling comfort-food meal. I love the flexibility of garnishes and the ease of batching for several bonus meals throughout the week. Look at us — meeting life goals in rapid-fire fashion — and it tastes so good!
