Creamy Protein Rice Bake
Honestly this dish reminds me of risotto (I know it’s not, don’t come for me😅)!
But it’s higher in protein and lower in cals… what’s not to love? Plus I had so much leftover for the whole week!
Ingredients
1/2 chopped courgette/zucchini
2 cups chopped kale
400g chicken breasts
300g light cream cheese
190g lift green pesto
200g rice
525ml chicken stock (or stock cube with water)
4 chopped garlic cloves
Salt + pepper
Method
Add all ingredients to a pan.
Bake for an hour at 180C/350F or until rice is cooked through.
