High-Protein Spicy Thai Fried Rice

Writer: Joy Shen, MS, RDNJoy Shen, MS, RDN

Easy dinner! Trader Joe’s cheat 😁 Much more satiating, double the protein 💪🏼⠀ 1 package Trader Joe’s spicy Thai fried rice⠀ 1 cup shelled edamame (also @ TJ’s)⠀ 2 TBS canola oil⠀ 1 large chicken breast, baked, chopped⠀ 3 egg whites⠀ Cook fried rice according to package directions, adding edamame with the rice. With ~2min to go, add 3 egg whites, stir. When cooked, stir in cooked chicken. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper if you like extra heat. 🔥⠀ Check this out!⠀ TJ’s package alone = 2 servings, 470 kcal, 14g protein⠀ My version🌟 = 4 servings, 400 kcal, 30g protein⠀

My favorite part? Only 1 pan to clean! 🙌🏼⠀ *Tip = I bake ~4 chicken breasts each week, chop, and have in fridge ready to add to any meal/snack.
