“Good for you Greg! Youre making excellent progress with your goal of incorporating fiber and lean protein-rich lunches and dinners. Your salad with rice chicken and pinto beans looks delicious! The chicken provides lean protein which will help keep you full until your next meal. The pinto beans are a great source of fiber which also contributes to feeling satisfied. Its great to see youre mindful about not adding calorific foods like cheese that dont fill you up. Thanks for the update lets keep it going!”

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F).

5.
Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
