Every once in a while I like to have a convenience
food on hand to make my meal prepping for lunches a little easier. Last
time I went to the store I made sure to pick up a package of the Trader Joe's Grilled Chicken Strips.
The chicken is fully cooked chicken breast, which is cut into strips
and is plain ole chicken - no extravagant flavors present.
Since
the chicken is already cooked, all that it requires is a couple minutes
in the microwave and it's ready to serve up. What I like to do is open
the package and weigh out my serving. I put the individual servings in
the fridge and microwave what I need for a particular meal before I'm
going to eat it. It just makes things easier to prep and divide
servings.
I'm a picky eater when it comes to
chicken and this is real white meat chicken breast, which pairs
perfectly with whatever you decide to pair it with. I typically go with a
salad or a grilled chicken salad wrap. Since it's plain it'll adapt to
whatever flavors you add to it.
A serving, 3 ounces, is 120 calories or 3 points plus values.
Hi Shannon how is it going? I recently bought the same item from Trader Joes but noticed that my expiration date is 10 days after the date of purchase. How can chicken stay fresh for that long in the refrigerator?
