Introduction

I needed a fast lunch to serve my daughter for a school day, she walks home and I had these things in the fridge. So I made it when she came in the door and served it on a whole wheat tortilla for lunch but it is also equally great over brown rice. She loved it and I knew she had protein and veggies in her tummy! I needed a fast lunch to serve my daughter for a school day, she walks home and I had these things in the fridge.

Tips

For lunch I sometimes just serve over a whole wheat flour tortilla! My kids love it for a hot lunch! Hope you enjoy it too!


Directions

Prep onion, red pepper and wash spinach. Slice chicken breast in strips such as for stir-frying.
