It's getting towards the end of the week and you may have some leftovers you're trying to use up or you may just be looking for something super simple but still nutritious and easy. Say hello to my 4 ingredient General Tso Bowl! This was a recipe born out of my desire to use up some random leftovers in the fridge. It was a week night and I was looking in the fridge for something quick and easy to make. Then I spotted the following four ingredients, leftover and sitting in my fridge...all cooked up and ready to go, just waiting for me to give them new life:
- Whole wheat spaghetti
- Roasted broccoli
- Baked chicken
- Half a jar of General Tso sauce
Boom...dinner plan done!
I simply took the following quick steps and had dinner on the table for us in about five minutes.
- Heat a skillet over medium/medium high on the stove top, with a drizzle of olive oil.
- Chop baked chicken into bite sized pieces.
- Add the chicken, broccoli and spaghetti to the pan to heat through, a couple of minutes.
- Add the General Tso sauce and stir to combine and heat through, about three minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
Bonus Ingredient: Sesame seeds! I had black ones in the pantry so I sprinkled those on top for fun, but that's totally optional.
Simple food makes for a happy life.
