Nutrient Dense Chicken Pad Thai Receipe
Looking for a flavourful high protein meal? This is it!
Colourful meals that include all essential nutrients (carbs, protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals) are an excellent way to elevate your health and manage a healthy weight. The sauce is what truly makes this meal and using peanut butter as the base is a great way to increase the nutrition profile of your meal without sacrificing flavour. Peanut butter is a great source of healthy fats (mostly monounsaturated), contains high amounts of protein and fibre.
