Well this certainly turned out tasting and smelling amazing! Another simple meal prep recipe with little to zero prep, throw all the ingredients into your Instant Pot or slow cooker, and you're pretty much done! I boiled up some sweet potato glass noodles and roasted some zucchini to make this meal complete, and of course to get some more nutrients into the meal. This was definitely a great meal for noodles or zoodles, or better yet a combination of both! We are still keeping things low(er) FODMAP, so I ended up using Extra Virgin Olive Oil Infused with Garlic instead of minced garlic, and swapped the onion powder for Italian seasoning. I don't think either swaps made much of a difference, and like I said this meal was amazing. I will definitely be throwing this one into the meal prep rotation!

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
