This is the meal prep that fitness people on Reddit and TikTok are always talking about — except this version actually tastes like something you'd choose to eat, not just endure. Five chicken breasts, five different marinades, cooked on Sunday, portioned into containers with rice and vegetables. By Friday you're still eating well instead of ordering Skip the Dishes. The trick is keeping the chicken moist: don't overcook past 165°F internal — invest in a $15 thermometer from Canadian Tire, it changes everything — and let the chicken rest 5 minutes before slicing. Each breast gets a different flavour: lemon herb, teriyaki, cajun, honey garlic, and Mediterranean. Same protein, five different meals.

Conseils de pro

💡A $15 instant-read thermometer from Canadian Tire is the single best investment for meal prep — it eliminates guessing and prevents overcooked chicken.
💡Cook rice in chicken broth instead of water for significantly more flavour at zero extra effort.
💡Reheat in the microwave with a damp paper towel over the container — the steam keeps the chicken from drying out.
