Trader Joe’s Buffalo Style Chicken Meatballs are one of those finds that make it very easy to throw together a quick lunch. I turned them into these rice bowls with roasted tomatoes, green onion, and ranch, using frozen rice to keep the prep to a minimum.

This bowl started as one of those easy Trader Joe's dinners that I threw together with ingredients I already had on hand. The frozen Middle Eastern-style kebabs do most of the heavy lifting, and with some rice, cucumber salad, warm naan, and tzatziki, it turns into a filling meal that feels like it took much more effort than it did.

This Ranch Chicken Quinoa Bowl starts with fluffy quinoa cooked in chicken broth, then gets topped with juicy pan-seared chicken, fresh vegetables, parmesan, sunflower seeds, and a drizzle of ranch. It has a nice balance of fresh, creamy, crunchy, and savory flavors in every bite.

I've been on a bit of a yum yum sauce kick lately, and this bowl has become one of my favorite ways to use it. It combines buttery garlic shrimp, fluffy quinoa cooked in chicken broth, crisp vegetables, and creamy avocado for a lunch or dinner that feels fresh but still filling.

I have been finding excuses to put my Grilled Corn and Avocado Salad on everything lately. Tacos, bowls, and now this chicken dish. The warm sliced chicken paired with the cool corn salad and creamy yum yum sauce is one of my favorite combinations for lunch.

Chipotle had this hot honey chicken for a limited time and I immediately knew I was going to miss it once it disappeared from the menu. I kept thinking about the sweet heat combo, so I ended up marinating some chicken thighs at home and turning it into these rice bowls for lunch prep during the week.
