Chicken & Shrimp Stir fry
This is a great pre or post workout meal, since it is super high in protein and carbs and very low in fat. You can use whatever vegetables you'd like, or swap out the rice noodles for actual rice.

A lot of sweet chili sauces and sweet and sour sauces are also low. Yum Yum sauce is a TON
Sweet & Sour Pineapple Stir Fry
Perfect for after a workout, lunch, or dinner. If you want this recipe to align with your specific goals: If this is eaten as a post-workout meal or if your primary goal is muscle/strength gain, then use 1/4 - 3/4 cups of uncooked rice per serving. If eaten while cutting, you can take the rice out if it helps you stay in a deficit. Add more vegetables if you want more volume. Also if cutting, be sure to measure the pineapple because it adds up depressingly fast. Ingredients 1
