It's me, Gillean!
My philosophy is simple: I believe what we consume is everything—from the foods we put in our body, to the ideas we feed for our minds, to the connections we have with others. Everything gives you energy, and what you take in determines how your life will be. My goal is to champion a healthy lifestyle that is simple, accessible, and gives your body what it needs to fuel your best life possible.

Chicken Stir Fry
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 15 min
Ingredients:
- 2 thin, boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips
- 1 steamer bag broccoli florets
- 1 bag sugar snap peas, trimmed
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 microwave package brown rice, cooked to package directions
Directions:
In a large saute pan or wok, heat a little bit of olive oil on medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add to the pan and cook, moving chicken around for 3-5 minutes or until cooked through. Remove chicken from pan and set aside. Put the pan back over medium-high heat and add a little bit more oil. Add the broccoli and sugar snap peas. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes or until veggies are tender crisp. Add ginger and garlic, cook for 30 more seconds. Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Add chicken back to the pan. Pour sauce over top and toss everything to coat. Serve over brown rice.
Other Ways To Prepare This Meal:
Plant-based: Use pressed, firm tofu cubes instead of chicken.
Kid-friendly: Serve chicken separate from veggies and serve with whole grain noodles or pair with egg rolls.
Gluten-free: Use gluten free soy sauce instead of regular soy sauce.
