MEXICAN MEAL PREP FOR WEIGHT LOSS: TINGA DE POLLO Y FRIJOLES 🇲🇽❤️ With school and work in full swing, I wanted something easy but flavorful. Tinga de pollo is so versatile but to save time, I decided to meal prep it with some frijoles de la olla. This delicious meal prep will keep you full because it is packed protein, fiber, and complex carbs. Feel free to add your toppings of choice - I’ll add queso, non fat Greek yogurt, or avocado when I’m ready to enjoy!
