Hey friends! I am so excited to share this delicious recipe with you all! I’ve been making these HAWAIIAN CHICKEN MEAL PREP BOWLS for awhile now and we just can’t get enough.

I created this recipe before we went we went to Hawaii a few years ago. We were trying to eat healthy and were exercising a lot before to get into swimsuit shape. We loved them so much, we eat these and other meal prep bowls all the time. It’s become an awesome way of life.

Seasoned barbecue chicken, bell pepper, fresh pineapple, red onion and zucchini noodles are all inside these easy and awesome meal prep bowls!

I’ll make about 6 or 8 for Kale and I on a Monday morning, and then we’ll eat them for lunch or dinner through out the week. They are so yummy and super healthy. I love that you can make healthy food taste so good, and that’s exactly what these bowls are.

Sometimes I’ll use asparagus instead of the zucchini noodles. Either way, they’re totally worth making. I hope you guys give them a try soon!

  1. I’m sorry I have to ask do we add the barbecue sauce e in the pan or after it’s cooked? I assumed it was in the pan while cooking and mine isn’t as saturated which could just mean I used a little less but I would like to make sure. I’m sure it will be good either way! P..S. I love so many of your recipes!

    Hi Holly, this sounds great! I’ve been looking for some easy meals to prep ahead to keep me on track with healthy eating during the week. One question, when do you add the BBQ sauce? Do you toss it with diced chicken before browning??

    1. I’m so sorry I forgot to add it into the recipe card! After the chicken is cooked, stir in the barbecue sauce with the bell pepper!

    I made this for dinner tonight and set aside some for my lunches. It was amazing! I cooked the red onion a little bit after I added the peppers. I will be making this REGULARLY. Thank you!
