Pulled BBQ Chicken Bowl
This recipe can be on the table in under 10 minutes if you have the chicken precooked from making chicken stock. I love the simplicity of making bowls and how everyone in the family can sort of make their own with what they want. They are so easy, and its a great way to use up all the leftovers. I made these after cooking a whole chicken for some chicken stock - then shredded the meat and added BBQ Sauce. Going on this no sugar adventure, has really taught me to be more creative and useful with what we have in the house. I am slowly getting better at looking in the cabinets, seeing what we have, and piecing something together. I am also a lot braver with sauces and flavors. Once that sweet taste is gone, you have to replace it with something!
So for the base, I used a whole chicken that I was using to make chicken stock. I removed the meat, and used half of it for my probiotic chicken salad, and the other bit for these BBQ Bowls. Then I saw we had some purple and green shredded cabbage, so I made my 5 minute coleslaw recipe, topped with some jalapeno (seeds removed for the little ones), and my husband had it over a bowl of rice, while I enjoyed it as is!
For the sauces we used:
Primally Pure BBQ Sauce - For the shredded chicken we used this to taste, I would say about 1.5 cups per 3 cups of chicken
Primally Pure Avo Mayo - Mixed with some lemon and Apple Cider Vinegar you get an super healthy, and delicious coleslaw!
