Chicken Dinner (Frozen Meal) (1 Meal (11 Oz))

Check the label and choose a frozen chicken meal with less added sugar and fewer refined starches; favor options centered on chicken and non-starchy vegetables.

Eat the chicken and vegetables first, and leave part of high-carbohydrate sides such as mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, or sweet sauces for later or reduce the portion.

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, green beans, cauliflower, spinach, or a salad with a low-sugar dressing.

Replace part of a starchy side with a small serving of lentils, chickpeas, or beans if they fit your meal plan.

Avoid pairing the meal with sugary drinks, juice, dessert, or extra bread; choose water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea instead.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating if it is safe and appropriate for you.
