Refreshing and clean summer eating 🍃 It's time to give your gut a refreshing SPA!
As the weather gets hotter, I crave light and refreshing meals. So, I made this clean-eating bento—salted scallion chicken thigh, tomato scrambled eggs, multigrain rice, mushrooms, and broccoli stems. The chicken is juicy and fragrant, the eggs are tangy, and the whole meal is satisfying yet light. Perfect for summer digestion!
🔍 Ingredient Breakdown
This meal packs lean protein (chicken, eggs), fiber (multigrain rice, broccoli), healthy fats (sesame oil), and vitamins (tomatoes). Chicken provides iron and protein, while tomatoes offer lycopene for antioxidants. Multigrain rice has a lower glycemic index than white rice, making it weight-friendly. Mushrooms and broccoli aid digestion with their fiber content. The dish is low in oil and salt, aligning with clean-eating principles.
