With the Fourth of July only a few days away and the guarantee of a party or two this week, we wanted to make sure to share one of our favorite macro-friendly side dishes that’s quick to prepare and is yummy, even for those who don’t track macros! Inspired by a watermelon and basil salad I had a few weeks ago, I played around with some additional ingredients to make a simple, patriotic side dish with a kick.

This shredded chicken is one of my go-to batch prep recipes because it is so quick and easy to make and can be prepared on Sunday to last you a whole week of meals. You can use it in salads or wraps for lunches or add it to any dinner recipe that calls for chicken.

You can find this recipe, along with 6 different dinners and lunches that use this shredded chicken as the main ingredient, in the Everyday Macros Cookbook located inside The Good Stuff.
