I\u2019m in one right now. Even those of us who love to cook (or earn a living standing by the stove, like I do) find ourselves devoid of inspiration and exhausted by the steady rhythm of feeding ourselves. As I work my way out of my current culinary slump, I\u2019m making a conscious effort to focus on preparing fresh spring meals that get me excited.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"Html\">\n<p>What\u2019s <em>not<\/em> on that list? Weekday lunches. Luckily, that\u2019s where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thekitchn.com\/aldi-breakfast-best-sausage-egg-cheese-croissant-sandwiches-review-23502503\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aldi\u2019s freezer section<\/a> comes in. <strong>Aldi\u2019s Whole &amp; Simple Southwestern Style Chicken Quinoa Bowl<\/strong> is my go-to freezer find for this in-between season.

This freezer meal is generously sized, so that I\u2019m not searching for a second lunch soon after eating.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"Html\">\n<p>Quinoa and brown rice are the foundation of this microwave meal. The bowl is studded with hearty bite-sized pieces of chicken breasts and tender sweet potatoes. Black beans, corn, and bell peppers are scattered throughout the grains and it is all mixed with a bright and spicy chipotle sauce. It\u2019s exactly the type of meal I\u2019d make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thekitchn.com\/search?filter=recipes&amp;page=1&amp;q=quinoa%20bowl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from scratch<\/a>, but am grateful that I don\u2019t have to.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><h2>What\u2019s the Best Way to Eat Whole &amp; Simple Southwestern Style Chicken Quinoa Bowl?\u00a0<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"Html\">\n<p>This frozen meal comes with both microwave and oven instructions. I have only prepared it in the microwave and have zero complaints! It\u2019s packed with hearty chunks of chicken and vegetables, and I never feel like I have to supplement with extras unless I have leftovers that need to be used up. The chipotle sauce that flavors the quinoa bowl has a kick, so I do like to add a sliced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thekitchn.com\/the-best-way-to-dice-an-avocado-23129971\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">avocado<\/a> or a dollop of sour cream to cool things down for my timid tongue.
