🥘 Summit Fuel Stir-Fry

🧭 My Goal:

Picture this: I’m starving and need to eat ASAP. I needed a quick, no-fuss meal under 20 minutes that would:

• Leave me completely full (hunger level = zero)

• Fuel tomorrow’s weighted backpack workout

• Be gentle on my stomach—no chili heat or greasy sauces

I nearly ate out, but realized I’d have more control over my meal at home. I used 100% freezer available 😁 ingredients and ended up creating something surprisingly perfect—and now officially a go-to travel training meal.

🧊 What I Used:

• 7.9 oz frozen cooked chicken breast

• 3 cups frozen seasoned veggies (brussels sprouts, carrots, broccoli, etc.)

• 1 cup frozen pre-cooked Spanish rice

I sautéed the chicken until golden, added the veggies, and let them caramelize just past done (almost burned but in the best way). The rice went into the microwave slightly longer than the instructions, spread thin on a plate for crispy edges. It reminded me of socarrat—not quite paella-grade, but good enough with a little imagination. 😊

🏔️ Simplify & Summit™ Takeaway

This is now a formula I’ll repeat everywhere I travel:

8 oz protein + 3 cups frozen veg + 1 cup carb = Fast, healthy, satisfying fuel.

Choose your protein (chicken, tuna, tofu), your veggies (any clean frozen mix), and your carb (rice, couscous, potatoes). Heat. Combine. Eat. It’s adventure life made simple.

💡 Notes:

• All my ingredients were already seasoned—next time, I’ll add spinach or mushrooms to dilute the salt.

• I prefer food’s natural flavor, so I go easy on seasoning. Add your own spin!
