    Switch to chicken thighs. They have more taste and texture because they have fat.

    First, you must realize that you do not have to eat like this ^ for results.


    There are literally thousands of different meal ideas. Teach yourself how to cook by looking at YouTube videos, reading books, asking your parents, etc. ~ Don't be a slave to chicken and brown rice.

    Crockpot shredded taco chicken recipe:

    Cook chicken in the crockpot with some salsa. When the chicken is done take it out and shred it with 2 forks.

    Put the chicken back in with desired amount of salsa, taco seasoning, and corn/peas. Add rice if you want the carbs or calories. Let it cook a fair bit more. Enjoy :)

    There are plenty of rub recipes out there that are 0 calories ( you may have to watch the sodium content tho), Lemon and garlic are great seasonings. Definitely search for low carb or 0 carb chicken breast recipes and you'll find plenty of ideas out there.

    I prefer thighs too but I am doing breast right now. Mccormick website offers some ideas to mix your own seasonings depending on your taste. I like the Trader Joe's brown rice medley over regular rice. And I prefer grilling over cooking inside.
