BBQ Shredded Chicken Sandwich Recipe

This BBQ Shredded Chicken Sandwich Recipe is a tasty source of protein! It also makes the absolute best left overs! I love to grab the chicken out of the fridge to make a quick sandwich for lunch!

Another easy thing to do, is to freeze half of it and save it for a rainy day. You know those days where you don’t know what to make for dinner and you’re just hungry now?

Pull this out of the freezer, warm it up, make some sandwiches…and you are good to go my friend!

Fit Friday with Nichole

The sun is shining and I am sweating, but, yet, I some how keep forgetting to rehydrate. How is this even possible? Well, wait, I will tell you how it is possible. 

The kids have me running (driving) to and fro so much that I can’t remember to keep my head attached half the time. I get to drum lessons, ready to sit in the car for 30 minutes with my book and my water bottle only to find I have left them both sitting on the counter at home. 

Or sweaty child climbs in after soccer practice and drinks all of my water, leaving me high and dry. 

Each week I start with a renewed commitment to keeping water close by at all times, this week I realized I needed to add a reminder of why. Reminding myself of the importance helps with the priority list and the follow through. 

In the summer this seems to be extra true, maybe it is just because I let myself get dehydrated so much more in the heat.

My energy level is often the first reminder I get, unfortunately this is also the one I can easily ignore or I “fix” with the wrong go-to.

But now that we have the whys let’s remind ourselves of the hows.
