Get your meal prep on with these delicious Hawaiian Chicken Noodles Bowls made with shredded chicken, tons of veggies, and rice noodles!
Happy Fridayyyyyy! Guess what I’m doing today? DRIVING TO MILWAUKEEEEEE. I’m sure you think I’m absolutely crazy when it comes to travel, but I wouldn’t have it any other way at this point in my life. No pets, no kids, no house…time to travel! I’m sure once I hit my 30’s it may slow down a bit (MAY), but for now this is how I like it. Honestly even when I have kids in my life I foresee lots of travel. I moved around quite a bit as a kid (we lived in 5 states by the time I was in 4th grade!) and my parents took us on lots of travel adventures. I think this really helped mold me into the person I am today. Side note: I love love and I try and live as open-mindedly as possible. I feel like the world is going bat shit crazy and the best thing we can do at this point is love each other. IS THAT SO DANG HARD?

Speaking of love. I LOVE MY BLOGGING FRIENDS. I feel like it’s been forever since I did a group post and this month the theme is SHREDDED CHICKEN. If I could get each and every one of these recipes delivered to me, that would be grrrrrrrrrreat.

- Meat
- Veggies

It’s how we roll at Fit Foodie HQ. Plus- it’s almost crock-pot season, so I figured I’d jump on that bandwagon and get that guy out of storage. Good news- he didn’t rust one bit!

Cannot see answers to questions re cooking of chicken ie is it cooked dry or with stock or water and on high or low.? Please would you clarify cooking instructions. Thank you
Once the chicken has been shredded and the ingredients for the sauce has been added, does it go back in the crockpot for a couple of hours? The instructions don’t list the total amount of time in the crockpot and and what temps.
This recipe is an absolute winner! The only modification we made was serving it with rice instead of rice noodles. My husband even said it was the first dish where he liked kale (WIN!!!)!!
The directions for the chicken in the crockpot are confusing, it doesn’t say to add water or chicken stock.
GAH these bowls are to die for!!!! I can’t wait to make it!
You should serve bowls at your wedding. 😀
