Cut the broccoli, potatoes, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. In a mixing bowl, toss the vegetables with balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Place the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes until they are tender and lightly browned. Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. In a separate pan, cook the chicken breast until it's fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Once the vegetables and chicken are done, divide them into meal prep containers and add a handful of cashews for some crunch. Store in the refrigerator and enjoy throughout the week.
2. German Sausage Stir-Fry with Cashews:
Slice the German sausages into bite-sized pieces.
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sausages to the skillet and cook until they are browned. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set them aside. In the same skillet, add the broccoli, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes. Stir-fry for a few minutes until they are crisp-tender. Add the sausages back to the skillet and stir in a splash of balsamic vinegar. Toss in a handful of cashews and stir to combine. Once everything is heated through, divide the stir-fry into meal prep containers and refrigerate.
3. Cashew Crusted Chicken with Balsamic-Glazed Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the potatoes into wedges and toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for about 30-35 minutes until they are golden and crispy. Meanwhile, crush the cashews into small pieces using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then coat them with the crushed cashews. In a skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat and cook the cashew-crusted chicken until it's cooked through and the cashew coating is golden. In a separate small saucepan, heat balsamic vinegar over low heat until it reduces and thickens slightly. Divide the cashew-crusted chicken and balsamic-glazed potatoes into meal prep containers, and store them in the refrigerator.
