Stouffers Fit Kitchen Meals and Bacon and Lime Roasted Brussels Sprouts Recipe!

As we are getting into the new year, I have been determined to eat more balanced meals.  However no matter how much I plan my meals or prepare ahead, I seem to frequently find myself in need of a great tasting, balanced meal that I can prepare quickly.  That’s why I try to always have a few STOUFFER’S® FIT KITCHEN™ meals in my freezer that I can make in a hurry.  Each meal takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and has a great balance of fat, protein, and carbohydrates.

Look for Stouffers Fit Kitchen Meals at Your Local Walmart!

You can chose from Bourbon Steak, Oven Roasted Chicken, Monterey Chicken, Cilantro Lime Chicken or one of their other fantastic varieties.  Each STOUFFER’S® FIT KITCHEN™ meal will help the busiest of people be able to prepare a balanced meal quickly and can be found at your local Walmart!

STOUFFER’S® FIT KITCHEN™ products are delicious and satisfying meals anyone can enjoy and sometimes I like to pair my STOUFFER’S® FIT KITCHEN™ meal with a side dish as well.  One of my favorites is my Bacon and Lime Roasted Brussels Sprouts, they are easy to make and can be cooked up in about as much time as the STOUFFER’S® FIT KITCHEN™ meal is in the microwave heating up.

Let me walk you through this tasty recipe and then I’ll include a printable recipe card below.
