Preparation
0/5 steps complete
Prepare the base: red lentil pasta. Warm or sear cooked chicken breast until the edges look browned and appetizing.
Cook or prep garlic mushrooms, green beans separately so the side keeps its texture.
Brush basil pesto lightly over the protein so it seasons the main bite without soaking the rice or vegetables.
Let hot food cool for a few minutes, then arrange the main, the side, and the fresh or crunchy pieces in separate groups so every bite keeps its texture.
Set aside basil pesto before reheating. Warm only the cooked components, uncovered, for 45 to 75 seconds.
