:drinker: Here's an awesome recipe to try!
Whole Foods Market's
Vegetable Lo Mein!
Ingredients:
3/4 pound lo mein noodles or whole wheat spaghetti
Sesame oil (start with a small amount)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
4 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
1/3 cup sliced scallions (green onions)
1 cup julienne carrot (2 large)
1 cup thinly sliced celery (1-2 stalks)
1 cup thinly sliced red onion (1 medium)
3/4 cup fresh bean sprouts
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Method:
Cook the lo mein noodles in boiling salted water until al dente. Cool. Toss lightly with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Combine the hoisin and soy sauces in a small bowl and mix well.
In a wok or a large skillet heat 1 tablespoon canola oil and quickly sauté the ginger, garlic and scallions until they release aroma, then add the carrots, celery and red onions and briefly sauté before adding the bean sprouts, about 2 minutes.
In a separate medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon canola oil and sauté the noodles. When they are hot and look pan-fried or lightly browned, add them to the other sautéed ingredients in the large pan. Add the soy-hoisin mixture and stir to coat. Sprinkle with the chopped cilantro and serve.

Oatmeal banana cookies that taste like banana nut muffins.
1 banana
1 cup of old fashion oats
1 oz of walnuts
15g of dark chocolate chips
First you mash the banana. Add in the raw oats, walnuts & dark chocolate chips.
You may add cinnamon or liquid stevia.
Place on a baking sheet in little balls & bake on the oven at 400c
They should be in there about 10 min (not sure on how long I kinda eyeball it)
Servings depends on the size of the cookies.
It's high on calories but it's a good snack to keep you sane when you feel like eating something sweet
Old fashion oats are great for lowering cholesterol as well. It's one easy way to incorporate oats in your diet.0 -
I love pizza and try to find ways to make a healthier calorie friendly version of it.
The one I've been making recently is with flat out wraps.
It's only 100 calories for a good size wrap.
You'll need
1 flat out wrap
1 serving of tomato/pizza sauce of your choice
1-2 servings of 2% Mexican blend shredded cheese (depending how much cheese you like)
And toppings of your choice. I usually just put chicken for protein or turkey sausage.
Place flat out on a baking sheet and bake for like 7 min or until toasted
Take out the oven and put sauce, toppings and cheese and place back in the Oven. When cheese is melted it's ready.
Love it so much. And if your really craving pepperoni you can buy the veggie pepperoni. Taste pretty good.0 -
Plain Greek yogurt has a great amount of protein so I try to use it as much as possible.
Greek "ranch"
Take a spoonful of Greek yogurt(plain) and add some ranch powder. (Not sure what it's called but it's by hidden valley.) Greek yogurt to ranch powder ratio depends on the person & if it's too thick you can add a little bit of almond milk.
Proyo is protein yogurt
Plain Greek yogurt 1 cup
Half a scoop of protein powder of your choice
Top with fruits, nuts or whatever you want. It's the bomb.com and you can freeze it to make it like ice cream.
I use plain Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream.0 -
