I have a recipe that is 258 calories and is very filling, just not sure how to share other than cutting and pasting.

lots of steamed veggies with soy sauce lol.

gdr1976

My spicy veggie wrap:

1/5 of a container of firm tofu
2oz of ground hamburger style veggie protein
2 oz of sliced baby portabella mushrooms
3oz of broccoli slaw
1 Flax & Oat Bran Pita Bread or whole wheat wrap (add 40 calories if using wrap)
1 t margarine
1 t Sriracha sauce or your favorite hot sauce to taste.

Melt the margarine in a saute pan and get it hot. Add all the ingredients up until the Pita bread/wrap. Cook the vegetables, protein, and tofu until a light golden brown. Add in your hot sauce and mix well. Let cook an additional 30 seconds and serve in the pita or wrap.
ENJOY!
