If your low carb I guess it would probably be a good idea to double the beans/peas and cut out the rice
I find that I need the carbs of some kind to fill me up for the whole night - but it would go as well with bread or probably cous cous. I have tried it with pasta, but I don't like the mix of textures that gives....0 -
Great group idea. I don't know if I am doing this right...by just posting a new food idea. But I have been enjoying Fage plain nonfat Greek yogurt with sugar free Torani vanilla syrup. I don't usually eat sugar substitutes. But this one works to give the yogurt a less sour taste. And you only need a little bit of syrup. The Greek yogurt is high in protein, of course.
Try it!0 -
