    Vegetable "Fried" Rice

    Olive Oil (enough to saute vegetables)
    1 Green Pepper
    1 Red Pepper
    1 Onion
    1 Zucchini
    1 Carrots
    Bean Sprouts
    1 Head Broccoli
    Rice (Cook serving for 4)
    Soy Sauce (to taste - use low sodium to keep it healthy!)
    1 Tbsp. Minced Garlic

    Cut veggies to desired shape and size. Saute vegetable in olive oil until preferred tenderness . Add in garlic and soy sauce and let it absorb into the veggies. Cook the rice separately according to directions. Add rice into vegetable mixture stirring well. Add soy sauce to taste and enjoy!

    About 205 calories per serving, this serves my family (4 of us) and leaves some for leftovers! It's my dad's favorite!

    Add in meat or any other desired veggie to suit your tastes, its a delicious dish!

    In a large bowl combine chicken, chilies, onion, 1 cup cheese, 1/2 can enchilada sauce, sour cream & zucchini. Mix well.

    Pour the other half of the can of enchilada sauce on the bottom of your dish.

    Warm the tortillas, stuff them with the chicken mixture and roll them. Place them in your cooking dish. Repeat until all 18 tortillas are stuffed/rolled/placed in dish.

    Not sure if anyone has posted this already but I love this one and it's just under 300 calories per serving ....

    Ground turkey
    add garlic and half an onion while it is getting brown
    season with pepper and a little bit of salt (or whatever seasoning you like)
    a bag of broccoli (the 4 servings size)
    one large tomato diced
    one container of sliced mushrooms
    I like my food spicy so I add a green jalapeno pepper diced

    this is really easy to make and it's tasty =)

    sorry if I don't know the correct terminology but I hope you get it lol ;) ENJOY!!! :wink:
