    Replace the chicken with beans or tofu

    What exactly do you mean by 'healthy'? Low-fat, low-cal, low-carb, not fried, high nutritional value with/without worrying about fat/carb/cal content? (Not trying to be a smart a**, I really want to know. - not everyone's definition of healthy is the same)

    A recipe I like is black bean enchiladas:

    Corn tortillas (lightly sautéed- very little oil used)

    Stuff with refried black beans (high in fiber and protein)

    Cover with homemade or pre made enchilada sauce.

    Depending on how many enchiladas you eat, and how much sauce/beans are used the calories are usually pretty low. Sometimes I'll even add daiya cheddar on top and or tofutti sour cream. The only thing is, depending on the sauce, the sodium content may be high.

    Feel free to send me a message for more ideas, or try an Internet search for vegan recipes. Sometimes a recipe can give you your own ideas.

    I find it best to keep it whole food and simple. Smoothies in morning are great. I use pinterest alot for ideas. Check out my Instagram if you like Compassion_nate. All vegan food.
