This was so yummy!

“Chicken” & Rice Bowl

• 1 cup of broccoli
• 1 cup of baby carrots
• 1 cup of minute rice
• Morning Star “chicken” patty
• I can’t believe it’s not butter (spray)
• lemon pepper 

Chop your veggies any way you’d like then steam them. Sprinkle a pinch of lemon pepper across the veggies. Cook the rice, and while it is hot spray the butter on it (as much as you think it needs, add to taste) and mix in just a small dash of lemon pepper. Add salt and pepper if needed. Cook your “chicken” patty and cut it into small squares. Stir together and enjoy! This is a very quick and easy meal!

losing-every-extra-pound:

Healthy Banana, Almond and Chocolate Ice Cream

Ingredients

• 3 very ripe bananas, peeled, cut into chunks and frozen
• ⅓ cup almond butter (can substitute peanut butter)
• ¼ cup bittersweet or dark chocolate chips
• chopped almond and chocolate for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. Place the bananas and almond butter (or peanut butter) into the blender. Begin blending and quickly increase speed to high. Once everything is slightly combined, stop and add the chocolate chips.  Turn the machine back on and again increase the speed to high.  In about 10-30 seconds, the sound of the motor will change and mounds should appear in the mixture.  Stop machine immediately or melting can occur. If using a food processor: In a food processor combine the bananas and almond butter.  Process until almost smooth.  Add the chocolate chips and process until well combined.  
2. Scoop into bowls, top with chopped chocolate and almonds, if using, and serve immediately. 

Serves two to three.

Note: You can also freeze the mixture to get a harder ice cream, but you may have to let it sit out and thaw for a minute or two before you’ll be able to scoop it.

The 40 Calorie Flour Tortilla

I made some home made guacamole to go with these. They’re pretty easy to make and delicious!

Market Comparison:

In terms of cost, I’m not sure as I’ve never bought tortillas from the store… But I imagine they do not cost 1 cent per tortilla. Nutritionally, 1 Flour Mission Tortilla is 150 calories… These are about a FOURTH of that. :)

Ingredients:

• 1/8 Teaspoon Salt
• .5 oz Water
• 1/4 Cup Flour
• 1/8 Teaspoon Baking Powder

Servings: Creates 2 Tortillas (1 Tortilla = 1 Serving)

Nutritional Facts:

• Calories Per Serving: 41.25 cal
• Fat (g) per Serving: 0.00 g
• Carbs (g) per Serving: 8.63 g
• Protein (g) per Serving: 1.13 g
• Sodium: 32.50 mg

Financial Facts:

Cost Per Serving is $0.01.

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix. Dough should combine in to a single ball. If this doesn’t happen, add a little more water incrementally until it does.
2. Cover the dough with a wet towel or cloth for ~15 minutes.
3. Split dough into two balls. Roll into round shapes.
4. Flour the counter.
5. Take each ball and roll out into a very flat circle.
6. Take each circle and place onto an ungreased skillet.
7. Cook over medium heat until tortilla starts to show brown spots.
8. Enjoy!

This is perfect, I assume it would work the same with wholewheat flour?
