I made this in my rice cooker yesterday: I set the timer and wandered away from it for a few hours. When I came home, the whole house smelled wonderful! Add a drizzle of good quality olive oil to finish it or wrap it in a tortilla for a very mobile lunch.
Serves 5 for dinner, more as a lunch box filler.
I love this recipe because it is 3 easy ingredients heated together and you're eating in 15 minutes max. If you are like me, you try to cook on the weekend and have stuff you can throw together when you get there. If you have the time, you can cook the rice, it just adds time.
Recipe is modified from my grandmother's recipe. Goes great with blueberries, or topped with lowfat cool whip and sliced strawberries.
Vegetarian pesto spaghetti - easy to make and healthy! From Vegetarian Times Low-Fat & Fast cookbook, page 42
There's oatmeal pancakes listed, but they don't use skim milk. So I used skim milk, and M&Ms instead of chocolate chips.
Kale and beets are both packed with nutrients. Steaming them lightly will retain more nutrients. They can be served with a light drizzle of balsamic vinegar or your favorite salad dressing.
This dish worked out really well, and I was surprised at the low calories per serving. The mustard greens are a nice mix of textures with the stems and leaves cooked together. Its very filling and full of leafy green goodness!!! This could easily become a main course by adding some tofu or chicken to the stir fry. We had it with a side of grains and some pan seared Ahi Tuna.
You can really add any veggie you want, just re-calculate the recipe for calories!
Toss with whole wheat pasta for a delicious, and healthy dinner! For those who eat meat, add grilled chicken.
Kimchi's sour flavor goes away when it's broiled or barbecued. Serve this alongside bulgogi or other Korean barbecued meats. The kimchi gets really sweet and smoky. I can eat the entire pan by myself!
This slaw has all the creaminess you crave, with a boost of protein and a tangy flavor from the tahini, which pairs well with the fresh herbs.
During a trip to the Turkish coast, my friends and I gobbled down vegetarian bulgur "meatballs," called yalanci cig kofte. "Yalanci" means liar because the bulgur and potatoes are used instead of raw meat, as in the original recipe.
This is a family favorite brunch dish that I used to make only for holidays. The original appeared in Gourmet April 1999; this is my modified version. I have a person who refuses to eat cheese, but others may want to add a little grated asiago.
