This is the tastiest recipe you will find while being calorie conscious! I love the fact that I can have pasta too! You can substitute any vegetables you have on hand and even use frozen veges! Onion is awesome in this dish and so are fresh green beans!
If grilling is not an option, pan fry the breasts before you saute your veges.... Once the outsides are browned you can remove them and add them back to the pan to finish cooking when you are ready!
