Yummy, full of fiber and veggies!! This is a great meal to make after a long day at work.
Try adding ground turkey or chopped, grilled chicken breast for some added protein (would affect the caloric value, and the vegetarian status). Or perhaps some canellini or black beans instead!! Yummy, full of fiber and veggies!! This is a great meal to make after a long day at work.
