« This week = total wash | Main | Week 3: Can we get a do-over? »
My get fit-n-healthy plans may have come to a shuddering halt this week. But let me reiterate this here and now: I will not give up.
As soon as I can do mild activity without getting dizzy, I am going back to the gym. And tonight, I am cooking our now favorite chicken and veggie stiry-fry (delicious and low in fat!)
Normally, I would let a week of stalled progress get me down. But not this time. I'm gonna beat the belly!

Can you share your chicken & stir fry recipe?

Sure. Here's what we do. It's pretty simple, as we're not expert cooks.
Ingredients:
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast diced
(260 calories, 3 grams fat)
6 oz. Eat Smart Vegetable stir-fry mix
(includes fresh cut broccoli, snow peas, carrots, red cabbage - 50 calories, 0 fat)
2 tbsp. Kikkoman Stir-Fry Sauce
(20 calories per tbsp., 0 fat, 520 mg of sodium)
2 cups rice (410 calories, 1 gram fat)
Simply dice chicken and brown in a large pan. Drain any excess fat or water.
Add stir fry mix and stir fry sauce and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
Serve over rice.
Divided into two equal servings the whole thing is 380 calories and 2 grams of fat per serving. And that would be two very large servings. We usually have a bit left over.
You can also steam the vegetables seperately -- any vegetables you like, really -- if you don't like them stir fried with the sauce and the chicken.
We think it's pretty delicious.
