Alright guys, it's recipe time! Yesterday I made dinner for my roommate and me. She wanted to try some of my healthier food, to see how good it was. Well, it was a hit! I made a delicious simple chicken salad over my even simpler carrot noodles. It's just a bonus that it's LOW CALORIE. :)
Here's what you'll need:
One large can of chicken breast. I think it's the 8 or 9 oz can.
1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese
1/2 a cubed avocado
2 cups of spinach cooked
seasoning of choice
3-5 Carrots
1/2 teaspoon per plate of Flax seed
1) Mix the chicken (after being drained), Cottage cheese, and avocado in a medium sized mixing bowl.
2) Mix until the chicken and avocado are smooth.
3) Add seasoning of choice, I added pepper, and sirracha. I'm pretty sure anything of you want will work.
4) Saute some spinach in a pan and add to the bowl
5) mix all together and tada! All done! :D
6)For the carrot noodles
I peeled about 3-5 carrots, depending on how thick your peeler peels and heated them up in a pan sprayed with cooking spray. If the peels are pretty thick it might take longer to reach the doneness you may like. I like mine to have a little bit of a crunch. I season those with pepper and a tiny bit of salt.
7)Top the dish with some flax seed, I do this for appearance and the omega 3s.
