I am always making new dishes for dinner that are great sources of good carbs for energy, greens for fiber and for protein right now they only meat I eat is usually organic chicken breast or turkey/chicken ground meat. Tonight for dinner I used organic lean chicken, some sweet potato fries and spinach with onion and topped my chicken with Organic Valley mexican shredded cheese. It was delicious!
These fries I found in the produce section at Shop Rite. They come in a plastic container and already pre-sliced. To make these I sprayed them with extra virgin olive oil and used some no-MSG seasonings. Then I placed on a baking sheet and put in the over for 30 minutes on 375 degrees.
The lemon and pepper added a bit of a kick and the light olive oil helped to keep them soft but not soggy or oily.
For my protein I used organic lean chicken breast and cut it up into cubes to put in a skillet. I used extra virgin olive oil and some Walden Farms Italian dressing. I also used some seasonings as well, but no salt.
For leafy greens I went with spinach and sauteed it in a non-stick pan and then added in some minced organic garlic to cut the flavor.
On top of my chicken I put some Organic Valley Mexican blend cheese. This is organic and absolutely delicious. I use this also in my daily morning omolettes!
Why this recipe is great?
It gives you a good amount of protein (good protein from organic chicken!)
Good carbs from the sweet potato to give you energy (so many people think you need to cut out carbs, so false!)
Fiber to help you stay full and regular in the spinach
No salt to prevent bloating and water retention, instead use no MSG spices and garlic
