Healthy Hottie: Low Calorie Fried Rice

Delicious Fried Rice



Take your favorite vegetables such as chopped celery, mushrooms, corn, sun dried tomato (small pieces), carrots, peas, green onions, baby spinach. And add them to a wok, with brown rice on low-medium heat, and mixed them together. Add 1/4 cup chicken/vegetable broth, and mix it into the wok. Increase the heat to medium-high, and add 1 tbsp Soya Sauce and mix. Add 2 table spoon of olive oil and stir the rice constantly, on higher heat. Skip the salts and add some lemon juice and cayenne and or black pepper for some zest!

Eat it as a side dish with some grilled chicken or fish.





Healthy Hottie: Mushroom Saute Side



 








Heat up a non stick pan with a table spoon of olive oil, after the pan is hot, add a cup of chopped mushrooms, and stir them around so they don't stick to the pan.


After about two minutes of cooking, add a teaspoon of crushed garlic. Skip the salt and add some black pepper and cayenne pepper (add as much as you like)

Lower the heat, and cook till mushrooms are brown, and add a table spoon of fresh lemon juice.
