Chick Pea Stir Fry

Good afternoon!

Today is going along well…but I feel like I have gotten nothing accomplished! Wait, I did get something fabulous accomplished- I had a wonderful lunch with my sister in law and niece. :D It was so fun to catch up. I made us a lovely chick-pea stir-fry:

Chick Pea Stirfry

The Contents:

• 1 zucchini, peeled and chopped
• 1 organic carrot, peeled and chopped
• 2 red peppers, chopped
• 1 red onion + 1 sweet onion, chopped
• 2 handfuls pea pods
• 1.5 cup chick peas
• Sun Dried Tomato and Herb salt free seasoning
• freshly ground black pepper
• Fat free Italian dressing (Kraft)
• 1 tsp minced organic garlic

Going in:

Directions: Rinse, chop, peel veggies and throw into the skillet with 3-4 Tbsp Italian dressing. Add lots of sun dried tomato seasoning and ground pepper. Cook on medium heat, stirring often, for 15 mins.

My plate:

It was so so good! :D Nothing makes me happier than a meal full of veggies!

Wedding dress plan: I had bread on the table (buns), but I opted for another small portion of stir-fry instead of the bread. I figured the extra veggies would be more volume and fill me up more than a tiny piece of bread. My mid-morning snack was a handful of Amy’s Organic Crackers.
