Most certainly!
I sometimes vary it up depending on what I have...
This makes between 2-3 servings....just be sure to check the points on your noodles, because I find that they vary a lot...
- Cook 1/2 a package of wide rice noodles (the kind I use are about 5 points per serving, which works out to a bit over 1.5 cups...I don't eat a full 1.5 cups of noodle, though, so I count it as 4 when calculating the final points value of the recipe)
While the noodles are cooking...
- In a non-stick frying pan, cook 1 diced chicken breast (4 points) OR 1 cup of cubed tofu (3 points) OR 1 c shrimp (2 points). You can use 0 point cooking spray, a few Tbsps of chicken/vegetable broth, or 1 tsp of oil if you have the points. I usually use broth because it helps the veggies cook faster.
- Add 1 sliced red pepper and 1 cup snow peas- cook until tender.
- Add approx 3 cups of beansprouts- cook for approx 1 min, mixing constantly.
-Drain noodles and rinse under hot water to get rid of excess starch. Add to pan with protein and veggies.
- Pour sauce over top and mix
Sauce:
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce (0)
- 2 Tbsp natural chunky peanut butter (4)
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 c. ketchup (1) - i know this sounds weird, but a lot of restaurants do this!
- fish sauce to taste (if you like it)
- For the Canadians, I sometimes use the LIGHT President's Choice Memories of Szechwan peanut sauce (1 point for 2 Tbsp)
Cook for a few mins to let the sauce absorb; Garnish with lime wedges and fresh cilantro.
So, for approx 1.5 cups it works out to:
4 for the noodles
2 for the protein (using chicken)
2 for the sauce
8 points
I hope I've remembered everything...I usually just do it from memory as I'm going along
What did you used to eat regularly before you found out their WW points?
