    OK thanks. So many opinions on things and with coaches telling so many things is great to hear how everyone does it.

    It was delicious! Even my husband ate it I modified a recipe someone else had posted here:

    Bean Sprout Chicken Chow Mein
    Serves 3

    1 Tbsp olive or sesame oil
    24 ounces of chicken breast or thighs, cut to bite size pieces
    1 cup chopped onion
    1 cup celery chopped into large bite size pieces
    3 garlic cloves, crushed
    ½ cup fat free chicken broth (or homemade)
    3 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce or Bragg’s aminos
    ½ tsp ground ginger
    3 cups Bean Sprouts
    Dash red pepper flakes (optional)
    Chopped green onion for garnish

    Slightly heat olive oil pan and add chicken; cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring to cook evenly.
    Add onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add celery and garlic and cook until tender crisp, 3-5 minutes.
    Add chicken broth, soy sauce/aminos, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if you want), bring to a simmer. Turn heat down and let simmer about 5 minutes, until the liquid has reduced by about half.
    Turn heat up to a boil, and add bean sprouts. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the sprouts are warmed and have softened.
    Serve hot, garnish with chopped green onion.
    YUM-I'm definitely trying that tomorrow for dinner! Thank you for posting and thank you to the poster who asked you about it

    Got caught up at church today, ended up getting stuck for lunch and I had used my "emergency" packet from my purse a few days ago at work. Good news, there was a Qdoba right nearby, and I had looked into their menu before - you can do a naked salad with the grilled veggies and Pico de Gallo and it is totally on plan!

    Breakfast: Proti Diet honey nut soy cereal, 2 oz Pure Protein vanilla shake; coffee w/2 oz Pure Protein vanilla shake

    Lunch: Qdoba naked salad w/grilled veggies and pico de gallo, ProtiDiet hazelnut bar

    Dinner: Garlic Rosemary crockpot roast beef, 1 cup rutabaga; 1 cup sliced jicama with cinnamon and WF caramel sauce for dessert!

    Snack: Health Wise vanilla cappuccino in coffee
