Fast, AND guilt-free? How you ask?

Hey all! I'll start posting some recipes in between blog posts, until I figure a better way to organize them :)

Spring Rolls! Ingredients: Rice Paper "Julienned" Veggies Low Calorie sesame ginger soy dressing (or any low-calorie dressing you like) You can purchase this rice paper from just about anywhere. I find that the smaller pieces are better, not only because you get two sheets (which means two rolls) for 45 calories, they're also easier to wrap, and eat. The filling can be any type of veggie you would like. I like to use my Julienne Peeler (a must have!) to grate up some carrots, cabbage, zucchini, and whatever else I have hanging around. Also, most grocery stores will offer pre-cut veggies of this consistency. Veggies are "free" of points, so you can really eat away. I do tend to start counting them as 1 point/cup if I have more than 1 cup. Fill your sink or a large plate with hot water. Place the rice paper in the water until it is soft. Remove (CAREFULLY) and place on a clean cloth/small towel. Fill the middle with all your veggies. For folding these, I tend to start from the bottom, fold over once, then fold both sides ( as tight as you can) and finally  roll together. The rice paper is quite sticky so will stick itself together. As for the veggies inside, you could really add whatever you like, if you want to use some Tofu Noodles  (discussed in the blog) that would work as well with the veggies. This option is just the lowest calorie. As for the dip, I would choose something asian inspired, and low calorie, such as my favourite, trader joes sesame ginger soy dressing (25 calories per tbsp) Also, presidents choice makes a great low calorie low fat peanut sauce, which I usually dilute with a bit of vinegar :) Dip, and enjoy! Veggie Burgers, in Lettuce Wraps Ingredients: 1 Dr. Praegers mexican style veggie burger. Crispy lettuce wraps (as many as you want!) Small stir fry (onion, artichokes, or any other veggies you like) Another cleanse-friendly dinner. This was truly delicious, and because its so low-cal you can eat about 15 of the things! You'll come to discover.. I like Volume! This is a twist on my usual, bean "burrito" wraps, which I will add soon. Lettuce wraps- you could purchase any regular lettuce for this, as long as the pieces are big enough and don't break easily! Romaine preferably. I found these "crispy lettuce wraps" at Superstore, they're in the lettuce section- They are amazing! They keep in the fridge for much longer than regular lettuce, and they're crisp, firm and hold what you want them to hold without breaking- PERFECT! What we filled them with is probably my FAVOURITE veggie burger ever- its "Dr. Praegers" brand mexican veggie patties. You can buy these just about anywhere these days. Moderately expensive, unless your like me and stock up in the states :) Honestly they are the healthiest thing you could eat. Nothing artificial, all vegetables, and SO DELICIOUS. Oh and did I mention only 2 points each! I stirfried some frozen artichokes and onion with a bit of garlic, chopped some tomato, and put it all in the lettuce wrap. This made so many wraps I was eating for ages. And at the end of the day dinner was again, only 3 points total. Season with any burger type condiments, seasoning, and voila! The carb-free healthy alternative. Thanks for the patience with me uploading recipes, trust me, as soon as this cleanse is over and I get back to eating more of my regular food, the pictures/recipes will come!! Sorry about the weird formatting for this one, I'll try and fix this problem.
