13Crispy Baked Egg Rolls
0 comments
Here is a vegetarian snack that I think most people will really love. A lot of people love egg rolls, and why not? They're delicious. Unfortunately they are usually filled with a lot of calories and things that you do not want to ruin your good day of being on plan! So, here it is..a baked egg roll that only holds some seafood! Nice!
INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp. oil
16 oz. bag of coleslaw mix
4 green onions, chopped
1 1/2 cup bean sprouts
1 tbsp. white wine
2 tbsp. oyster sauce
2 tbsp. soy sauce
8.5 oz. can tiny shrimp
1 tbsp. cornstarch
20 egg roll wrappers
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
2. Heat oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Add coleslaw, green onions, bean sprouts, wine, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and shrimp. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes, until cabbage is wilted. Mix cornstarch with 1 tbsp. cold water and add. Stir for about 1 minute, until sauce is thickened.
3. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Place 1/4 cup of the mixture on the middle of an eggroll wrapper, turned like a diamond.
4. Fold the bottom corner up, over the filling. Fold in the two sides, then roll upwards. Put a dab of water on the corner to help it stick. Place on the pan seam down.
5. Repeat until you run out of the mixture, about 20 rolls. Eggrolls can be close, but not touching. Spray the tops with cooking spray and bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown. Serve with sweet & sour sauce or spicy mustard.

Stuffed bell peppers are a fantastic meal if you are not feeling like having any meat with your dinner or you feel like something spicy. My mom used to make these type of meals and I used to love it!

1 red bell pepper, halved and seeded
1 yellow bell pepper, halved and seeded

8 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon herb vinegar, or to taste

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil flavored cooking spray.
2. Place the bell pepper halves open side up in the prepared baking dish. In a medium bowl, toss together the cherry tomatoes, basil and garlic. Fill each pepper half with a handful of this mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.

18Cream of tofu and broccoli
Here is something different for the site. Tofu! I have never had tofu but have always wanted to give it a shot. Unfortunately, every time I go to grab it I always put it back thinking, "what if I don't like it, it would be a waste". So, I put it back saving it for the next person that could put it to use. I love cream of broccoli, so cream of tofu and broccoli is intriguing to me. Maybe someday I will pick up that tofu and put it in my cart and give it a shot. Until now, you tell me how this recipe comes out.
INGREDIENTS
4 cups Broccoli
2 1/2 cups 2%milk
3 cloves garlic
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/3 block extra firm tofu
DIRECTIONS
Prepare all ingredients and let simmer for 3 to 4 hours. Makes 6 1-cup servings.
It is pretty easy to put together. The longest time you are going to have is it simmering
Have fun!

I have seen the commercial for the Discovery Health body challenge for awhile now and finally decided to check it out. So far, it seems pretty awesome. You get meals planned out for you. Although some of the meals that they planned out for me today seemed a bit...far fetched because I did not have a lot of it just in my cupboard which is what I like recipes to have. You are given a exercise regime and instructions how to do them. You can pick your goal weight for the first 8 weeks and talk with other people. I haven't committed to fully trying it yet, signing up is the first part.
