Oriental Chicken and Zucchini
Yesterday I barbecued chicken in various marinades. One of them was Newman's Light Sesame Ginger Dressing. I wanted to make a meal tonight that included the chicken, so I threw some things together and here we have it!
Noodled zucchini, chopped carrots and celery sautéed in a little vinegar, garlic powder, and pepper. I added the chicken that was marinated in oriental salad dressing and then added sliced avocado and grape tomatoes. For the dressing I mixed Greek yogurt and the oriental dressing.
This plate full came out to be only about 250 calories! :)

Pumpkin Cookies
I was craving a cookie of some sort and was thinking of the ingredients I had...I searched online for ideas and I found one that would work! I had to improvise on a couple things, but they turned out excellent!
1 C pumpkin puree
1/4 C non fat vanilla Greek yogurt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp Nutella
2 C oats
Preheat oven to 300*. Combine all ingredients in a bowl until well mixed. Scoop a golf ball size onto a greased cookie sheet and press it down. Bake for about 15-17 minutes. I am experimenting on which turns out best...keeping them refrigerated or storing at room temp. This recipe would also be great adding raisins, nuts, mini chocolate chips. Super easy and delicious!
