Meatless Monday
By admin | April 28, 2008
Today’s dinner was yummy! Thanks to Kalyn’s Kitchen- a great blog, I was able to combine the South Beach Phase One Diet with a vegetarian meal! Phase one only lasts two weeks but it can be hard to plan a vegetarian menu if you are trying to limit carbs. We had a great main course salad with a hummus dressing and a side of sauteed green beans and mushrooms.
Details:
Salad Ingredients
Romaine Lettuce
1 can of chickpeas
Sprinkle of feta cheese
2 Tbsp. of parsley
1/2 jar of kalamata olives
1 cup of baby carrots
Dressing (courtesy of Kalyen’s Kitchen- my recipe cut in half all the ingredients)
1/3 cup of hummus
2.5 Tbsp of olive oil
1.5 Tbsp of lemon juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
Put all ingredients in salad bowl, top with dressing, toss and enjoy!
Happy Meatless Monday!
