⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆ - Low Cal Veggie Fried Rice - ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆
Rice?! Yes, rice! I know it's a common fear food, but it's full of fibre, which keeps you fuller longer. This was very easy to make, and you can easily replace vegetables with other ones you'd like. I'd recommend corn, onion, broccoli, or cabbage. It's also fully vegetarian.

- 1/3 cup cooked rice (67 cal)
- 1/8 cup canned chickpeas (26 cal)
- 1/8 cup green peas (8 cal)
- 1 tbsp egg white (8 cal)
- 2 tsp soy sauce (6 cal)
Cook chickpeas to desired texture. (I used a convection oven, which gave it some crunch.)
Cook carrots and peas to desired softness.
Scramble the egg white on medium heat, it should take approximately 30 seconds.
Add rice, chickpeas, carrot, and peas to the scrambled egg, turn heat to low.
Mix the ingredients together, and allow the rice to warm up. This should take approximately 30-60 seconds.
Put the mixture in a bowl, add soy sauce, and mix.
Note- Adding garlic powder and pepper to both the chickpeas and the carrots and peas adds a lot of flavour without adding calories
This was quite filling and delicious, I highly recommend trying it out!
