So this will be a brief post -- which fits with the theme! Quick, easy, and HEALTHY dinner/lunch recipe. This takes me back to the days of my dorm room when I was limited with a microwave and small fridge to prepare healthy, affordable, easy recipes.
I purchased Amy's Light in Sodium Medium Chili a week or so ago when I saw it listed as one of the 100 Cleanest Packaged Foods I truly believe a good diet and health can be achieved by just eating clean/natural. This list is great for people like me who don't have the time or money to spend eating EVERYTHING straight from god's green earth and this chili was a great light in sodium packaged delight. I enjoy Amy's products so I knew I would like the Chili.
And digging through the pantry I also had a potato, through the fridge some plain non fat Greek yogurt. And that's it!
First I microwaved the potato - some microwaves have a potato button nowadays but here is a link to various ways to 'baked' in the microwave. Microwave 'Baked' Potato
Heated up the chili - put a dollop of Greek yogurt on top and TA DA! Healthy inexpensive easy dinner is served!
Servings: 1 - can be doubled, tripled, etc
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes (depending on potato size)
Ingredients:
-1 Potato
-1 Cup of Amy's Low Sodium Medium Chili
-2 Tablespoons Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt*
1. Scrub potato with warm water. Pierce potato with a knife or a fork
2. Put potato in microwave - select 'Potato' button or cook for 5 minutes. Continue this until the potato can be squeezed and feels soft.
3. Heat up a cup of Amy's Low Sodium Medium Chili
4. Assemble -cut potato lengthwise opening the potato. Pour Chili on top. Dollop with sour cream. ENJOY!
You can also add cheese, chives, hot sauce, whatever condiments you enjoy on a baked potato. Full of protein and fiber! Very filling meal.
*Omit the Yogurt or Replace with Vegan Sour Cream and meal becomes Vegan.
