Great recipes are also simple recipes, at least in my book. In order to qualify they have to use only a few ingredients, be easy to make, yet be nutritious and economical. When you find one that fills that bill, please make it often and enjoy!
Ingredients
1chicken breast (112 grams), cut into
small chunks
1 stalk (25 grams) of broccoli, sectioned
4-6 large fresh mushrooms (45 grams), whole
1/4 cup baby carrots (25 grams)
1/4 cup cauliflower Note: the veggies were purchased as a mix)
1/4 cup cauliflower Note: the veggies were purchased as a mix)
Salt and pepper to taste
Using a steamer, place the carrots in
first and steam for about 2 minutes. Next, I added in the rest of the
ingredients and steamed them for about 12 minutes.
After checking the veggies for doneness, I removed them to a serving dish and seasoned to taste. See! A very easy greasy sort of recipe! Serves 2.

STATS: The cost breakout for
this meal was .90 for the chicken, $1.50 for the mushrooms, and $1.00 for the
broccoli, carrot and cauliflower mix.. Therefore the cost per serving was $3.40 divided by 2 = $1.70. Not bad! The calories per serving
were also pretty good at about 350.
And the taste? Well, the meat tasted like chicken with the veggies tasting like veggies! Duh. (Sorry, I get flippant from time to time). The taste was great! This meal scored a solid 8 on a scale of 10.
