I’ve heard it said that as a Profile member, you either are a fan of the chili meal replacement or the sloppy joe mix, but usually not both. I’ve tried both now and I definitely love the sloppy joe mix! It has an almost sweet taste to it, just like a good sloppy joe should.
I made mine over a bed of cauliflower rice and added some shredded cheddar cheese on top for my fat. I gobbled this up and I’ll probably get a box of these when I have my next appointment! Yum!
I received a sample of the chili from my coach last week and I haven’t had a chance to try it until today. I like my chili with beef and beans so I was afraid this might be a tough sell. When I opened the pouch I was pleasantly surprised with a bold wave chili spice smells!
If you make the chili according to direction you probably won’t feel even remotely full. I added some cooked cauliflower rice, leftover fajita veggies and some shredded cheddar cheese.
I was slightly disappointed in 2 things: the small portion of beans (I think I had 3?) and the need for salt. I always add salt to the creamy chicken soup meal replacement too, so maybe I should just calk it up to my taste buds! All in all I’d eat it again with the veggies. It certainly filled me up!
I miss pizza, it’s true. We went to Aldi last night and all I wanted was pizza and pizza ingredients. I found turkey pepperoni and got a little excited! We made this one up, and I’ll share what we did.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Sauté the cauliflower rice until tender with the onion, 1 clove minced garlic and Italian seasoning. Place the peppers in a foil lined pan and fill with the cauliflower rice and onion mixture. We sautéed mushrooms separately for some family members, but you could put them in there too. Bake the peppers for 15 minutes or until the peppers are tender. Add a spoonful of pizza sauce to each pepper. Add the pepperoni and provolone to the top of each one, then bake again for 15 minutes or until the cheese is golden.
You could certainly add pepperoncini peppers if you like some spice, or whatever other vegetables you’d like! I’m also not sure if turkey pepperoni is “on plan” but I’m calling it “turkey sausage,” which is right on the list of lean protein! Ask your coach if you’re worried about fat content. I like the turkey pepperoni because it’s not greasy but that great flavor of regular pepperoni is still there! 
It’s not terribly pretty, but it’s pizza enough for me!
We’re running a little low on groceries over here, so tonight’s dinner was the remnants in the refrigerator and freezer! We made a decent meal out of it and one that I’m happy to put in our regular dinner rotation!
Cook the chicken until it’s halfway cooked, then add the vegetables to your wok or frying pan. Add the soy sauce to the pan and mix well. In another pan, sauté and steam the cauliflower.
My family enjoyed the stir fry with real rice while I got in my full 2 cups of veggies from the cauliflower!
