Vegetables with Peanut Sauce, Pizza Filed under ( Healthy, Italian, peanut butter, Vegetables )

Happy (almost) Friday! Hope you had a good one! After leaving work today, I got started on prepping dinner. I am a big believer in cooking or prepping food when you have time. This helps me to avoid eating junk just because I'm starving and can't wait for dinner! For me, I made Veggies with Peanut Sauce. I modified Rachel Ray's peanut sauce just a bit to come up with this single serving mix:

For the Veggie's, mix (feel free to play with this and use whatever you have on hand):
1-2 servings stir fry veggie mix (broccoli slaw, broccoli, snap peas)
1 bell pepper chopped
1/3 cup leftover spaghetti squash

For the sauce, whisk together:
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter, slightly melted in the microwave
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil

Mix sauce with veggies, top with sesame seeds. Serve cold.


I consumed this bowl of deliciousness after I taught 45 minute Body Step and took 45 minute Body Pump with an apple and 1/2 a plum:

Before class, for Josh I prepped a pizza. I used this White Whole Wheat Pizza Dough recipe from 101 cookbooks, and topped it with a mixture of equal parts tomato sauce and buffalo sauce, mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, and buffalo chicken breast from the deli counter:

Josh baked it up when he got home at 400 degrees for 12-16 minutes:

I also made him a side salad of spinach, walnuts and plum topped with just a little olive oil.

Yummy!

I am SO thrilled its almost Friday. What are you doing this weekend?
