  • 1/4 c. sliced black olives
  • Pita bread

  • 1/2 jalapeno, minced
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable broth
  • 1 c. canned pinto beans
  • 1 c. reduced-fat vanilla ice cream
  • 2 1/4 c. frozen, pitted cherries
  • 1 c. nonfat milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Make a Greek salad with chicken

    Make a Greek salad with chicken. Whisk olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and the red wine vinegar in a salad bowl. Add the chicken, lettuce, cucumber, tomato, red onion, feta cheese, and olives and toss. Serve with pita bread and hummus.

  2. Step 2

    Make sweet potato fries

    Make sweet potato fries. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and place 2 teaspoons canola oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch cayenne pepper, and the sweet potato wedges in a bowl and toss to coat. Then place on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, turn, and bake for 10 more minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Make spiced Pinto beans

    Make spiced pinto beans. Saute a clove of chopped garlic, jalapeno, white onion, and 1/2 teaspoon chili powder in 2 teaspoons canola oil until soft. Then add the broth, beans, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mash half of the beans with a fork and simmer until heated through. Then add the cilantro and serve hot.

  4. You can substitute water for the broth.

  5. Step 4

    Make a vanilla-cherry milkshake
