<br><br>HG's Need-a-Fajita Chicken Bowl 
<br><br> 
<br><br>Bowling for Chicken  
<br><br> We love the idea of big bowls of food for one. But do they have to be fast-
<br><br>food-fatty and high in calories? Noooooooo! Read on for our latest 
<br><br>FANTASTIC recipe... the Need-a-Fajita Chicken Bowl! 
<br><br>
<br><br>Ingredients:
<br><br>2/3 cup cooked brown rice (prepared without added fat)
<br><br>1 tbsp. salsa verde (a.k.a. green salsa)
<br><br>1/2 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
<br><br>Squirt of lime juice
<br><br>3 1/2 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast, cut into small strips
<br><br>1/2 cup chopped red & green bell peppers 
<br><br>1/3 cup chopped onion
<br><br>1/2 tsp. dry fajita seasoning mix
<br><br>1/4 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
<br><br>2 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
<br><br>2 tbsp. (regular) salsa
<br><br>
<br><br>Directions:
<br><br>To make the cilantro sauce, combine salsa verde, cilantro, and lime juice in a 
<br><br>small bowl. Mix well and set aside.
<br><br>
<br><br>In another bowl, combine chicken, peppers, and onion, and sprinkle evenly 
<br><br>with fajita seasoning. Add 1 tbsp. water and mix well.
<br><br>
<br><br>Bring a pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add chicken-
<br><br>veggie mixture and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until 
<br><br>chicken is cooked through and veggies are tender. Remove from heat, stir in 
<br><br>black beans, and set aside.
<br><br>
<br><br>Place rice in a microwave-safe bowl. If needed, nuke until hot. Top with 
<br><br>chicken-veggie-bean mixture and cheese. If you like, nuke briefly to melt 
<br><br>cheese. Finish it off with salsa and cilantro sauce. Enjoy!

<br><br>HG Alternatives! Prefer white rice? Use that instead -- just subtract 2g fiber 
<br><br>from the recipe stats. And if you wanna save some time in the kitchen, buy 
<br><br>precooked chicken strips -- just sprinkle 3 oz. with half the seasoning before 
<br><br>cooking the veggies, and then add it to the pan just in time to heat it up. Yay!

<br><br>Jack in the Box's Southwest Chicken Bowl  
<br><br> 
<br><br>Hit the Road, Jack...  
<br><br> That JITB commercial where a bunch of office workers get bowl cuts is 
<br><br>funny, but there's nothing amusing about the stats on the food item they're 
<br><br>pitching. Here's a little info... The Southwest Chicken Bowl is full of veggies, 
<br><br>beans, and chicken (yay!); loaded with salsa (woohoo!); topped with full-fat 
<br><br>cheese (hmmm, wait...); doused in a sauce with double-digit fat grams 
<br><br>(STOP THAT!); and served over 400 calories' worth of rice (ACK!). Now you 
<br><br>see how a bowl of chicken, veggies, and rice ends up with over 700 calories 
<br><br>and nearly 20 grams of fat. But does it HAVE to be this way?! Noooo. Our 
<br><br>bowl has all of those delicious ingredients -- but leaner versions of 'em, and 
<br><br>the right amounts. So you'll still be eating a saucy, cheesy, zesty bowl of 
<br><br>awesomeness, but you'll be consuming about 330 fewer calories and a 
<br><br>FRACTION of the fat... less than 1/6th, to be more specific. And that's the 
<br><br>facts, Jack!
