WEEKLY WEIGH-IN
October is Vegetarian Awareness Month. And these amazing, guilt-free
veggie recipes will please EVERYONE -- even die-hard meat lovers. We
promise...
Southwest Burritofest!
(1 burrito: 190 calories, 5.5g fat, 772mg sodium, 39g carbs, 20.5g fiber, 4.5g
sugars, 14.5g protein = 3 Points)
The second we first bit into this black bean patty during our Gardenburger
taste test, we had fantasies about this burrito!
Ingredients:
1 Gardenburger Black Bean Chipotle Veggie Burger
1 La Tortilla Factory Whole Wheat Low-Carb/ Low-Fat Tortilla; Large Size
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
2 slices tomato
1 tbsp. fat-free sour cream
2 tbsp. salsa
hot sauce (optional)
Directions:
Microwave or grill your veggie patty according to the directions on the box
(we prefer ours grilled...with nonstick cooking spray, of course!). Spread
sour cream on your tortilla. Cut veggie patty into bite-sized pieces or strips.
On one half of the tortilla, place lettuce, tomatoes, and veggie patty pieces.
Top with salsa, and roll up your burrito. If you're brave, add some hot sauce.

This crispy, fiber-rific, protein-packed pizza will please veggie-mongers and
meat eaters EVERYWHERE! Eat one to celebrate National Pizza Month (there
are only a few days left!).

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Thaw crumbles in the microwave for 30
seconds. Bake tortilla for 5 - 6 minutes on each side, or until slightly crispy.
Remove tortilla from oven and spread on tomato sauce. Next, sprinkle on
crumbles and top evenly with cheese. Return pizza to the oven for
approximately 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted. Use a pizza cutter or a
sharp knife to cut into slices.

My Big Fat Greek Pita
(Entire pita: 205 calories, 1g fat, 485mg sodium, 43g carbs, 12g fiber, 10.5g
sugars, 15g protein = 3 Points)
This filling pita pays homage to Greek cooking (without all the oil!). HG Tip!
If you can find it, a little bit of fat-free feta works GREAT with this recipe...
Ingredients:
1 Western Bagel Alternative Pita
2 oz. Fage Total 0% Greek Yogurt
1 small onion; sliced
1/2 cup sliced red and green peppers
2 cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder
red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions:
In a small dish, combine yogurt with salt, pepper, oregano and garlic powder
(season to taste). For some added spice, add red pepper flakes. In a skillet
sprayed with no-cal cooking spray, cook onions and peppers over medium
heat for 5 7 minutes. Add spinach and tomatoes, and cook until spinach
leaves have lost their volume. Remove from heat, and mix veggies with
yogurt sauce. Cut pita in half (toast if desired) and stuff with veggie
mix.
