Tried a new recipe from the Weight Watchers site and it was really good. It was actually very easy to make, tasted awesome- Bear ate it and asked for seconds, which means it must be pretty tasty- and is only 3 points per serving.

The rice took the most time to cook, the rest went very easy. The website says it takes about 13 minutes to make this- not counting the rice, that may be longer than it actually takes. Two thumbs way, WAY up for this one.

To quote my man, Samuel L Jackson, this was tasty and good. Also, cheap.
