Other Info

This recipe is highly adaptable, and can be customized to suit your own tastes. For example, as you see in the picture, I added a few snow pea pods to mine, in place of some of the mushrooms. For the recipe, you need 3 servings of vegetables and you should choose vegetables that are suitable to the weight loss phase you’re in, as long as it totals 3 servings (please note that the raw serving size for some vegetables is 1 cup, all of the ones I used are 1/2 cup vegetables). Also, in place of the 7 ounces of chicken breast, you could add 5 ounces of lean beef.
