6 Ways to Eat Healthy Without a Stove
These dog days of summer are sure to be a scorcher, so don't even think about turning on that oven. Many of us have become accustomed to eating hot meals, but you can stay cooler in the kitchen by turning your favorite out-of-the-oven entrees into delicious no-cook dinners. And you'll find that you're just as satisfied.
Try these meal ideas instead of those sizzling standards:
Instead of Grilled Chicken...Have a Vermont Chicken and Apple Wrap
Remove breast meat from pre-cooked rotisserie chicken. Spread a whole-wheat or spinach tortilla with low-fat honey mustard, then layer thin slices of green apple and chicken and roll up.
Instead of Steamed Shrimp... Have a Creamy Shrimp Sandwich
Defrost frozen shrimp. Chop and mix with celery and fat-free mayonnaise. Serve on a whole-grain roll with baby spinach leaves, sliced tomato and onion.
Instead of Fajitas... Have a Mexican Plate
Heat corn tortillas and layer with pre-grilled steak strips or lean roast beef, black bean dip, fresh green peppers, onions, lettuce, tomatoes and salsa; serve with gazpacho.
Instead of Crab Cakes...Have a Corn and Crab Salad
Mix canned crabmeat, canned yellow corn kernels, asparagus tips and grape tomatoes in a bowl; dress with 1 teaspoon olive oil, white wine vinegar and Old Bay seasoning.
Instead of Bean Soup...Have a Garbanzo Bowl
Rinse and drain canned chickpeas; toss with chopped red onion, chopped yellow bell pepper and broccoli florets. Sprinkle with oregano and 1 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese.
Instead of Roasted Turkey... Have a Thanksgiving Sandwich
Spread a whole-wheat pita with fresh horseradish; stuff with lean roasted turkey breast, romaine lettuce leaves and sliced canned sweet potatoes (packed in juice).
