A light, satisfying (and easy) meal

-

When he wanted something fast, light and tasty, my husband’s go-to was always lean lemon turkey from My Fit Foods. He often had a few of the packaged meal containers in the fridge.

And I would sneakily graze on them one spoonful at a time.

Since My Fit Foods closed a few years ago, we set about re-creating the dish, and I think we’ve landed on something solid.

If you’re not familiar with the prepared meals chain and this particular dish, it’s a good one. This recipe is lean, zesty and quick and easy to make.

Our version doubles down on the asparagus, so it’s more vegetable-heavy than the original. In all, it’s a wholesome meal that I think you’ll find light but satisfying.

Give it a try and, as I start looking ahead to my next food feature, send me any smoothie recipes (particular­ly ones with vegetables) that you love. Send them my way at marcishari­f.com.

Until then, I hope this helps you solve at least one day of the “what should we have for dinner?” debate.

Enjoy!
