Anna's WW Nite



We had weight watcher's at Anna's last night. Diana did hair, I cooked Indian bread,Bubbles begged for food, Anna made her yummy curry veggies, and we watched KOQ (King of Queens) on DVD. Hello Heaven! Anna made this recipe up and it was so delish. I got the bread recipe from a ww cookbook, and we served it with Chipotle style rice (recipe on previous entry- scroll down).
Anna's Vegetable Curry
Ingredients:
1 can of low fat coconut milk
1 cup cauliflower, chopped
3 white potatoes (cubed)
1 1/3 cup baby carrots
1 samall can of peas
1 green green bell pepper, chopped
1 handful cilantro, chopped
1 tsp.salt
1 tsp. pepper
1-2 tsp. cumin
1 pkg curry mix of choice (i used taste ofAsiaaIndiann curry)
Directions:
In a large pot, Sautee veggies in ff vegetable oil spray for 5 minutes. Add salt, pepper & cumin (I sprinkled enough to cover the veggies). Stir veggies for a minute or so. Add low fat coconut milk and curry paste. Let it cook on medium heat for 25 minutes. Add cilantro last to bring out a nice flavor. Serve with rice, enjoy!
Serving size, about 1 cup. Estimated points value is 2-3 points.

Chipati Indian Bread (basically a wheat version on naan is how it turned out)
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup warm water
1 tsp. salt
Directions: In medium mixing bowl, combine both flours and salt. Form a well in the center and add warm water. Mix (Knead) dough with hands 7-10 minutes (I recommend adding 1 tsp of veg. oil with the water to moisten the dough a lil). Set aside and cover, let sit 10 minutes. Split dough into 12 sections. Form sections into balls with your hands.Rolle each ball into a flat, round piece about 6 inches wide. Heat a skillet (I added a lil ff veg. oil spray for each piece) on medium heat and place onepiecee on at a time. Let cook at least 1 min., the top should bubble a little and the bottom should become browned. Flatten each side with a spatula as it cooks. You should cook each side 1-2 minutes. Just eyeball it to see that it's done. Pile em up on a plate be carefull, they are super hot when you take them off the skillet) and serve with curry veggies.
1 point per piece.
