Spicy Mustard Seed Stir Fry




When you make an attempt to change the way you eat, particularly if you're trying to diet, portions can sometimes seem small. But don't be tempted to pile more on your plate - eat first and you can always add more. If your plate is full to begin with though, you're likely to eat it even if you're not hungry.
This dish is a case in point where it can at first seem like there is not enough - trust me, it's filling enough.

Ingredients
Birds eye chilli, finely chopped (use as much/little as you like)
Garlic, finely chopped
Broccoli, chopped
tomatoes, chopped
2dsp of chick peas
red pepper, chopped
1tsp of mustard seeds
sprinkle of sesame seeds
tamari or soy sauce to taste
orange segment

Saute the chilli, garlic in the juice of the orange - add a bit of water if needed to prevent it burning and becoming acrid. Add the veggies with the tamarai or soy sauce to taste. Cook until softened but the veg should still have bite.
Serve with quinoa if you are on the first four weeks of Fitbitch or with an omelette if you are on the maintenance.
