Chinese Delight!
My friends and I have organised a nice Christmas catch up before the mad dash to Christmas day really takes off and we have no time to relax in the living room with a glass of wine and a mince pie.
One of my friends suggested we order in Chinese take-out which at first sounded to me like a yummy idea but when we hung up the phone, I started to think about the extra calories that I wouldn’t really appreciate before my Christmas do. That and the fact that I have bought an elegant but slim fitting little black dress I must fit into.
I decided to look up low fat and low calorie options for my Chinese Christmas take-out and discovered that chow mein is probably one of the lowest in fat Chinese entries, which is good because it’s one of my favourites.
I will be sharing food with my companions anyway so it will be easy to control my portions and limit my intake of rice or noodles.
I feel all ready to enjoy my guilt-free Chinese banquet.
