Savory - Tofu Chicken Alfredo

I was pretty upset about not having grains in my diet until I discovered that Tofu Shirataki Noodles are a thing, and they're not half bad! They're also very filling while being epicly low on calories, meaning you can splurge on toppings a bit and still feel good about yourself. This recipe is is from 20/20 Recipes page again, though I've modified it (and the nutritional info) a bit to make it....well, tastier (in my opinion, of course).

Egg on top makes things tastier. There's noodles and chicken beneath, I swear.

Ingredients:
Serves 2

1 8-oz Shirataki noodle package
2 wedges light Laughing Cow cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
2 eggs
8 oz cooked chicken breast, diced
~1 cup broccoli
1 lemon
olive oil, salt to taste
optional: 1 garlic clove, minced

*These are the ingredients for making 2 servings, though if you find yourself alone one night and very hungry, nobody will blame you for taking the whole packet of noodles for yourself and halving the rest of the ingredients. That's only 10 cals added to your dinner, and not much difference anywhere else except in your satiety levels.


To Make:
~ 15 minutes

Noodles:
- Set a small pot of water to boil for the noodles, and pan or skillet over fire to warm up.
- While water is warming up, cut noodle package and drain liquid.
- Once water is boiling, add noodles and cook for ~5 minutes
- After 5 minutes, noodles should be amply heated up. Drain water and mix the cheese wedges and the garlic powder with the noodles until the cheese is melted and well-incorporated.
- Distribute noodles into 2 bowls, and add 4 oz chicken breast to each.


Broccoli:
- Meanwhile, wash and cut broccoli into florets. Roll the lemon a bit to get the juices flowing, then cut in half and generously squeeze juice over broccoli. Add a bit of oil to the pan/skillet and saute broccoli (along with optional garlic) for a few minutes, until broccoli is tender.
- Once done, remove from heat and distribute evenly between noodle bowls.

Eggs:
- In same pan/skillet, crack 2 eggs and cook sunny-side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until whites are hard and yolk is semi-runny, a few minutes.
- Once done, take off heat and distribute one egg to each bowl.
