Chilli Chicken and brown rice

This was today's quick leftovers lunch.
In my fridge were :
1 chicken breast
A tub of ready cooked brown rice mixed with peas and sweetcorn
Half a bag of curly kale
A tub of mixed seeds - pumpkin, pine nuts, sunflower ( optional)
In my store cupboard are:
Chilli flakes
olive or sunflower oil
soya sauce

I cut the chicken breast into bite size pieces ( cant wait longer than that!), stir fried it with some chilli flakes. Added curly kale for a very quick stir, just till wilted. Drained these on kitchen paper whilst I
Stir fried rice mixture over heat to warm through
Beat the egg and quickly added it to rice in pan. Quick stir to cook egg through rice, then serve.
Sprinkle with soya sauce ( GF if you like) to taste.

I made this just for me :) I really like hot lunches, somehow they satisfy me longer and sandwiches just don't do it for me!

Broccoli and tuna

Lunch today was a wholegrain sandwich made with a tin of tuna mixed with a couple of spoonfulls of greek yogurt. Sometimes I add a little mustard. I find mayo too sweet and sticky and I really like the clean sharp flavour of the yogurt mixed with the tuna. Its good mixed with cottage cheese too, but thats better on ryvitas or crackers as the bread goes too mushy!
I added some iceberg lettuce and some florets of broccoli for extra crunch. Im trying to make sure I have proper veggies ie not just lettuce, they are much more satisfying.
Here's some interesting facts re broccoli:
Its been around for more than 2000 years

sium, folacin, iron and fiber. Broccoli has as much calcium ounce per ounce as milk and contains a few important phytochemicals: beta-carotene, indoles and isothiocyanates.
