African Sweet Potato and Peanut Stew

Make it a Full Plate Meal: Serve your stew for an outdoor dinner. A small dessert can fit on the remaining 25% part of your plate. I'd pick a cookie.

75%water-fiber foods – sweet potatoes, onions, tomatoes, chickpeas, kale
25% foods – peanut butter, oil, cookie

Southwestern Chicken Foil Packets

Make it a Full Plate Meal:Open up your packet and dig in. A fresh apple will be a delicious dessert. Don't eat chicken? Leave it out and double up on the beans.

75% water-fiber foods –  brown rice, black beans, bell peppers, onions, salsa, apple
25% foods – chicken, cheese

Recipe Note: Choose either the chicken or the cheese, or reduce each amount to half to keep the 25% zone from spilling into the 75%.
