1 Tbsp parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp fat-free ricotta cheese
1/2 cup broccoli slaw (pre-packaged shreddded broccoli stems)
1/3 cup canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
pepper to taste

Optional Additions:
2 oz of chicken will increase protein to 25 grams
2 tablespoons of tofu will increase protein by 10 grams and fiber by 2 grams
2 additional tablespoons of cheese will increase protein by 4 grams
1/3 cup additional chickpeas will increase protein by 4 grams and fiber by 3 grams
