Vietnamese Comfort Food

Ok, I have set myself a challenge. To adjust some of my favourite Vietnamese dishes into sub 350 calorie delights to fit into clean eating ethos. Pictured above are dishes made by others but once completed I will post my own pics of sub 350 Viet delights.

The recipes may seem blasphemous to those who delight in Vietnamese food and this may not be for you, but for those who want a taste without too much EXTRA work later in the gym then keep reading. Be warned, I have no actual cooking skills that could make me a masterchef, I like simple and tasty.... I am flying by the seat of my pants :). So follow me as I make a mess of my Kitchen and I break down some traditional Vietnamese recipes to suit the sub 350 ethos.
