Healthy alternatives include egg drop, miso, wonton or hot and sour soup, stir-fries such as shrimp chow mein, steamed brown rice, edamame, cucumber salad and stir-fried veggies. Steamed vegetable dumplings are also a healthy way to start off the meal. Order main entrees that feature vegetables as a staple -- for example, beef with broccoli or chicken with vegetables.
