    Campbell's soup website has a bunch of "pour from can, add, chicken, add rice" types of recipes. Even better - this link shows things you can replace in almost any recipe to make it lower in calories!! http://www.campbellwellness.com/links/healthy-substitutions.asp

    Chicken enchiladas

    1 8 or 10 pk large wheat tortillas
    1 can cream of chicken
    1 16 oz fat free sour cream
    1 jar salsa
    1/4 cup reduced fat shredded cheese
    1 lb. chicken breasts

    Bake the chicken until cooked through. Then shred with a fork. You can do this a day ahead if you like.

    Mix the soup, sour cream and salsa. Spread a little on the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan.
    Stir the shredded chicken into the rest. Slap a blob of the mix in the middle of a tortilla and roll it up. Put in pan. Squeeze the tortillas in if you need to. Any mix left, pour on top. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover w/ foil and bake @ 400 for 30 minutes until hot and bubbly. This is a hit with the whole family! It also freezes well.

    Weight Watcher cookbooks have super super easy and super tasty recipes that should be easy for you. I would go to a bookstore and flip through one. They are usually very limited in ingredients and time and already have the calorie content for you as well.

    I don't use the WW guidelines for weight loss anymore, but when I'm bored with cooking I pull out my two recipe books and can always find something good and quick to cook!
