    We do a shredded BBQ chicken in the crock pot every few weeks. My family loves it.

    1 package of the regular chicken breasts (usually 3 breasts. Don't use the thin cut)- leave them frozen- it shreds better
    1/2 bottle of BBQ sauce- we love the Sweet Baby Ray's - but it doesn't have to be
    1/2 cup water
    salt and pepper

    I wash the frozen chicken, place the cutlets in the crock pot, season the chicken with the salt and pepper, pour the bbq sauce in and the water and turn it on low for 6 hours.

    When I get home, I shred the chicken with two forks and make sure it's stirred well. My family eats this on the Arnold wheat sandwich rolls.

    Serving size- serves 6 (on a sandwich)
    With the roll the nutritional value is:
    203 calories
    25 carbs
    1 g of fat
    24 g of protien.

    when you put "Bump" in a post it sort of saves it under 'My Topics' for you, so you can find it later. Like a bookmark.

    I have a great one for chicken noodle soup, Throw in the crockpot - boneless chicken breast (I used 1lb), 2-32oz fat free chicken stock, chopped celery, carrots, onions. 1 bay leaf, 1 tsp thyme, 2 cloves garlic minced, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1 tbsp dried parsley. Cook on high until veg tender and chicken falls apart. take the chicken out and pull it with a fork, return to crockpot. Add No Yolk Egg noodles (half bag) and let that go until they are soft. Its super easy and really good!

    4 points for two cups not sure on the calories, but this is delicious and SUPER filling:)
