    ooh im glad you liked it.

    you have a crockpot?

    chicken breasts on bottom
    can of corn
    can of kidney beans (or whateve ryou like)
    jar of salsa or picante sauce

    cook for however long you need to (all crockpots are different)

    last 30mins add in a block of light cream cheese - cook till melted

    eat plain, over rice, in a wrap...DELICIOUS...

    Actually, Google "costa vida chicken recipe". Make it in a crock pot with zesty italian dressing. Great stuff alone, in a salad or in a wrap.

    Ooh still got to try that! I have chicken most nights, but I don't think I do anything out of the norm. One Weight Watcher recipe I do over and over is: slit the chicken breast and stuff in one teaspoon of parmesan, one teaspoon of pesto and a couple of basil leaves. Wrap the chicken breast in a slice of parma ham, spray a tray with oil and bake for approx 25 mins on gas mark 5. What I tend to do is cook for 5 mins then add into the tray some peppers, mushrooms, red onions then chicken back in for another 20 - and you get all your veggies in there too. You can also throw some tomatoes in for the last 10 mins. I also love them stuffed with light philly, or I use them in stirfrys or omlettes...but that's me I don't ever seem to get bored of them!

    Bbq sauce and chicken in crockpot. Easy peasey!! It, along with brown rice and broccoli, is my lunch this week. Very good for the very lazy :)

    Also, google "chicken hurry." Brown sugar (I use diabeti-sweet alternative), ketchup, and onion soup mix are the ingredients off the top of my heat. Cook in oven and you're good to go.

    Roast in a 'Maggi So Juicy' bag - about 150 cals and 2 grams of fat per breast - garlic flavour is my fave! x

    I like to cut up the chicken and a potato into similar sized pieces and sautee them with italian spices. It's pretty basic, but really yummy. Just make sure to cook the potato for a while before you add in the chicken. And if it's looking dry, I put in some water so it's part steamed too.

    It's quick, cheap, and pretty low calorie. It would be great with veggies added in too :)
