    I plug this recipe all the time but its just because its so freaking good. :tongue:

    Chicken (breasts or thighs) tiny smidgen of butter/smart balance with Ms Dash garlic & herb. Cover and bake for an hour, uncover and bake additional 10 minutes. Serve with yellow rice & veggie of choice. For a good sized meal, should put you at about 400 cals.

    I'm not sure about your kids. But for me I'd cut up chicken saute, add onion, garlic saute. Add a can of diced tomatoes, can of tomatoe sauce, some zucchini, eggplant, basil or oregano or both. Salt & pepper. Simmer 30 min. Serve over pasta or rice.

    Yum! I made wedges the other night with a similar recipe only added a little oregano, basil and parmesan cheese.

    sounds like my next try.

    I tried the spicy honey chicken thighs - that sauce would be awesome on fish or chicken it was so good - whole family loved it. It's posted on here

    you can also do the home fries with zucchini - lightly coat in cornmeal w/ egg whites for extra crispy-ness
