    I really enjoy mexican foods. This week, I cut up tenders into 1 inch pieces. I boiled them in rotel and seasoned blackbeans for about 30 minutes. I left the juice in the rotel, but I drained the black beans. You can add corn or other veggies if you like. The first night I strained out a scoop to put on a whole wheat tortilla with salsa, sour cream, and a little bit of cheese. The next day I left out the tortilla and ate it like a mexican stew and it was amazing both times. This is SUPER easy. You could even slow cook this one. It's packed with protein from the chicken and black beans, but be careful with the tortillas because they can pack the calories and carbs. Enjoy!!

    the tortillas I use are Tumaro's Low Carb Tortillas, 60 calories and quite yummy!

    Place a bag of frozen boneless skinless chicken breast in a crockpot
    add 1 can of fat free condensed cream of celery soup
    add 1 bag of peeled baby carrots

    set crockpot to cook for minimum of 6 hours
    serves at leasts 6


    Another way is to take equal parts grated Parmesan cheese and seasoned bread crumbs ( mix them together)
    Using boneless, skinless chicken breasts.... dredge them in the cheese/bread crumb mix
    Place on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes
    They are delicious.

    This cheese/bread crumb mix is also good to put on fish before baking it

    Knotts chicken stock, which comes in little containers (4 pack) that look like honey mustard dipping sauce from fast food places. put 2 in a bigger pyrex dish add a little water spread all over chicken and bake in the oven... awesome

    I take 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts and pound them down a bit. I slice 1/2 of a medium onion, a good sized zuchinni and place them in the bottom of a 9x12 pan. I put the breast on top and then pour a can of seasoned stewed tomatoes over top, sprinkle with salt/pepper to taste. Cover with foil and bake on 350 for 1/2 hour or until done. The are so moist and flavorful. I take the breast out and use the stewed part to put over brown rice - yummy and very low in calories.

    Put boneless, skinless, trimmed chicken breasts in a crockpot cover with water or stock. Cook on high 2-3 hours or on low 4-5 hours (too long and it will be mushy). Take out and shred. I do this in the beginning of the week and and have the chicken for all kinds of recipes.
    This is just what we do. Makes it so easy throughout the week and the chicken is perfect for tacos.
