So I found this book of Hungry Girl recipes at a friends apartment and I found myself copying these down by hand because the recipes seemed incredible for the cals. Anyone else heard of this book, used these recipes, etc? I'll share a recipe with ya'll that I thought was good since I crave these all the time:

Chili Cheese Nachos

7oz. baked tortilla chips
1 c low fat veggie or turkey chili
3/4 c salsa
1/2 c light soymilk
3 oz. fat free block cheddar cheese
1 wedge laughing cow original swiss cheese
2 Tbs fat free cream cheese
2 Tbs fat free sour cream

Place all the cheeses in a saucepan w/ soymilk. Heat over low heat stirring often until all the cheese has melted. Heat chili according to package directions. Microwave the chips until warm. Spread the chips on a platter and pour cheese over the chips. Top with chili. Spoon salsa and sour cream over the top.

(6 servings. Nurtritional Info: 216 cals. 3.5g fat. 671mg sodium, 36g carb, 4g fiber, 3g sugar, 13g protein)


Let me know if anyone has tried any of these, likes them, hates them, anything?
