I tried two more last night I think you guys will like!
Feta, Spinach, and Gouda Alfredo Chicken:
Ingredients:
2 TBS light 50 calorie butter
2 TBS flour to thicken
3 cups skim milk
6 laughing cow cheese wedges - I used Garlic and herb but swiss or tomatoe basil would also be great
7 Tbs reduced fat parmesan cheese
1 bag of boneless skinless chicken tenders boiled
1 cup feta cheese
2 cups raw spinach chopped
1/4 cup bread crumbs
12 slices smoked gouda cheese - I get mine at Sam's club, if you can't find the pre-sliced kind it was just 80 calories a piece, not sure if that helps or not.
- I dont realy measure my calorie free spices - but a liberal shaking of:
salt free - Greek Seasoning
Black Pepper
Adobo
Rosemary
Directions:
1. Boil the Chicken - I boiled mine overnight the night before in a crock pot, then drain and shred
2. Make a melt the butter and stir in the flour
3. Add the milk, laughing cow cheese, 5 TBS of the Parm, and spices, cook until melted and the sauce is starting to thicken
4. Add the shredded chicken, Feta, and spinach, stir until all is evenly coated
5. Spray a 9"X13" glass pan with cooking spray, and spread out the chicken mixture
6. Layer the Gouda evenly over the top,
7. Top with the bread crumbs and remaining Parm
8. Bake at 350 until it is warm and bubbly... this is only about 15 minutes if the chicken and sauce is warm... closer to an hour if you have made it the night before and put it in the refridgerator.
Makes 12 Servings, about 390 calories per serving, but they are decent sized servings! and I paired with:
Chive Mashed Cauliflower
Ingredients:
Whole Cauliflower head chopped into florets, do not use the stalks
1 cup skim milk
2 laughing cow garlic and herb wedges
1tbs chives
Directions:
Steam the Cauliflower until very soft
Blend the Cauliflower, cheese milk and chives in a large electric mixer until it looks like mashed potatoes.

indulgent egg salad sandwich:
one boiled egg, plus the white from a second boiled egg (97 cals)
two wedges LCC blue flavor (70)
one sandwich thin. (100)
total (267)
use one wedge to spread on the sandwich thin like a condiment, use the other wedge to mash up with the boiled eggs and make a creamy blue-cheese flavored egg salad. If you don't care for blue, you could do this recipe with the swiss, it's exactly the same, but I love the light blue cheese flavor with the boiled eggs, it reminds me of cobb salad flavors.
My go-to lunchtime fave!0 -

This is a recent favorite of mine. To replace bufflo wings with blue cheese dressing....here's my healthy version.
1-4oz grilled chicken breast ( I just use my george forman grill)
Spread 1 wedge of LCC light blue cheese on top then drizzle with 1 tsp of franks original hot sauce.
Soooooo yummy!0 -
How do you get your laughing cow cheese to melt?! No matter what I do with it, it doesn't seem to melt. I put it in/on omelets and it doesn't melt, I've put it in the microwave and it doesn't melt... I feel like the cheese would be so much more useful and versatile if it did! lol0

i just spread it on raw veggies like cucumbers and celery...yum!0

Courgette Soup
Boil courgettes in some chicken stock, whizz up with laughing cow!

Trivial, but good. My snack last night:
Quesadilla Snack = 180 cals
2 wedges Laughing Cow Queso Chipotle (70 cals)
2 soft corn tortillas (90 cals)
2 TBSP good salsa (maybe 20 cals)
Open and spread the cheese on one tortilla. Sandwich the other tortilla on top. Microwave 30-60 secs until hot and melty. Cut into 8 wedges. Eat with salsa.
bump! Oh my goodness! That sounds awesome0 -

spread it thinner. and cut it up when mixing it with pasta, it will break down easier.0 -
