Does anyone know or has anyone tried freezing LCC? I bought some in bulk at Sam's Club and i was thinking about freezing some for later use.
I don't know about LCC cheese... but I was over at my parents house the other day... mom had tried to freeze regular white cheddar cheese, and it turned out HORRIBLE! It must have done something to the bacteria in the cheese or something because the smell alone made me want to gag and it wouldn't hardly cut even though it was completely thawed... But once you start cooking with it... they have like a 6 month shelf life in the refridgerator... you will probably get hooked on it and have no need to freeze it0 -

I've been using Laughing Cow in place of cheese and mayo on my sandwiches. The texture when spread on toast or bread is the same as mayo or miracle whip, but with the flavor of cheese. Knocks out two high calorie items on a sandwich in one hit! I use D'Italiano Light bread (2 slices for 80 calories) and usually use one Garlic & Herb Laughing cow wedge.
As far as alfredo goes, I've found a recipie that I like to use that uses cream cheese instead of heavy cream. http://www.kraftrecipes.com/recipes/smarter-fettuccine-alfredo-91370.aspx# As is, it's 290 calories per serving (one cup serving), which is about the same amount as what are in lean cuisine microwave dinners, but those are usually around 330 for a meal. I'm sure if you used laughing cow in place of the cream cheese (though you'd need quite a bit!) you could probably cut the calories down even more.
The Laughing Cow also has recipes posted on their website under the "products" section, but I've not tried any of those.
Hopefully this post has helpful information and isn't just a bunch of stuff that other people have already posted.0 -

I have read the entire thread yet, so I don't know if anyone has put this. I like making a grown-up grilled cheese sandwich by spreading a wedge on the inside of Sara Lee Delightful bread with a slice of 2% cheese.0

GREAT THREAD!!! Tonight for dinner I took a few boneless skinless chicken breasts, butterflied them, seasoned them open with garlic salt, pepper, and parsley. I spread a sundried tomato basil LCC wedge in the middle of each one and closed it up. Seasoned the outside with same spices. Baked at 375 for 40 minutes.
This was a huge hit in my household!! My husband thought we were going off our diet for the night. He als thought I had taken the time to mix together a filling for the "stuffed chicken breasts."
Next time, I am going to do the exact thing with the fresco chipolte wedges using garlic poweder and chili powder, and I am going to put chopped red bell pepper in there too. I am excited to try it!
What's funny is I thought I was super creative and clever, and then I came across this thread.,, haha. I guess I'm not the first person to think of cooking with LC wedges afterall. LOL!0 -
I am definitely trying some of these recipes. MeSafford, if your husband loved your recipe, I am definitely making it for mine (picky eaters are wonderful!!) Since there are 12 pages of threads, I will add my recipe in hopes it hasn't already been added
Marinate boneless skinless chicken breast in wing sauce for approximately 4 hours. You can make your own healthy wing sauce, or buy one you find with the lowest amount of calories, carbs etc, depending on what you are counting!
Remove from marinade and throw excess away!
Grill the chicken
Once you remove from the grill add a slice of laughing cow blue cheese wedge on each breast and broil until melted!
This recipe rocks. The broiler will make the edges of the chicken crispy and it almost feels like you are eating WINGS!
I like to serve with carrots on the side.mmmm0
