    STEAK STROGANOFF ...

    Ingredients

    1 small can mushrooms – drained


    I don't like canned, what do you think the equivalent would be in fresh chopped? Do you think it would change anything?
    Thanks!! These look great, I can't wait to pull my crockpot out of hiding!

    CHICKEN TACO SOUP
    Just open a can of this and that and off you go!

    Ingredients
    2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
    1 can (15 oz) baked beans
    1 can (15 oz) kernel corn
    1 can (15 oz) kidney beans
    1 can (14 oz) black beans
    3 cans (14 oz) stewed tomatoes
    1 package taco seasoning mix

    Directions
    • Put chicken breasts in bottom of slow cooker (Crock-pot).
    • Mix all ingredients and pour over chicken.
    • Cook 6-8 hours on LOW heat.
    • Take chicken out and shred with knife and fork and mix back in.
    • Cook another 30 minutes.
    • Serve with low-fat shredded cheese and/or low-fat sour cream.

    Servings per recipe: 16 Per serving: 132 calories, 3 grams fat, 18% calories from fat, 15 grams carbohydrate. (Counts as 2 Weight Watchers points.)

    I make this, but I use more like 2 lbs of chicken breast (frozen work great, but fresh/thawed works too). It really shrinks up in the crockpot. ---you can also brown 1lbs of hamburger meat (beef or turkey) and use that instead. --- I also use pinto beans in place of baked beans and only 1 or 2 cans of tomatoes. Diced tomatoes work well too. I also add a diced onion and a little fresh minced garlic. The next time I make this, I will be using a homemade taco seasoning which will cut the sodium WAY down. Just google homemade taco seasoning, there are a bazillion recipes out there.

    Just use as many as you'd like, it won't really change the nutritionals. In fact, your sodium will probably be reduced. If it were me, I would buy 1 fresh package (i think they are 8oz) - slice them up and toss them in.
