    Im making Apple Sauce Chicken in the crock pot. I've never made it before but it sounded good. Hopefully its as good as it sounds :-)

    that does sound good! Can you post the recipe?

    I found it in the forums on skinnycrockpot.com


    4 skinless boneless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat
    1 cup applesauce (No Sugar Added)
    1/2 cup water
    small onion, sliced
    1 tablespoon minced garlic
    2 teaspoons apple cider or white vinegar
    pinch of cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

    Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook for 3-4 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low.

    Homemade chicken pot pie. Just poached the chicken and waiting for it to cool down so it can be chopped up and assembled with the rest of the ingredients

    venison burgers from the bucks my husband shot last year :o) we live in Marquette, MI - and it snowed ALL day yesterday, so I know the cold and wanting to grill outside... we have a cast iron thing that goes over the stove to cook them on - or when all else fails, good 'ol George Forman ;o)

    three shredded beef tacos, rice, with a protein shake, then a bolthouse farms mango protein smoothie to finish it off. Still need to find another ~300 calories to eat on top of that. Bleh.

    Turkey-Bean Chili Mix

    1 onion, diced
    2 bell peppers, one yellow, one green
    1.5 pounds of ground turkey
    2 14 oz cans of fire roasted tomatoes, undrained
    1 can black beans, partially drained
    1 can of refried beans with lime and chili
    spices (cumin, chili, garlic power, salt, pepper)
    1 lime, juiced

    In a medium-large cast iron pot, sautee onion and bell peppers in 1 T olive oil until soft. Set aside in a bowl.

    In the same pot, cook the turkey until browned. (I use low fat turkey, so I don't drain the pot before adding the next ingredients; adjust according to how much fat you want in your meal.) Add the onions and peppers back to the pot, add the cans of tomatoes, black beans and refried beans and stir until the refried beans heat and "melt" into the mix. Add spices and fresh lime to taste and heat through.

    Add any or all of the following toppings:

    sliced avocado
    shredded cheese
    chopped cilantro
    diced green onion
    sliced jalepenos
    sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)

    Serve in a bowl, in a tortilla, or as a dip. I serve it in a bowl with a side salad of dark green and red lettuces.

    :drinker: Chicken Cordon Bleu - lighter version, first time making it!

    sounds great - I've been wanting to make this but wondering how it won't blow the entire days calories!

    Tonight we're having lamb fillets smeared with mustard wrapped in streaky bacon and cooked on the BBQ.
