PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE THREAD BEFORE POSTING ANYTHING!

Recipe swap is a fun group where every week two recipes are shared by our members to be cooked by everyone else in the group!

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/454606-recipe-swap-week-18
If you make a recipe from week 18, please post your review of it on that post.

THIS WEEK wilsonshome AND TerryBeeBee ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SHARING RECIPES FOR THE REST OF THE GROUP TO MAKE.

Hopefully the recipes are posted today or tomorrow.

1. Sign up by making a post in this thread and I will add you to the member list.
2. Every week there will be TWO recipes/meals submitted by two members. Each member of the community should make the recipe and post their opinions about the recipe/meal, changes they may have made, etc.
3. Each week there will be a new recipe swap post on the MFP boards. This post will be the place that the members responsible for the recipes for the week will post them as well as the place where you should comment about the recipes/meals you cooked. If you make any substitutions or other changes in the recipe, tell us that as well. And by all means, if you take pictures and want to share them, do!

For more information and for the recipes from last week and the member list, check out here: https://docs.google.com/a/u.pacific.edu/document/d/1fqBAaFmtHqOq76VlmyASTE8LX-FnUnYWCYY7QTu6q1o/edit?hl=en_US

    OMG! I was totally thinking about throwing together an alfredo sauce using Greek yogurt. Maybe I will sub it for the milk and flour. Can't wait to try this.

    Slow Cooker Easy Cheesy Chicken
    6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
    2 (11 ounce) cans condensed cream of Cheddar cheese soup (I use Healthy Request)
    salt and pepper to taste
    1 teaspoon garlic powder

    Put chicken in slow cooker. Sprinkle with seasonings. Pour soup over top. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. I serve mine with broccoli. Yummy!

    The soup only adds about 58 calories and one gram of fat per chicken breast.

    I made this with Fontina cheese and Greek yogurt. I melted the cheese in the microwave but let it melt too fast so when I added the yogurt it cooled and got clumpy. The flavor was awesome, but it didn't really taste like alfredo. Should have stuck to the recipe, I guess. Anyway, thanks for sharing.
