    It's not really that healthy... But... It's really good.

    Angel chicken pasta

    About 3-4 boneless chicken breasts
    A package of cream cheese. I used 1/3 less fat
    A can of cream of chicken soup plus a can of water
    1 tbsp of chicken bouillon
    Italian seasoning to your liking. I used probably 1.5 or 2 tbsp

    And that's it. Serve over noodles of your choice. But if you make a higher chicken to sauce ratio, I like to just eat it by itself. It's soo good lol

    Try www.laaloosh.com. I've cooked something from this site every night this week and my family has liked most all of it. I did chicken cordon bleu tonight and they all LOVED it. It was in the crock pot. Super easy and delicious!

    Cooking chicken in the crock pot is perfect. Season it however you want with some olive oil or melted butter/marg and let cook on low for 3-4 hours. Cuts like butter and delicious in any recipe!

    You could totally use chicken for this...we use turkey breast loin because it's leaner...still moist because the way it's cooked. The official recipe is Jerked Turkey Soup...it does have a little zing to it, nice....

    1/4 tsp ground allspice
    1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
    1/2 tsp ground ginger
    1/2 tsp garlic salt
    1/2 tsp back pepper, divided
    1 lb uncooked boneless, skinless turkey breast, cut into 1 inch chunks (or chicken)
    1 clove minced garlic
    1 medium uncooked onion, chopped
    14 1/2 oz canned diced tomatoes, fire roasted with green chilies, undrained
    15 oz canned black beans
    2 cups fat free chicken broth
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 TBS line juice
    2 TBS fresh minced cilantro

    In medium bowl, combine allspice, cayenne, ginger, garlic salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Add turkey and toss to coat; set aside for 15 minutes.

    Place turkey in a 5 quart slow cooker; add any spices remaining in bowl. Add garlic, onion, tomatoes, beans, broth, salt and remaining 1/4 tsp black pepper; stir. Cover and cook on low setting for 6 to 7 hours. Stir in lime juice and cilantro; let sit for 5 minutes for flavors to blend.

    Crockpot Fajitas

    2 lbs chicken breast or tenders
    1 pkg fajita seasoning
    2/3 cup of your favorite salsa
    2-3 large sweet bell peppers, cut into strips

    Cut chicken into large chunks, place into crockpot. Mix fajita mix with salsa and pour over chicken. Cook on high for about 4-5 hours or on low about 7-8. 30- 60 minutes before serving place bell peppers on top. Once cooked, shred chicken with fork and mix in peppers.

    Makes about 6 servings at 150 calories and 18 grams of protein per serving.

    This dish was tasty topped with fat-free sour cream and cheese. It would be great on a salad, paired with some fat-free re-fried beans and rice

    The other night I was experimenting with the "Salsa Chicken" and I came up with this...


    6-8 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs
    1 Normal size Container of Salsa (any kind you like)
    1.5 Cups of Frozen Corn
    1 Can of Black Beans, Drained.
    1 whole package of the Laughing Cow- Queso Cheese (8 Wedges)
    Cummin
    Cayenne


    What I do is:
    Line the bottom of the Crockpot with the Chicken then cover with the Salsa.
    Add ontop the Black Beans and Corn- Cook low 6-8 Hours.

    Then- 10 Minutes before serving add the Cheese Wedges, Cumin and Cayenne Pepper to your Liking.

    My Dad LOVED this and he's hard to please!!

    I serve over Rice, with Tortilla Chips or in a Lettuce Wrap. YUM

    Should the chicken breast be frozen or thawed when you make this?

    Either Way!! It works well.. Although, some people say to stay away from the Frozen Meats in the Crockpot cause of bacteria, etc.

    I'm making a Crock pot Buffalo chicken lettuce wrap tonight for dinner,

    Ingredients:

    For the chicken:

    24 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
    1 celery stalk
    1/2 onion, diced
    1 clove garlic
    16 oz fat free low sodium chicken broth
    1/2 cup hot cayenne pepper sauce (I use my homemade hot sauce but Frank's works good.)

    For the wraps:

    6 large lettuce leaves, Bibb or Iceberg
    1 1/2 cups shredded carrots
    2 large celery stalks, cut into 2 inch matchsticks

    Directions:

    In a crock pot, combine chicken, onions, celery stalk, garlic and broth (enough to cover your chicken, use water if the can of broth isn't enough). Cover and cook on high 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.

    Remove the chicken from pot, reserve 1/2 cup broth and discard the rest. Shred the chicken with two forks, return to the slow cooker with the 1/2 cup broth and the hot sauce and set to on high for an additional 30 minutes. Makes 3 cups chicken.

    To prepare lettuce cups, place 1/2 cup buffalo chicken in each leaf, top with 1/4 cup shredded carrots, celery and dressing of your choice. Wrap up and start eating!

    Servings: 6 • Size: 1/2 cup chicken + veggies •Calories: 147.7 • Fat: 0.1 g • Carb: 5.2 g • Fiber: 1.6 g • Protein: 24.9 g • Sodium: 879 mg


    I got this recipe from Skinnytaste.com

    YUMMY! I made those last night and everyone loved them! I love skinnytaste.com! I've made several of her recipes and the whole family has loved them! Makes eating healthier a lot easier when the whole family loves the food you are feeding them!
