Day 21: Balsamic BBQ Chicken

I have been really enjoying the chicken trios. I love these babies for several reasons: cheap grocery bills, quick prep time and DELICIOUS MEALS!  I have also been able to take advantage of really tasting the different ingredients that I normally wouldn't 'savor' during a meal.  The balsamic taste on this chicken was awesome and I highly recommend it. Here is the skinny: \

Ingredients:
6 oz of chicken
1 Tbsp BBQ Sauce with less that 45 calories
1Tbsp Balsamic vinegar

Instructions:
1. Cook chicken in skillet until fully cooked (about 15 minutes)
2. Combine balsamic vinegar and bbq in a small bowl
3. Once the chicken is cooked, spread mixture on top of the chicken. Cook for about 2 minutes and flip the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes.
4. Serve on plate and put access mixture on top of chicken.
ENJOY!

1 Chicken Breast: 7 PP

 This whole dinner was only 10 PP AND it took 30 minutes to make.

The Uncle Ben's 90 second rice has become a hit in our house! There are so many flavors and it only takes 90 seconds to make! LOVE IT!

Day 20: Naked Chicken Parm

This week for our dinners I decided to try HUngry Girl Chicken Trios. As mentioned previously mentioned these are great dinners for Thursday or Friday because they are very easy to make. I also learned when you plan your main meals with less that 12 ingredients FOR THE ENTIRE week, it makes the grocery bill $80 less than normal:)  Now thats a bandwagon I could jump on:)
Here is the skinny:

Ingredients: 
5 oz chicken breast
1 WW string cheese
1/4 cup LF marinara sauce

Instructions: 
Cook chicken breast in skillet until fully cooked. Meanwhile, chop string cheese until it is cut into little pieces. I found using a food processor works great!

Once chicken is cooked put marinara sauce  and then cheese on top of chicken.  Cover and cook until cheese is melted and enjoy- 1 chicken breast- 8 PP

I also added 2 oz of this awesome pasta I got this weekend at the Lavendar Festival in Blanco, Tx. It is VERY GOOD for what is considered a "healthy" pasta! 4 PP for 2 oz:)

Total Meal: 12 PP

Day 19: Crispy Nacho Chicken

I love love love easy to cook meals on Thursdays! It encourages me to cook dinner instead of going out to eat since isn't going to be hard since i planned ahead! As I have mentioned before, Hungry Girl has a section of the book dedicated to the "trios".  When I am making my list for the week I tend to plan these meals towards the end of the week:)   I made this "nacho chicken" and it was surprisingly easy and combines some our Mexican food favorites: chips and salsa! Here is the skinny:

Ingredients
5 oz chicken breast

1/4 cup of salsa

Day 18: Exploding Chicken Taquitos

Who hasn't been to a party and had those fabulous full of flavor fat! But of course we eat them and love them. We go to the store and buy some and indulge some more:) Well I have a solution for you! I made these babies fora  Cinco de Mayo party at my office. They were a big hit!


Ingredients:
8 small (6-inch) yellow corn tortillas
9 oz of chicken breast shredded
1/2 cup salsa
1/3 cup shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
1/4 tsp. dry taco seasoning mix
Optional: red enchilada sauce, additional salsa, fat-free sour cream, for dipping


Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a medium bowl, combine the chicken and salsa, and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Remove chicken mixture from the fridge, and drain any excess liquid. Add cheese and taco seasoning, and mix to combine. This is your filling. Set aside.

Prepare a baking sheet by spraying with nonstick spray, and set it aside.

Dampen two paper towels, and place tortillas between them. Microwave for about 1 minute, until tortillas are warm and pliable.

Take one tortilla (keep the rest between the paper towels), spray both sides lightly with nonstick spray, and lay it flat on a clean dry surface. Spoon about 2 heaping tbsp. of filling onto the tortilla. Spread it evenly across the entire surface, and roll tortilla up tightly, so that you have a cigar-shaped tube. Secure with toothpicks and place seam-side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

Bake for 14 - 16 minutes, until crispy. Allow taquitos to cool for 5 minutes. If you like, dunk in enchilada sauce, salsa, or sour cream!

I also was waiting for when I had guests but I decided what the heck and started looking for the ingredients:) Turns out this was not hard to make and made it in about 15 minutes and woke up to a FABULOUS smelling house.

While this was good it was nothing like eating WINGS or MAC and CHeese but it was the perfect substitute! I have learned that when dealing with Mac and Cheese the likelihood of it tasting healthy is pretty high.  This was one of the first Hungry Girl recipes that I felt was "healthy". My wonderful husband loved it but at this point (we are about to hit our 1 year anniversary) he has learned to always say he likes what i make:) I liked this recipe but did not LOVE it. You win some and loose some however, I would say this was a tie:)

Evenly distribute about half of the spinach-ricotta mixture among the cups, smoothing the surfaces with the back of a spoon.

Evenly distribute about half of the turkey mixture among the cups, smoothing the surfaces with the back of a spoon. Top each turkey layer with 1 tbsp. mozzarella cheese. Place another wonton wrapper into each cup, lightly pressing it down on the cheese layer and along the sides of the cup, letting the edges fall over the pan. Repeat layering by evenly distributing remaining spinach-ricotta mixture and turkey mixture among the cups. Top each cup with 1 tbsp. mozzarella cheese.

Day 7: Three-Cheese Cannelloni

I have never had a cannelloni before and man I was missing out.

Carefully pound chicken through the bag with a meat mallet or heavy can, until uniformly about 1/3-inch thick. Repeat with second cutlet.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, Italian seasoning, and remaining 1/2 tsp. garlic. Mix well and set aside.
