Chicken Salad W/Lettuce Wraps Recipe

Monday, March 9th, 2009

Notes:
Great use for leftover chicken. The grocery store rotisserie chicken works great for this !

Be creative and add your own additions with what you have on hand. Just keep track of the carbs you are adding in.

Servings: depends

Ingredients:
~Leftover chicken. Chopped or shredded. (Canned chicken also works)
~Mayo (add a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste)
~Onions. Chopped.
~Green onions. Sliced small.
~Celery. Chopped small.
~small Dill pickle. Chopped.
~Pecans. Roughly chopped. (Sliced or slivered Almonds is also yummy)
~Large leaf lettuce (Romaine, Green leaf, Red leaf,etc.)

+(My husband also likes chopped black olives and cheese added to his mixture. Be adventurous !)

Directions:
Mix chicken, mayo & seasonings with your additional ingredients.
The amount of chicken meat you have to use will determine the amount of goodies you add in. I use a little of each item. The celery and dill pickle are for texture. The green onions will give it a wonderful flavor. I like onions, so I add chopped yellow onions for flavor and texture (that can be up to you).
The pecans are a wonderful touch! It adds a sense of richness and makes you feel like you must be cheating! Great for texture and flavor.

~Mix all ingredients together and put in refrigerator for a while, to let all the flavors meld.
~When you are ready, take your bunch of lettuce and pull off full leaves. Take a couple of scoops of chicken salad and place in middle of leaf. Fold up the end of the lettuce, fold over the sides (it should look like a skinny burrito), and viola! -Yummy Goodness.

EASY Salsa Chicken Recipie! Recipe

Monday, February 16th, 2009

Notes:
Yummy sweet, spicy (or both) chicken recipie that is SO easy to make! You get a great variety of foods;

Chicken- Protein/Meat

Salsa- May be servings of veggies or fruits depending on type of salsa you like

Rice- Whole grains

Almonds- Great protein scource!

Olive Oil- Heart Heathy Good fats!

Servings: 1-4

Ingredients:
Brown Rice
Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast
Salsa (Tastes great with all kinds; pinneapple salsa, mango salsa, spicy salsa, bean salsa, etc)
Slivered Almonds
Honey (if you would like to make it a little sweet)
Olive Oil

Directions:
So easy! You CAN'T mess it up!

Take the (defrosted) chicken and cut it into medium to small pieces (I like mine well done, so I cut them in fajita size strips)
Start cooking the brown rice (if you need specific cook times, send me a message)
Add a little olive oil (2-4 tablespoons depending on size of pan) to a pan, warm up.
Add chicken to pan, cook until brown on both sides
Add salsa! Mix around the chicken untilcovered. Let it simmer until hot (usually a few minutes)
Add slivered almonds
Add honey if desired- about 1 'S' across the pan, mix.

Serve with rice!
If the chicken is defrosted, it only takes about 20-30minutes to cook the chicken+salsa (depending on size of chicken cuts) but the rice usually takes about 25-35minutes. So make sur eto start the rice before the chicken. I usually start the rice while I prepare the chicken for cooking.

Anaheim Fish Tacos Recipe

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Notes:
Spicy, flavorful fish tacos from AllRecipes provide an excellent and authentic alternative to the fried variety you find in restaurants. Add a little cheese, avocado or sour cream if you don’t mind the increased fat, or salsa for texture and flavor, but they’re delicious on their own. Feel free to use other types of fish like tilapia, spicier peppers like jalapenos or even habaneros, or experiment with the spice combination. If you end up with a little extra juice, just cook it down a little and use it like a sauce over the top!

Light Alfredo Pasta Recipe

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Notes:
A much lower-fat version of the alfredo that we all love; try changing the veggie combinations, adding red pepper flakes or other spices, or increasing the protein with a little lean grilled chicken. Lots of people like to replace the onion with another 3 or 4 cloves of garlic for a stronger flavor. Thanks to AllRecipes.
